"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain."
In the challenging and uncertain times of the Covid-19 Pandemic, dance has been a source of joy and connection for our children. We will continue to take all precautions and safety measures so that we can continue to provide the highest level of dance education.
Contact erica@siagel.com with any questions or concerns.

Withdrawal Policy


  • In the event that we have to shut down our in-studio classes, we will continue the regular dance schedule via Zoom. Teachers will be asked to teach from the studio to optimize video quality. We will require a cancellation fee of 1 tuition installation. During the 1 month following your cancellation date, your dancer will be able to take classes via Zoom. After 30 days, your dancer will have the option to stay on virtually or fully withdraw from the program.

  • Antibacterial spray of high traffic areas, knobs, bathrooms, and surfaces between every class
  • Antibacterial cleaning of floors between every class
  • Designated entrances and exits for each studio to manage flow of traffic and minimize contact.
  • Enhanced ventilation with open doors, windows, loading docks, and fans, including HEPA air filters in each studio.
  • Multiple touchless hand sanitizing stations have been installed throughout the facility.
  • Each class will be slightly shortened to provide ample cleaning time.
  • We will minimize contact with our younger dancers by changing dress code to leggings and tank top.
Health Safety Policies for all families:
  • Mandatory hand sanitization upon entrance and exit of the building.
  • Parents will be required to drop off at the front door or designated studio door and will not be permitted in the building. Please wait outside for a teacher to come get your child to walk them into the building.
  • Face masks will be worn by all dancers and staff at all times. Please ensure that your dancers mask fits appropriately and covers both their mouth and nose.
  • Each group will stay in their assigned studio for the duration of class. Each group will have their own bathroom assigned to them.
  • If a child leaves the room to use the bathroom, their hands will be sanitized when they return to the studio.
  • All staff members will be asked screening questions before they begin their teaching shift.
  • Any staff member found ill or with symptoms will be immediately sent home and the dance studio will be sanitized from top to bottom. This will take place before any students enter the facility.

  • If a staff member or student tests positive for Covid-19, all dance families will be notified immediately and the studio will be given a deep clean. If TDA management feels that it is in the best interest of our students and staff’s health and safety to close our studio, we will consider doing so, and will let you know. In this situation, Zoom will be available to all students so that they will not miss any of their classes.
  • If an immediate family member or someone you reside with has Covid-19 we ask that you notify TDA immediately. We ask you to follow the protocols given by the DPH/CDC.
