​​​INFORMATION FOR ALL CLASSES, GUIDELINES AND
REGULATIONS INCLUDING CLASSES FOR 2020 AND 2021.

(Sections 3, 2, 1, as they were released.)


JULY 21, 2020
STUDIOS ARE, AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE STERILIZED 

Paris Ballet and Dance’s building has been professionally disinfected and sanitized and will
continue to be monthly for the next year!

Thank you Mark Jackson and Sterileze Cleaning Solutions!

The health and well-being of all students, families and staff has been, and will continue to be
a first priority at Paris Ballet and Dance, and Paris Ballet Conservatory! With these uncertain times,
the Director has taken additional pro-active measures to continually provide the safest environment
possible for students to learn, live and love. Paris Ballet and Dance has retained the services of a
professional sanitizing and disinfecting company for our facility.

Following CDC protocol, Sterileze Cleaning Solutions uses Electrostatic Spray Technology to apply
Vital Oxide to all hard and soft surfaces. This is a hands-free application that uses an electrical charge
to allow the EPA-registered Hospital Grade Disinfectant to wrap around and evenly coat for a more
complete clean. It is effective at killing 99.9% of bacteria, viruses and molds, yet the chemical is
non-corrosive, safe for children and pets, and gentle enough to handle without causing skin irritation.
his is the same process being used in hospitals, commercial airlines and assisted living facilities.

As usual, Paris Ballet and Dance, and Paris Ballet Conservatory will continue daily cleaning and
while everyone follows ALL guidelines, precautions and restrictions!

Thank you again for everyone's continued support of Paris Ballet and Dance through these
unprecedented times.

Space is limited.

​• Fall Classes begin on Tuesday September 1, 2020

​• Students are moving up to the next level for the 2020-2021 Season unless Parents have
previously received an email from the Director stating otherwise. 
​• The Schedule remains the same for each level and is available here on the website with teachers,
slight changes may occur but they are unlikely at this time. 
​• The first few weeks/months there will probably be limited space in physical classes.
Register sooner than later. 
​• All the guidelines will remain as they have been since reopening in June, and will be applied
as long as necessary
.
Paris Ballet and Dance and Paris Ballet Conservatory will adjust accordingly as things evolve.
Hopefully in the right direction soon to go back to a regular setting. 
​• We are planning to start with the same rule of no more than 9 students per studio. LIVE Zoom
Classes from the studio will be offered at the same schedule for students whose Parents prefer to
keep their dancer at home for now. If a level exceeds the limited amount, we will use different studios
at the same time with separate teachers and/or alternating groups attending the physical studio and
the Zoom classes one week at a time. 
​• Tentative performances dates for The Nutcracker are Saturday December 12, 2020 at 7:30 PM
and Sunday December 13, 2020 at 3:30 PM.
These are tentative dates for now because we are not sure what the situation with theaters will be
as the end of the year approaches. There are three different theater options and we will confirm
where the performances will take place once things get more certain. Paris Ballet and Dance, and

Paris Ballet Conservatory would like to still prepare for The Nutcracker with auditions and rehearsals
so everyone is ready if things move in the right direction and everyone can enjoy the spectacular
Holiday Classic production for performers, staff and audience members alike.

If the situation does not evolve for the best and mandates are still in place that Theaters are to remain
closed, then we will make sure the entire cast selected will perform in the next year's production so
all the hard work will not be in vain. We are trying to find the best solutions so we can continue to stay
safe while enjoying the dancing, coaching and maintaining the passion for the this art that keeps us
going everyday, going through a crisis or not. 
​• The Nutcracker Audition is on Saturday September 12th, 2020. Rehearsals begin
September 19th, 2020.
