STUDIO SAFETY GUIDELINES

	•	Participants should not have shown signs or symptoms of COVID-19 in the past 14 days. Participants showing any symptoms of COVID-19 will be asked to go home and may return once a medical professional has ruled out COVID-19.

	•	Participants should not have had close or sustained contact with anyone who is sick within 14 days.

	•	While in the building and studio, everyone is required to wear a mask at all times.  You may exit the building to take a mask break.  

	•	Participants are asked to arrive shortly before class to minimize waiting inside the building/studio.

	•	Participants should be prepared to start class as soon as they arrive and are asked to wear clothing that minimizes dripping sweat and hairstyles that minimize spraying sweat.  

	•	There is no longer access to the small control room to change and store personal items.  

	•	Participants are also asked to limit the items they bring with them to a water bottle and purse/dance bag. 

	•	Social distancing will be observed at all times when in the studio and while dancing. 

	•	If you have allergies causing increased sneezing and nasal discharge, we ask that you stay home as this increases the risk of spreading droplets.

	•	Before entrance, the participant’s temperature will be taken with a no-touch thermometer and will be asked to clean their hands using the hand sanitizer provided, or standard hand washing.

	•	If you have traveled, please refer to CDC, state, and county recommendations.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PROTOCOL

	•	Windows are to remain open and fans/air purifiers on for the duration of class and for thirty minutes after to allow for maximum air circulation. 

	•	Class size is limited to five participants.

	•	Class start and end times will be staggered, to ensure no more than five participants will be entering or exiting the studio at all times.
