Student/Dancer Information

Health and Safety Policy

The California Academy of the Arts is dedicated to providing a safe and secure environment for all dancers. As part of our commitment to ensuring the well-being of our students, we have qualified staff members who may administer basic first aid when necessary. This includes the management of minor injuries or addressing immediate health concerns during their time at the academy or at academy events.

However, it is important to note that our staff members are not medical professionals. In the event of more serious or urgent medical issues where the student/dancer is unable to make his/her own medical decisions, our staff will make every effort to contact parents/guardians/emergency contacts or primary care physicians to seek additional guidance and ensure appropriate medical care is obtained. We understand the importance of involving parents/guardians and primary care physicians in such situations to ensure the best possible care for our students/dancers.

By participating in programs and activities at the California Academy of the Arts, dancers and/or their parents/guardians acknowledge and consent to our staff members providing basic first aid when deemed necessary, and understand that our staff members will seek appropriate medical guidance in the event of more serious or urgent medical issues.

Emergency Contact

In case of any unforeseen circumstances or emergencies, we must have the contact details of someone we can contact on your behalf. This information will be kept strictly confidential and will only be used in case of emergencies. You must provide a minimum of one emergency contact, but we prefer at least two.
