Style 1:
Start with the scarf behind you. Take each end of the top of the triangle in your hands so that the long point is centered in the back. Pull the scarf over your shoulders like a shawl. Holding onto the ends, bring them across your bust, crisscrossing them in the middle. Tuck the ends under the sports bra and secure them with pins. Note: As you tuck the ends, make sure the fringe falls nicely into place along your bust line.

Style 2:
Start with the scarf behind you. Take each end of the top of the triangle in your hands so that the long point is centered in back. Bring the scarf in front, under your armpits, and crisscross it in front of your bust. Bring the ends up around your neck and secure it in back with a pin.

Style 3:
This style gives you a more covered look for conservative shows and is a great choice for beginning dancers. Start with the scarf in front of you. Holding each end in your hands, bring the ends around to your back, making sure the long point of the triangle is centered in front. Tie or secure the scarf in back. (You may need a friend to help you with this.) If you are smaller busted, another variation you could do would be to bring the ends back up over your shoulders, covering the bra straps, and secure them to the top of the scarf in front.
