Milestone
Today (March 13th, 2022) marks 6 months since I reopened for in-person lessons. The combination of masks, air filtration, and social distancing allowed the studio to operate safely throughout the Delta and Omicron surges.
The studio ended up being hybrid, with half the students choosing in-person lessons and the other half opting for online lessons. (Though many of the online lesson students chose that format more for convenience rather than safety.)
We survived!
As the numbers come down from the latest surge, I’m considering easing the mask policy. Having said that, students can always wear masks if they wish, and I will always wear a mask at the student’s request.
