  To have a custom template made: ask your software developer, or consult with a freelancer (I'll happily do this - john@civifirst.com) or CiviCRM Partner (https://civicrm.org/partners-contributors).

Answers.Body: <p>CiviCRM inherits most of its look and feel from the CSS code in your CMS's theme - in your case Joomla.  By default, CiviCRM's labels won't do this.  Your Joomla web designer should be able to modify their CSS to prevent this happening.</p>

  The field names shown are "SS Dance Class - 1st choice" and "... 2nd choice", etc.</p>
