Whilst falling under youth activities we were permitted to be open with restrictions May 29. To date there has been little to zero COVID-19 related cases in Illinois Dance Studios. Thousands of classes have been held with strict protocols in place including temperature checks hand sanitizing and masks. Our students are suffering mentally . They do not go to school and the only time they leave their home is to go to the dance studio where they are in small classes and social distance safely .

We have done a great job in keeping the students safe ,please do not take their only activity away , the damage to their mental health will be long lasting.
