Class Etiquette
Dance Love Studios aims for classes to always be fun and engaging. For classes to also be safe and provide proper dance training, they also require certain etiquette:
​
Please:
​
- turn off phones (and smart watches!) during class. This is your time to dance. Don't let it be interrupted by devices.
- arrive a few minutes early, so that class is ready to begin on time;
- don't have chewing gum (or any food in your mouth) during class. (If you have a medical reason that requires a snack, please finish it before you resume dancing. We don't want anyone choking during class!);
- limit chatting to certain times. Part of connecting with other dancers is always going to involved having a bit of a chat! And that's encouraged! Just please just be aware of not chatting when you teacher is trying to guide you in something;
- stick to the group drink breaks. (If you are desperate for some water and it's not an allocated "drink break", please just discreetly get some water from your drink bottle and then return to dancing);
- avoid wearing strong fragrances
- give yourself the grace to be a student by allowing yourself to learn and find joy in the process; and
- be respectful of your teacher and other dancers (this one really goes without saying! We know that the adults who come to Dance Love Studios are kind, encouraging, welcoming people!).
