We respect everyone's right to choose for themselves if they would like to wear a mask in the studio. In accordance with the current New Haven recommendations, we are allowing our staff to choose individually if they would like to wear a mask. However, if a student has a medical need that would necessitate our staff to wear a mask, please let us know. We are dedicated to keeping the studio a safe space for all.
