Please check out our notes regarding the Covid 19 outbreak.

We have been closely following the government advice to ensure we take a safe approach to managing the situation in relation to our classes.

Obviously it is a fast moving situation so should advice change and negatively impact our events we will try to advise you via email and our facebook page and group.

Please do not join us  for classes or social dancing if you have any symptoms, or have had close contact with anyone who has developed symptoms in the past 14 days.
See Stay at home guidance

Please inform us immediately if you have danced with us in the last 14 days and have a developed symptoms of the virus. 

Do not touch the face of other dancers, or your own.

Please wash your hands regularly - this remains the single most effective way of avoiding contracting the virus

We will provide hand sanitiser (whilst our supplies last) but washing your hands with soap and water is still the most effective method.  We recommend that everyone wash their hands at the beginning and end of the event at a minimum, before handling food or eating, after handling cash or your phone, and of course after every visit to the bathroom.

The health and safety of our dancers is very important to us and we will continue to monitor the situation very closely.

Phone hygiene: Phones should be regularly cleaned, check online for methods. Don't use alcohol based hand gel on the screen, you will ruin it!
