Hello!
We are excited to say that Imagine Ballet Theatre is reopening Monday May 10th with limited classes and class sizes. We will have safety measures in place to keep dancers, families and staff in place.
Please contact kristashively.ibt@gmail.com to sign up for classes.
- The studio has been thoroughly cleaned, and we will continue to be vigilant in cleaning and sanitizing.
- Classes will be limited to 10 dancers maximum. Please sign up for the class(es) you want to attend so we can keep track.
- Only dancers in the studio. Parents can drop their dancer off at the back door. *Only the back door next to the alley will be unlocked.
- Dancers can arrive 5 minutes before their scheduled class, and must be picked up immediately afterwards.
- Please take your temperature before you arrive. If your temp is higher than normal, please let us know and don’t come in. *We are working on getting a digital thermometer to take temperatures at the door/
- We will enter through the back door, through the yoga/storage room, and exit through the hallway.
- All dancers, and staff, will need to wear face masks for class for the safety and health of everyone. If they don’t have a mask, dancers won’t be permitted to enter and/or take class. You will be able to go to the empty studio if you need to take your mask of temporarily. Masks must be washed every day.

- If you have requests for classes at different times, please let me know.
