Coronavirus Safety Procedures

Spotlight Vermont takes the safety of our dancers, families, and staff very seriously. During the current coronavirus pandemic, COVID-19, we have made some changes to the process of entering and dancing at our studio.

Please see our COVID-19 Protocols for returning class for more details.

  • Please arrive to dance class fully dressed and ready to go if possible. Dressing rooms are currently closed. Keeping them closed, means they are staying clean and sanitary. Bathrooms are open and cleaned frequently.

  • Please walk through to your nearest bathroom and wash your hands. We will have hand sanitizer available but soap and water is always the best.

  • Enter the studio you are dancing in and choose a chair. Chairs are placed throughout each studio at more than 6 feet intervals. You may leave your bag at your chair.

  • Before leaving our studio please wash your hands.

If you have any questions please let us know. We are happy to discuss our dancers’ return to the studio! Welcome back to Spotlight Vermont!
