COVID Safety Protocols
Y'all, we haaate it, but COVID is still a thing.
👉🏽all attendees must verify their vaccination status in order to access the ticket link (we now require proof of a shot dated 2022 or 2023).
👉🏽If buying tickets at the door, you must be able to show proof of a 2022/2023 dose to the door volunteer, even if you have already verified your status with the studio for classes. You can avoid this by buying an advance ticket!
👉🏽masks 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 they are still elevated. We base our studio mask policy on those numbers)
Studio Shoe Policy
--Please remove your street shoes in our waiting area, before entering the studio.
-- If you don't own dance shoes, please bring a clean pair of sneakers with non-marking soles to change into for classes/dances. This will help us keep rocks, grit, and dirt off the floor.
The following types of shoes are absolutely prohibited inside the RVA Swing studio:
- NO stilettos or other spiked heels. Not only are these inappropriate and dangerous footwear for swing dancing, they also tend to gouge and dent wood floors.
- No home-made duct tape soles. Yeah these might work great for a bit, but as you dance, you wear through the tape and leave sticky adhesive gunk for everyone else to dance on. No bueno!
Reserve your spot at the dance
❤Advance tickets streamline your check-in at the dance & give us the warm fuzzies.❤
