Code of conduct
Our guidelines for a safe event.
Beware of our Code of Conduct to ensure a welcoming and safe experience for everyone involved. Here are our specific guidelines:
- We are dedicated to creating a safe, respectful, and inclusive atmosphere where every attendee feels welcome and protected.
- Our event encourages respectful interactions at every level, from dancers and teachers to artists and organizers.
- Everyone has the right to decline a dance without needing to provide an explanation.
- We stand against discrimination of any kind, whether based on religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, age, mental health, physical appearance, or dance skill.
- We expect all participants to maintain good body hygiene, arriving freshly showered and using perfume or deodorant in moderation, especially considering the close contact in dancing.
- Our event implements a NO FEEDBACK policy, meaning unsolicited feedback is discouraged in classes and on the dance floor.
- We ask dancers to be constantly aware on the dance floor to prevent injuries. In the event of an accident, stop immediately and check on your partner's well-being.
- For the safety of all dancers, aerials are restricted to jam circles or performances and are not allowed on the regular dance floor to minimize the risk of injury.
- Our event firmly opposes all forms of harassment, including sexual assault.
- We will have a Care Team available at our event, offering support to anyone experiencing discomfort or unpleasant situations.
- Due to the racist logo of the local beer brand, which has been the subject of numerous discussions over the past year, we want our participants to understand that we are not collaborating with this brewery. However, the logo might still be visible on some items( e.g. Fridge,... ) at the venue, which unfortunately, we cannot control.
Care TEam
We have a dedicated Care Team to assist with any questions or issues participants may have. At the check-in, you'll find photos of the Care Team members displayed for easy recognition. Throughout the event, the Care Team members can be identified by their buttons or staff shirts. If you need assistance and can't locate a Care Team member, feel free to approach the MC or any member of the organizing team at any time.
