Policies for In-Person Classes During COVID-19

COVID-19 Waiver

This liability waiver must be completed before attending your first class.

Omaha Jitterbugs has worked hard to balance the safety of our students with our passion for dancing together in person.  We have taken the following steps in good faith to protect our students and participants.  

  1.   All students and teachers must wear a properly worn mask at all times.  The mask must cover your nose and your mouth snugly.
  2.   No one who has tested positive for COVID-19 or has been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 will be allowed to participate until they have completed their 10 day quarantine.
  3.   If you have symptoms of COVID-19, do not participate in class.
  4.   When you arrive for class, you will be required to 
    • Sign the COVID waiver
    • Wear a mask. We will provide a mask if you forget yours.
    • Sanitize your hands.  
    • If you refuse to do any of these, you will be asked to leave.
  5.   All classes will be for solo dancing or dancing with a person you are isolating with.  You will not rotate dance partners.
  6.   Students will be spread out across the dance floor at least 12 feet apart.  
  7.   All windows will be open during class with the fans circulating air.
  8.   Classes are limited to 13 students, with 2 teachers, and 15 total people in the space.  
  9.   Bring your own water or drink.  Water jugs will not be provided.
  10.   After each evening of class, the teachers will sanitize all high-touch areas:  door handles, bathroom sinks, toilet handles, paper towel dispensers, the table by the door, etc.
  11.   If a student or teacher tests positive for COVID-19 once class has begun, all groups in which that person has been in contact with will be notified immediately.  
  12.   If you find out you were exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID-19, email us at jitterbugs@jitterbugs.org as soon as possible so we can notify your classmates and teachers.  Class will continue in person while you wait for test results.  If you receive a positive test result for COVID-19, you must email us so we can inform your classmates.
