Dearest Parents,
Please understand all of our guidelines are for the safety of you, your child and our staff.
*We are asking that only 1 parent enter with 1 child. This helps me limit the head count and germs in the building and helps me keep up with wiping and cleaning things.
*Please enter the building with your masks, once you are seated and away from others you can lower it if needed.
*Please do not enter the building if you or your child are showing signs of a cold. If your child is fine you may drop them off at the door and I will be happy to assist them with shoes and walk them to your car after class.
*If you or your family has been exposed to COVID-19 please do not come to class for the recommended time frame.
* Classes that take place in the Green room have the online option. Please let me know if you need your online link to come onto the online class.
* Students will need to have a mask to walk back the hallway. They will keep the mask on until they are in their square. Once in the square they may lower the mask to the chin. When they dance across the floor, they will be pulling them back up.
* If you are new to the studio please note between classes I steam and wipe the studios I may not be at the front deck but I will return.

Dearest Dance Families,
Hello, I wanted to give some reminders about Covid-19 guidelines for the studio. We do not follow the school closures. If we are going to be closing for any reason (sickness, weather ect.) I will post it first on our Facebook page, I will then call or send text messages out. With that being said we are entering cold and Flu season. Please understand all of our guidelines are for the safety of you, your child and our staff.

Dearest Families,
Hi! We have finished our 2020 and are starting our 2021 season. We are going to be opening next week Monday, October 12th for our 2021 season. We will be limiting our class sizes....we will still be limiting our parents in the building also. 1 parent per 1 child. Our large studio will have online or in person class options. When you need to stay at home you wont miss a beat! If you are still wanting activity but not yet want to be out ...we have a spot for you online! We are one of the only studios in our area that offer this option. Not only do we offer online but, I personally Clorox chairs handles railings bathroom between classes. I also steam clean the floors between groups changing to cut back on kids exposure to germs. We have your families health as a top concern. Classrooms are marked with appropriate distancing squares to insure little ones know how close they are to each other. We have also limited our class sizes down to 6-8 in a class! We make sure they are having fun while socializing in a safe environment. Masks are still required, the kids will have them up when gathered together and can have them on the chin while 6 feet apart in their personal square. I am so excited to start our 2021 season see you soon!

Dearest Dance Families,
I want to give some clarity on how the next few weeks might look. What we are doing and what you can do and expect. We will be working together to keep everyone safe and healthy. That being said; I have set up an intense cleaning regiment and I will be setting up some restriction. I will be using Clorox and steaming the floors nightly. I will also be using Clorox on all walls nightly as well as chairs, bathroom, door handles, barres & stereos throughout the night. We recommend washing or sanitizing hand before and after class. We will be limiting the amount of people in the building; One parent per child if needed ( I can walk your child to your car ) and adults over 60 in poor or weakened immune systems are asking for them not to enter. We are asking if you are coughing, sneezing or sick please stay at home. If you come in and appear sick during scheduled class, you will be asked to leave the building. Even if you feel well please don’t chance a spreading the germs. Starting as of today we will not be having Gym or Cheer classes on Monday or Tuesday these classes requires to much close contact and sharing of multiple mats/props during classes. Our Sr. Adv. classes will be limited to their day only (Monday). We will not be having adult classes until further notice. I understand and respect family’s decisions if you need to stay at home during this time. I will be looking into live broadcasting so that you will still be able to take classes from your home. Hopefully by April.
