Delaney Dancing
Group Classes On Hold
The Covid Measures below are under ongoing consideration and can be considered indicative
This page lists specific measures being introduced to minimise the risk of Covid infection at Group Classes. In addition, please be familiar with our Covid Awareness webpage which includes links to Government and NHS websites. Thank you.
Group Classes - Initially these will be limited to Tuesdays
Your Health - If you develop Covid-19 Symptoms please follow NHS Guidelines.
Location - The main hall at Portchester Community School, White Hart Lane, Portchester, PO16 9BD. This is a large airy hall ideal for social distancing.
Access to the hall is via the front foyer only - the rear car park is unavailable due to maintenance.
Arrival Time - please don't come in early and please leave promptly when your class ends. To avoid clusters of people gathering in the foyer if you arrive early please wait outside or in your car. Your cooperation with this is appreciated.
Doors and Seating - To maintain social distancing we are asking you to note which door to use for coming and going. Please also note seating arrangements. Your cooperation with this is appreciated.
Payment - Cost £8.00 each class or do both for £14.00. To protect us all, the handling of cash will be minimised and Delaney Dancing will operate a no change given policy. So please have the correct money to hand. Bank payment is fine too - beforehand please - bank details to be provided via email. Thank you.
Pre-Booking - Delaney Dancing is obliged to keep records and manage the numbers attending (maximum 30 people). Please email or text to let us know beforehand if you intend coming. In the same way if you have said you are coming, but then can't make it please let us know. Your help with this is much appreciated.
Format - These classes are ideal for those previously attending the Monday and Wednesday Classes. And people dancing socially to a similar level on a Friday. We are all a bit rusty so inevitably we will be going over Sequence Dances and recapping Ballroom/Latin routines...
Social Distancing - We need to maintain appropriate social distancing.
Hand Cleaning - Whilst we will be providing a hand sanitiser station we are also asking people to bring their own.
Toilets - will be available as usual. A maximum of two people at any one time.
Refreshments - drinks will be available for purchase as usual, but Delaney Dancing stresses you are very welcome to bring your own...
Packing Away - To ensure sanitisation is accounted for, we don't need any help packing tables and chairs away - when you go please leave furniture where it is - thank you.
Short Notice Changes - Things might change and at short notice. We recommend that you check your emails before setting out.
Face Masks - The Delaney Dancing interpretation of the government guidelines is you do need a mask...
Your help following these guidelines is appreciated. Thank You
