From your child's first class to their graduation performance, RockStar has a class for everyone! We specialize in beginners of all ages and offer training through pre-professional levels. But, RockStar Dance Studio is More Than Just Great Dancing!® Our dancers go beyond technique to develop important life skills, learning tone respectful, confident and conscientious young people who share their gifts and talents with the community.
Covid 19
First, let me say that I LOVE that families and students are looking forward to coming back to classes. Our studio is truly that "third place" of belonging for so many youth in our area (and even adults!)
Let me also say, that if you are a local business owner who is fully equipped to open in the safest way possible, I am so HAPPY for you! Sincerely, we celebrate your return! Eight months plus (or no) business for a small business is CRUSHING. Small businesses are the heart of our community and I long for the day when we are all whole again.
We have a plan in place and we are sticking with it. A plan that involves keeping our studio open as a hybrid studio, followed by new safety training, classroom changes, curriculum adjustments, and client education.We are sticking with our plan that follows our safety and cleaning protocols during each and every class time. -Student items are left outside in cubbies during class. -Each dancer is to wear a mask entering, during, and exiting the dance studio. -There is temperature checks at the start of every class. -Hands are sanitized or washed before and after class. -Floors, any and all equipment are cleaned, before the first class of the day, after each class, and at the end of every class of the day.
We have a system on our website and all of social media to alert everyone on the status we are in.
-RED Dot: STOP! No in person classes. All classes will be online until further notice.
-YELLOW Dot: We are open for in person classes and online classes with the exception of a maximum number of students for in person. Once we hit our maximum students for in person, anyone else joining will have to do online.
-GREEN Dot: We are back to full capacity and no longer need to wear masks! (We pray for that day to come!)
As of now (the yellow dot) we are going to keep dancing in person and online- leaping in living rooms, and dancing in our dining rooms or backyards.
Thank you, teachers and families, for your support.
Until then, grace and peace,
Ms. StevieFounder/CEO of RockStar Dance Studio, LLC
