DO NOT COME TO REHEARSAL SICK

What to do when sick:

• Notify your choreographer that you will not be able to attend rehearsal due to illness and fill out the absence form

• DO NOT come to rehearsal if you have tested positive for Covid-19 or have had close contact 

  • Allow 10 days from positive test before returning to rehearsal

• If you are feeling sick (and do not have Covid-19) but are well enough to participate in rehearsal, you may come to rehearsal wearing a mask (Masks are available around campus at CSTP testing sites). 

• We highly recommend taking a Covid test when feeling sick either on campus or at home

Rehearsal Tips and Etiquette

• Arrive at least 5 minutes early

  • Gives you time to get water, eat a snack, use the restroom

• Use the lockers outside the movement studios!

  • This gives us more floor space (especially once we all have coats with us!) 

• Check Slack the morning of your rehearsal

  • See if there are any reminders or changes

• Watch the recording from the previous week (even if it's on the bus/walk to rehearsal!)

• Minimize side conversations

  • We want everyone to have fun and chat, but when your choreographer is teaching, give them your full attention

• Be respectful and kind to other dancers. This group is for all levels of dancers so expect to dance with people who have no dance experience. If you are not prepared to dance with people who have little to no experience, we encourage you to reevaluate your membership in New Movement. We will not tolerate disrespectful or exclusionary behavior by any dancer.
