Dance guidelines

Dance Floor Agreements:

Barefoot – Put your shoes in the cubbies and free your feet! Medically necessary footwear OK 🙂

Alcohol-Free – Don’t come to dance under the influence, and don’t bring substances with you. You’ll get plenty high off the vibes 🙂

Tech-Free – No snapping selfies or recording videos for the story!

Chit-Chat-Free – Save conversations for the Lounge, but feel free to growl, holler, or sing-a-long on the dance-floor!

Use consent – Always get clear verbal or eye-contact consent before making physical contact or getting into someone’s bubble.

Be YOURSELF! – ’Nuff said. ALL of you is welcome, messiness included!
