Where I stand: I am pro-vax, with all possible shots and boosters taken! I caught COVID for the first time July 2023 and it knocked me out HARD. As an individual who struggles with chronic illness, getting sick means a longer recovery than some and I thank you for your grace and understanding as we continue to navigate this THING. At this time, masking and vaccination for participants will remain optional, but recommended as precautionary measures.
What I ask: Remain flexible, roll with me, stay home if you feel sick - especially if you have a fever - and mask up if you're feeling that icky throat or stuffy nose feeling. 🙏🏼
I also will be the first to say that dancing + teaching in a sweaty, sticky mask sucks. It just does. And, at the same time, ya girl needs to prioritize her health.
THANK YOU for understanding and respecting these requests and the choices of your fellow dancers. I appreciate you so much! 💛
