This rental policy outlines the policies that LINES Dance Center has put in place to accommodate our constituents and ensure the integrity of our programs and services.

Furthermore, this rental policy outlines policies that will allow studio usage in a COVID-compliant manner. We will comply fully with all San Francisco Department of Public Health Guidelines.

• All renters must check in with a staff member at the 5th floor Front Desk on arrival at LINES Dance Center prior to proceeding to a rented space.

• All studios are equipped with a sound system for renters’ use. If the volume level interrupts other building activity or puts speakers at risk, you will be asked to lower the volume.

• No food or beverages, except water in closed containers, are permitted in any studio.
• Street shoes are not allowed in our dance studios.
• Renters are not permitted to hold in-person or virtual classes or workshops for which fees are being charged. If you are interested in this option, please state this clearly when you request your rental and we will contact you to discuss in more detail.
