The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious. The state of medical knowledge is evolving, but the virus is believed to spread from person-to-person contact and/or by contact with contaminated surfaces and objects, and even possibly in the air. People reportedly can be infected and show no symptoms and therefore spread the disease. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people.
Hollywood Ballet Academy has been following the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state and local officials on guidelines as well as following best practices with ballet schools operating in person across the nation.

Program. I also understand that Student will not be able to participate in the program unless this document is signed with

HOLLYWOOD BALLET ACADEMY’S
WINTER/SUMMER INTENSIVE AGREEMENT
Dear Student(s) attending our Winter/Summer Intensive,

It takes a very serious commitment and understanding of ballet training to select Hollywood Ballet Academy’s Winter/Summer intensive programs. We look forward to working with you, whether in person or virtually!
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Detailed study of classical ballet technique: providing an advanced and high level of training, connecting movement sequences musically and physically, creating combinations designed to develop control, balance, strength and flexibility, standard classical divertissement and style
distinctions, including progression of technical complexities and approaches to classical ballet stylizations. We are fine-tuning the physical understanding of classical ballet’s technical
expectations and the artistic aspect of the art form. We believe diligence, discipline, and a good work ethic are keys to success. We all come from different backgrounds in terms of natural,
physical abilities, and personalities. By applying yourself well, you will ultimately achieve your personal goal.
CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS
Attendance:
• Be on time for every class. Arriving 20 minutes after class begins will be considered “absent.”

physical demand from the vigor of the art form.

Gentlemen: Solid – Black-colored tights with dance belt and a tightly fitted T-shirt or
leotard. Shoes:

however, we ask that you make choices that are suited for classical ballet. Rehearsal Tutus can be worn for variations and Pas de Deux Classes.

CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE
• The instructor expects you to be focused physically and mentally so we may begin class with total physical and mental capacity.
• Be very focused when you are given a combination.
• Pay special attention to musicality.
• Be open-minded to new ways of performing a step.
• Be willing to explore new ideas about movement and music and learn to work through the unfamiliarity.
• When given a correction, apply immediately. Work to retain this information so that you will be able to eliminate the issue in future classes.
• When a classmate is given a correction, absorb it as though it was given to you.
• If there is a question about something, wait until the instructor finishes explaining - your answer may be in the instructor's following words.
• Prepare for each combination before the music starts. Don't wait for the introduction of the music to get into position.
• Be motivated, energetic, and responsive to your teacher throughout the class.
• When you encounter an obstacle, continue with a positive attitude. Never "give up" in the middle of a combination.
• Trust that the instructor's experience and knowledge will help guide you toward improvement and success.
• If you wish to discuss or question a correction or combination, the time to do this is after class. Not during. It interrupts the flow of the class and brings your classmates out of focus.
• Treat the virtual studio as a sacred place: Respect the learning environment, no unnecessary talking, no gum chewing, respect and be courteous to your teacher, accompanist, and fellow
classmates and respect the art form of ballet.
SCHEDULES
Schedules are subject to change. In case of an emergency, please understand that teachers or types of classes can be changed. We will post schedules on a weekly basis. The first schedule will come out the week before the intensive. Stay tuned to our website for posting or changes.
Also, make sure to sign up for our Stay Connected program to receive automatic email notifications and not miss any changes or information from Hollywood Ballet Academy.
LEVELS
Levels have been pre-assigned by ages, and adjustments will occur under the discretion of the artistic director. Select students might be asked to cross into different levels based on specific needs due to technique, injuries, or repertory work.
FOOD
We strongly suggest packing food for the day, especially for the younger dancers. However, there are many restaurants in downtown Hollywood on Harrison St, where our school is located, and on Hollywood Blvd, all within five minutes walking distance. Please do not allow your child (the student) to go beyond Downtown Hollywood on foot; we are not a chaperoned intensive. If you authorized your child (the student) to go outside of our studios to get food on their own, you must sign an agreement. We have a small kitchen with a refrigerator, freezer, coffee machine, and microwave. Space can be limited, so use ice packs as well. Make sure to place your name on your lunch bag to avoid any confusion.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Artistic Scholarships at Hollywood Ballet Academy are awarded strictly for artistic merit and potentially talented students seeking a spot at Hollywood Ballet Academy. Given the sensitive
nature of these awards, please keep your award confidential. Please do not share this information with any other student, either verbally or on any form of social media.
COVID-19 POLICY (as of September, 2021)
CDC recommendations and local guidelines are changing rapidly. Therefore policy is subject to change at any time. At this time, we will require the use of facemasks for our Winter/Summer
Intensive. Based on the Florida State Policy, we are allowed to hold the event at this current time. If the situation changes, we will notify everyone once the state informs us. However, our
situation is different in a busy ballet studio with strenuous activity. Ballet requires such physical contact, and it’s our responsibility to keep everyone safe. If the pandemic situation changes over the year and masks are not required, one is always welcome to wear a mask if it feels comfortable for you.
Fully Vaccinated Participants: (meaning 2 weeks after complete dosage). Anyone who is vaccinated by the commencement of our event Winter/Summer intensive may show the vaccine
card at check-in. This does not excuse any dancer from mask requirements. It does excuse any dancer from quarantine requirements in case of exposure, as they can continue class unless symptoms are present. Covid tests must be done if experiencing symptoms.
Unvaccinated Participants: We require a negative RT-PCR or Rapid covid test that has been taken within 72 hours of arrival of your first day of taking the class. Negative tests can be shown
at check-in, printed out, or a picture/email on your phone.
Symptomatic Students: Please do not come to class if you are experiencing symptoms. Any symptomatic students over the course of the intensive will be asked to find a testing site and
produce a negative test before returning to class. Anyone who tests positive must follow current
CDC quarantine guidelines and medical recommendations before returning to class. We ask that you use caution while enjoying your time in South Florida. Your training is the priority; please use masks indoors in crowded areas as you enjoy your time in the Sunshine State. Also, take advantage of all the safe outdoor opportunities and wear your sunscreen.
