The ongoing Covid-19 situation
We would like to re-assure our members that we continue to work in accordance with the latest government Covid-19 guidelines.
Please note:-
There is no longer any need to reserve or pre-book our Classes or Social Dances and we are now welcoming new and returning pupils.
Both our venues are continuing to adhere to basic Covid guidelines, including regular cleaning and offering hand sanitising units in their foyer areas. You no longer need to wear a face covering in either venue, but it is of course, your choice whether to wear a mask whilst attending our Classes or Dances.
Please DO NOT attend any class or dance if you, or anyone in your household have symptoms of Covid-19, feel unwell or should be self-isolating.
Your safety is very important to us at DanceAway
