York Salsa Class Night

UPDATE 1.5.23 This is a Salsa class night of three class levels with social dancing between classes. We offer technical and fun classes with a set syllabus and feedback given to all dancers throughout their learning. We cover all salsa styles and bachata in the classes. There is one fee per night, so as you progress through the levels you can come along eventually and stay with us all evening. Please bring a drink along as there is no bar service. UPDATE 28.2.22 We are now completely back to operating as before the pandemic. You are no longer required to bring a LFT result with you. You can just 'drop' into dance sessions, no need to book! Your instructors will continue to test and are fully vaccinated. We will continue to provide sanitiser stations. UPDATE 2.1.2022 With new guidelines and the increasing rise of the Omicron variant,all class participants must now bring to class proof of a negative LFT reported to the NHS.

COVID MITIGATIONS: Although restrictions in law have now been lifted, I would ask all dancers to be considerate of each others feelings and worries. I will operate as flexible a class space as is practically possible. Face coverings: Wearing a face covering is now voluntary. I would ask you to volunteer to wear a face covering when dancing with another person wearing one. I know a few of you are wanting to carry on using them for the time being. So please continue to bring one to class, in case you need it. Partner sharing: Partner sharing will return to the class. Don't want to partner share? No problem, I will allocate space for those wanting to continue to distance themselves. Let me know at the start of the class. Ventilation: Doors and or windows will remain open. On colder nights please wear layers. Sanitiser: I will continue to provide hand sanitiser and will regularly ask you to use it. DON'T COME TO CLASS IF YOU HAVE ANY FEELINGS OF BEING UNWELL, particularly if you have any of the four most recognised symptoms of Covid 19. If you are tested positive for Covid 19, please inform us asap, so we can inform all those who attended your class. Your instructors: We are Lateral Flow testing before class and I would ask you to consider regularly testing yourselves before dancing with lots of partners. Though not 100 percent accurate, it does give you a good indicator of your status. You can get them free from your chemist. I am fully vaccinated with both doses. Booking: Except new dancers on their first night, we no longer need you to pre book a place. I will however ask you to sign in so we have a list of class members in each level. More Info below.
