Thank you for your continued understanding and support as our main goal is to keep everyone healthy and safe, but to do so we need the corporation of everyone.
Covid Guidelines
1. There will be hand sanitizer available at the studio. We will follow the CDC guidelines for cleaning and sanitization. We have purchased the correct cleaning products recommended by the CDC and are EPA approved for all hard surfaces, bathrooms and also for our Marley floors and will clean the studios surfaces in between classes.
2. Masks are no longer required to enter the studio. Dancers are also not required to wear a mask in class. Masks are optional.

4. We have H13 HEPA Air purifiers for all three studios and one in the lobby area.
5. The wait areas will continued to remain closed for the 2024/2025 season. We have determined through the years of the wait areas being closed due to Covid that there is less distraction for our students, less bathroom breaks and instructors are able to get more done in the classrooms. There will be no water coolers in the studios. Students may bring in their own water (ONLY) labeled clearly with their name. The NO FOOD policy will be strictly enforced.
6. The bathrooms will be cleaned during the day and evening and will have anti-bacterial soap and hand sanitizer for use.

8. Guidelines for Pre-School class ages 4-6, Into Ballet/Jazz ages 5&6 and Acro & Hip Hop ages 5+ – The first & second week of class, one parent at a time with their child will be allowed in the studio to get the child settled in the class. Once the student is in class, the parent must leave. We are asking that parents remain in the parking lot for the first couple weeks, just in case we need to call you regarding any issues with your child, such as bathroom use as our staff is not allowed to take them to the bathroom.
9. Guidelines for the Creative Movement class (45-minute class) – One parent/guardian will be allowed in the class with their child.
10. All parents/guardians will have to sign a Covid -19 waiver form for in-studio classes for the 2024/2025 season. The form can be found on our website under recent news.
11. Dancers or staff experiencing any health symptoms should not attend class. The symptoms include; fever, cough/shortness of breath, excessive sneezing, fatigue, loss of taste or smell, body aches or headache.
