BRAVO BASH - AUGUST 29th

  Please be assured that for at least a while we will continue to offer options for online classes for families that feel more comfortable dancing with us that way. You can read about those options below.

  Please also know that we are approaching this return to the studio VERY carefully, and have thoughtfully mapped out - in consideration of both local and CDC guidelines - the many steps outlined below to keep our Tutu School students, families, and faculty safe. As things evolve, we will as well.

  Thank you so much in advance for your help and cooperation with our policies and practices for safe & healthy twirling.


1. Smaller classes. We are reducing the size of all of our classes. 

 

2. Temperature checks before class. We will be screening ALL students - and anyone in the waiting area - with a contactless thermometer, prior to entering Tutu School. Parents will be the ones testing their dancers. Thank you for your help with this!


3. Socially distanced twirling. In addition to making our class sizes smaller, we've re-organized the dots and place markers we use to help students identify their spots in the studio, and re-structured parts of class to ensure students are at least 6 ft. away from one another throughout class. In Tutu Toddlers classes we'll also ask for caregivers assistance with this as much as possible.


4. Magical masks. All Tutu School teachers will be wearing fun, masks when classes resume. In addition, we ask that any adults inside of Tutu School mandatory. We will add chairs outside for those that prefer this option. Children under the age of 2, it is not recommend as it is a safety hazard. Children over the age of 2 recommended, not mandatory while working out, however based on the guideline mandatory when entering and exiting. We will allow for parent discretion. This is based on the new guidelines released today. We will focus Please call with questions or concerns 909-451-8198.  


5. Tiny Audiences. We ask that only ONE family member accompany a dancer to class. If at all possible (and if your child is not in a class that requires caregiver participation), we are asking grown-ups to please drop off your dancer for class and to wait outside, in the car, or to run an errand nearby. We can even move benches outside during the classes. However we will have limited space inside for seating as well. We thank you in advance for keeping the number of people in our waiting area to an absolute minimum. Please arrive no more than 5 minutes before your dancer's class time to avoid having extra bodies waiting around, and to give our staff enough time to sanitize and disinfect between classes.

 

6. A lot of other important changes... From hand sanitizer for each student before class to extra studio cleanings and details like individual crayon containers for Coloring Time, we've gone through every aspect of our classes and re-considered them in light of the current conditions. We're leaving no stone unturned in making sure that our classes are safe and healthy dancers, families, and teachers.

 

  PLEASE stay home from class if anyone in your family is exhibiting any symptoms of illness, and away from the studio for 14 days if there has been any known or potential exposure in your family to COVID-19. We will offer streaming options for your dancer.

  To that end, and for any families who still feel better dancing from home, we will still be providing options to dance with us online. We will have the teacher continue to log in as available.

  We know this is a lot of information. We know everything is a lot right now. We're so grateful for your continued support and for your help with our transition into this next "new normal." 


Please call the Studio with any Questions or Concerns you may have.
