Temporarily Suspended Activities: There are no activities suspended due to PHO orders.

Now no capacity restrictions for Birthday Parties: Recent reopening is allowing us to run our birthday parties with no restrictions on the numbers of adults or children. Vax Passports are still required for any adults who are staying. Children need to be signed in. Masks optional.

Do not attend if you have any symptoms.

Gymnasts can come to a make up class at a later date. Dancers may join by zoom. Ask for instructions.

Hand Hygeine:

Please wash hands or use hand sanitizer before and after classes.

Directional Arrows: Please enter through the main gymnastics entrance, and exit through the birthday party room/ dance entrance.

Please No Spectators: Although we will no longer as you to leave, to reduce crowding, we request that parents do not watch classes. Exceptions:

1. Child needs you for emotional support. 2. Child needs assistance such as for parent-and-tot class.

3. Feel free to watch the first class or two until you are all comfortable. Please only one adult. Do not come with other family members unless you have no other option.

Masks Masks are now optional in the gym, foyer, and for birthday parties. We are asking that masks continue to be worn in dance classes until Saturday, March 19, matching the timing of schools. This gives each dance class at least one time to discuss whether they wish to continue with masks, and we ask that people respect the wishes of any other families who are not yet ready to have everyone take them off. Masks will be optional in dance classes beginning Monday, March 21, according to what each class decides.

Gymnastics Classes will end 5 min early. Next class wait in couch area until your turn.

To help separate the classes to reduce exposure, students will be dismissed 5 minutes before the end of class so they have time to get shoes on and wash hands before the next class starts. Next class please wait until the area in front of the cubbies is clear before passing through.
