Partnerwork & Physical Contact Policy

Many dance styles taught at BailArte involve partnerwork and physical contact as part of the learning

process. All students are expected to engage in partner activities respectfully, professionally, and with

consideration for the comfort and boundaries of others.

Students must maintain appropriate personal hygiene during classes and partner activities out of respect

for fellow dancers.

Any inappropriate touching, unwanted physical behaviour, harassment, intimidation, or conduct that

causes discomfort to another participant will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

Students always have the right to decline partnering with another participant or to communicate

personal boundaries respectfully without fear of judgement or retaliation.

Instructors reserve the right to intervene, reassign partners, provide guidance, or remove students from

activities where behaviour is considered inappropriate or unsafe.

BailArte is committed to maintaining a safe and inclusive environment where all students can

participate comfortably and confidently.
