NASD Safety Plan

Opening statement

We are very excited to welcome you back for our 45th season.  We have had the studio professionally disinfected and can’t wait to get back dancing.  The safety of our students and staff is our top priority as we share our joy of dance.  Below is an outline of our procedures for safety.

  1. Our Fall schedule will be drop off and pick up only (with the exception of limited visitors for our preschool, pre-k and kindergarten classes). Parents of these students are welcomed to walk their dancer into the building, while wearing a mask, and get them settled.
  2. Please arrive only 5 minutes prior to your class. Our lobby is closed.  Please also try to not arrive after your class has already started.
  3. When you arrive, you will immediately go to the sanitation station, which is right inside the entrance, and use the hand sanitizer. Mask are required while in the building. We can provide one for you if needed. Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the building.
  4. You will put your personal items in a basket and bring it with you into the studio. Baskets will be disinfected between uses.
  5. No food is allowed, but you can bring a personal water bottle.
