Following government and student guidelines, we are able to hold classes in person under new regulations. If there are any changes in policy and we go into a local/national lockdown, we will run classes online. 

 

How we can keep each other safe in class:

 

If you have any COVID-19 symptoms…

• Do not come to class. Please self isolate, and find Uni of York forms here: https://coronavirus.york.ac.uk/#h.d87safn1iby5

Social distancing measures

• We must remain 2 metres apart from each other while dancing, during breaks, and waiting before a class

• Each space will have a one way system that will be signposted by the university to make entrances and exits clear. 

• Classes will be running at a reduced capacity in line with the numbers provided 

• You must not hang around inside the room or around the entrance/exit points after the class is dismissed

Booking online

• We have a new online booking system with Wix.

• You cannot turn up to class without a booking.

Track and trace

• We will be using this for every person that comes to class as required by YUSU.

• Most rooms also have the NHS QR code, which you will also be required to scan. 

Masks 

• Current YUSU guidelines require masks in enclosed indoor spaces. You are not required to wear masks while dancing but we encourage you to wear them during breaks.

Cleanliness and sanitising 

• Please sanitise before and after class. We would advise you to bring your own.

• There will be minimal choreography on the floor.

• We encourage you to bring a yoga mat or towel to class. If you forget a towel, you can use a floor spray we will provide. 

Timetable changes

• The timetable will look different to our returning members as we have changes in the spaces we can use.

• Classes are 45 mins with breaks in between them to limit mixing between groups.

Payment

• Classes will be paid for using a contactless card machine.

• Membership can only be purchased on the YUSU website (https://yusu.org/activities/view/dance-society).
