COVID Safety Protocols
Your safety is very important to us & we are not playing around with this omicron variant:
ππ½advance tickets only: sorry, but no walk-ins
ππ½all attendees must verify their vaccination status in order to access the ticket link (we now require proof of a booster/3rd dose if you are eligible for one)
ππ½masks are required at all times while inside the building until further notice** (Social dancing is a high-risk, close-contact activity. We are keeping an eye on the actual case numbers in our area and we base our studio mask policy on those numbers)
**we are in a surge right now, but if case numbers return to what we consider a low threshold, we may try out a "test or mask" policy at a future dance. IF we decide to try this, details will be provided to registered attendees in your Dance Info email, which is sent to you the day of the dance.
Schedule:
6:30pm: doors open
7pm: Beginner Lindy Hop lesson (included with admission)
8:pm: DJ'd music for social dancing
10ish: dance ends, doors close
If you plan to take the beginner lesson, please arrive no later than 7pm!
No partner or dance experience is needed to take the beginner lesson or to attend the dance.
The beginner lesson is a Rotating Partner format class, meaning you will dance with everyone in the class, even if you come with a partner.
Sliding Scale Admission
We've implemented a "sliding scale" payment structure for all of our events. You can choose to pay the regular admission price of $8 or our discounted admission of $5. Those in a position to support others in the community can choose to give a little extra by selecting $10 admission, which helps to subsidize the discounted admissions and sustain the studio space.
We also have several volunteer spots available on the registration form. Work an hour shift at the check-in table and get into the dance for free!
Reserve your spot at the dance
All reservations must be made in advance & pre-paid online
(No walk-ins or paying at the door, sorry!)
