STUDIO POLICIES

COVID-19 Policies

We are THRILLED to open our doors again to the public. Please keep the following policies in mind moving forward and stay up to date with our email list for policy updates and changes.

**UPON ENTRY TO THE STUDIO:** Street shoes will NOT be allowed in the studio, so please bring your sambas or other sneakers in to change into once you reach our lobby. There will be several hand sanitizer stations available to you as well as the bathrooms to thoroughly wash hands. The sanitizer solution includes 70% ethyl alcohol, above and beyond the CDC's guideline of 60%.

**CONTACTLESS PAYMENT/REGISTRATION:** All registrations and payments have converted to an online, no contact format available directly through our website.

**LOBBY/GUESTS**: Our lobby is back OPEN. Please be mindful of others in the lobby and continue social distancing.

**FACE MASKS/ CLOTH COVERINGS:** All fully vaccinated participants, parents, and staff no longer are required to wear a mask at Playstrong Studio.

A person is fully vaccinated when 14 days (2 weeks) have passed since their final dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (i.e. their second Pfizer or Moderna dose or their first Johnson & Johnson dose).

Fully vaccinated participants wanting to remove their mask for classes will need to provide proof of vaccination status prior to the start of class by either bringing in their card/copy or emailing their card to playstrongstudio@gmail.com where it will be kept on file for future reference. Card will only need to be provided once.

Studio Expectations

DRINK POLICY: No food or drink other than water is allowed in the ballet room or tumble rooms. Drinks may be left in the lobby during classes.

FOOD/ALLERGY: All food brought in must be peanut/treenut free and only eaten in the lobby area. Please clean up after yourself.

HAIR/CLOTHES: Hair MUST BE tied back, off of your face. Clothes should not hinder movement or the ability to be spotted. Due to the various stunts performed in class, we strongly recommend wearing compression shorts underneath your shorts and modest tank tops/tshirts.

FOOTWEAR: Addidas Sambas are required. If you forget your sneakers you will be sitting out. NO BARE FEET (with the exception of tumble tots).

DROP OFF/PICK UP: Please arrive 5 minutes before class and pick up 5 minutes after class has ended. Children under 13 years old are not permitted to leave the 2nd floor without a parent/guardian.

CELL PHONE USE: Students are not permitted to have cellphones in class and are encouraged to leave them at home. Playstrong Studio LLC is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged phones. We have a landline phone for emergency use.

BEHAVIOR POLICY: Disrespectful and/or vulgar vocabulary will not be tolerated. Repeated disruptions to class may cause instructors to remove a child from class. If a child is engaging in disruptive behavior, Playstrong instructors will inform the parent/guardian two times. The third offense will cause Playstrong instructors to remove the child permanently from the class. Monies paid will not be refunded.
