Dance belongs to everyone.<\/em><\/p>\n Everyone is welcome to dance as they are.<\/p>\n We avoid making assumptions about someone else\u2019s identity, gender, sexuality, background or ability to function. We respect what a person wants to tell or not tell about themself.<\/p>\n Every body is unique and valuable.<\/em><\/p>\n We don\u2019t comment on each other\u2019s appearance or performance.<\/p>\n The guidance regarding one\u2019s body is always connected to the exercise performed in class. You may also refuse contact.<\/p>\n We create a safer space together.<\/em><\/p>\n We encourage each other and make sure that everyone is heard and gets to participate in the activity. If we offend someone, we apologize and learn from our mistakes.<\/p>\n Our teachers are here for you and you are always welcome to ask questions.<\/p>\n In a safer space, it is easier for everyone to learn and enjoy dancing.<\/p>\n We are a discrimination-free area.<\/em><\/p>\n Any kind of discriminatory, disturbing or inappropriate behavior or racist, homophobic or transphobic speech is prohibited in all locations of the Helsinki Dance Institute.<\/p>\n If you encounter or witness any of the above, please tell your dance teacher.
