Current Status

Summer Classes & Intensive

We are excited to be back to in-person classes for our summer classes and camps!  Modifications in class capacity and curriculum material have been made with great care to ensure our return to in-person classes is as safe as possible, with options for families to continue dancing at home.

• Lobby closed to visitors (anyone not enrolled in a class and coming to or leaving class)

• Classes shortened by 5 minutes to allow disinfecting, hand hygiene, and social distancing in class transitions

• Social distancing in classes by marked spots on the floor in studio rooms

• No shared props that cannot be easily and thoroughly disinfected after each use

• No food consumed in the building (water bottles only)

• Water fountains disconnected

• Additional cleaning and disinfecting

• Face masks are recommended for visitors and for dancers and staff in the lobby and public areas between classes

• Added hand sanitizer stations at each entrance, required hand hygiene at entry to building for all students and staff

• Students and staff are required to stay home if they show any flu-like symptoms, a fever of 100.4 or greater, or if they have been exposed to someone with COVID-19.  There is no negative consequence for students or staff staying home for these reasons.
