Health & Safety of our dancers and staff are first priority.
In every studio, we added new filtration systems, HEPA filters, dance squares, and mask requirements for dancers and staff. As we are awaiting direction from OSHA, we thank you for your cooperation while we keep our #DDPACFamily safe in our home.
