THE GOVT ARE LIFTING ALL COVID RESTRICTIONS ON THE 19th JULY. THEY MIGHT BE LIFTED BUT WE STILL HAVE TO BE CAREFUL.

HOWEVER, IN SOME SESSIONS I WILL ALLOW A FEW MORE DANCERS TO ATTEND. IF INTERESTED HAVE A LOOK AT THE WHERE TO DANCE PAGE I HAVE ADDED AGAINST EACH SESSION IF THERE IS SPACE FOR EXTRA DANCERS. Also if you would like to cover for holidays or sickness etc let Pat know.

It's been a fantastic few weeks of dancing. We're now getting back into the swing of things and remembering the dances, well some of them. Only joking you're all doing great. Here's hoping that the govt relaxes some more restrictions on the 19th July so classes are not so restrictive.

CLASS AVAILABILITY: As classes are being run on lower numbers it is essential that we try to fill all the spaces so we have viable and

sustainable classes, both for now and for the future. We have a couple of spaces in both sessions on a friday morning at St Saviours.

Whoop Whoop HotShots are opening up again after lockdown. Just taken the first class back after lockdown ... AND IT FELT SO GOOD ... visit Covid 19 H&S Page to read a couple of the emails that I have received. It's going to be a gradual process ... we have two classes starting again in August and 3 in September. We have to wait until the venues feel that it is the right time for them to open after they have made their venues COVID SAFE. Both venues and myself have to complete COVID 19 RISK ASSESSMENTS and have to comply with H&S procedures. It will mean extra work but it will be GREAT TO GET BACK ON THE DANCE FLOOR AGAIN. ALSO LINE DANCE WEEKENDS ARE STARTING AGAIN WITH ... COVID SAFE TRAVEL ... COVID SAFE HOTELS ... COVID SAFE DANCE FLOOR ETIQUETTE.

DANCERS you will be contacted and informed when your class is opening, you can also watch this space. ALL CLASSES, at the moment, HAVE TO BE PRE-BOOKED (no walk ins). When you are contacted about your class start date you will be sent the new guidelines (this can also be found on the HotShots COVID H&S page.

KEEP SAFE ... CORONAVIRUS IS STILL WITH US ... DON'T GET COMPLAICENT ... REMEMBER TO KEEP AT LEAST 1+ METERS APART ... SANITISE YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY ... WEAR A FACE COVERING

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS: Marion S, Barbara H, Judi B, Judi, Jacqui, Tina, Janice, Debby

JULY 2020

WHOOP WHOOP ... WE'RE COMING OUT OF LOCKDOWN AND DANCE CLASSES ARE STARTING BACK AGAIN.

VISIT HotShots COVID 19 HEALTH & SAFETY PAGE FOR INFORMATION ON HOW CLASSES WILL NOW HAVE TO OPERATE.

Well June was also cancelled ... July looks a little better as we are slowly coming out of lockdown to a more normal life, which is good.
As you are aware HALLS can open from 4th July, but unfortunately at the moment dance and exercise related classes are still banned by the government. It should only be a metter of time before we can dance again. Once we can dance again their will be strict COVID-19 guidelines that we will need to follow.
I do understand that once we can start again for some of you it will be too soon and you will not be ready. This is fine when you are ready just contact us.
So in the meantime JUST HANG ON IN THERE, FINGERS CROSSED THAT IT IS NOT FAR OFF NOW AND STAY SAFE.
Please feel free to contact me always nice to receive an email or phone call. Missing you all ...Janice xxx oops and Pat xxx
