The Latin Switch Dance Code of Conduct:

1. Both women and men are encouraged to invite people to dance, and to reject a dance, no questions asked. Treat all dancers with courtesy and respect, regardless of their skill level or experience.

2. Ask if the person wants to follow, lead, or switch back and forth. But then, let your body do the talking!

3. The person leading is responsible for making sure there is enough space and avoiding collisions on the dance floor.

4. During class, if you want to remain with the same person and not rotate, move a little to the side.

5. If rotating during the social, usually wait until the end of the song to change partners, or kindly tell your partner you would like to end the dance early.

6. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to approach one of the teachers or personnel!
