Dance Shoes

ballroom dancing question?

So, I’m about to start training/lessons for ballroom dancing in the hopes to start teaching. I have a lifetime of dance experience, but this will be something new (and yes, I understand how long it will take me to learn to teach)
So, I haven’t bought my shoes yet, and I have my first ‘lesson’ on thursday, what should I wear, etc?
Can I just wear like, warm-ups, or do I have to wear like, a dress? This is totally different from throwing my hair up for pointe class, and wearing ripped up tights, lol.
I just need a little advice on what to expect, and if there is any place I can buy some cheap Ballroom Shoes, (payless?) I’m trying to keep it under 20 bucks, (I’m broke!)
Thanks for any advice! I literally have no idea what to expect!

Wear what ever you are comfortable in.
Trackies and a tee shirt will be fine
But with the shoes you will probably have to invest in a good pair
Look on the internet and ask other girls in your class where they go their shoes from would be a good start
