COVID-19 Safety Procedures and Policies
As of 7-9-2022
Main Stage Dance will continue to update their Safety Procedures and Policies to coincide with the COVID-19 mandates from the State of Michigan. Our studio is taking every precaution and adhering to current state policies and laws. As the COVID-19 landscape changes, so too will our policies.
In the event the studio must be closed due to mandatory state shut down, all classes will be held via Zoom until the state reopens our phase of businesses. Refunds will not be issued for classes being taught via Zoom.
Cleaning our studio:
· Floors are wiped with disinfectant after every class that changes students and at the end of every day.
· The bathroom will be disinfected every hour.
· The cubbies will be sprayed with disinfectant after every class.
· Barres will be disinfected after every class.
· Trash will be dispensed at the end of every day.
Keeping everyone safe:
• Parents, before bringing your child to dance class please consider if your child or anyone in your household has the following symptoms: fever, chills, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, loss of taste or smell, cough, shortness of breath, muscle/body aches or sore throat. If yes, please stay home.
• If anyone in your household has come in close contact with a confirmed or probable COVID-19 case, please stay home.
• Wearing a mask inside the studio will be optional for everyone.
• We are still trying to minimize the amount of people in the studio so please consider limiting who comes in with your dancer. We will continue to have supervised dismissal out the back door after every class, should you decide to pick up your child from the door.
• Hand sanitizer is available in every room for dancers and teachers.
• COVID-19 safety signs will be posted at every entrance, exit and throughout the studio.
• Doors will be open for air flow, when weather permits.
• Water bottles are to be labeled and stored in dance bag.
A typical day at the dance studio:
1. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before class, enter from the back door.

4. Students will place their dance bag in a cubby inside of the dance room.
5. The teacher will then assign a student to a spot at the barre or center floor that is adequate for dancing.
