5Rhythms: Clare Backwell, guest teaching @The Black-e

We're delighted to welcome Clare Backwell back to Liverpool!

You can buy tickets here to be sure of a place and any remaining places will left open to those who prefer to pay on the door with a card on the night until we reach capacity.

If for some reason the class has to be postponed you'll get a full and no-quibble refund.

IF YOU INTEND TO COME IN PERSON TO THE BLACK-E PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING!

We're looking forward to welcoming you to Liverpool's Black-e! Whilst there are no restrictions now in the dance space, we still have some restrictions in place, to comply with health and safety regulations and risk assessments completed by both myself and the Black-e.

Please only book if you're able to agree to respect and adhere to all of the 12 points below.

1) Please don't come if you have any symptoms of Covid-19 or have tested positive. Cancel your ticket in these circumstances and you will be refunded.

2) Turn up ready to move by the official start time. You can arrive up to 20 minutes before the start time and warmup music should be playing (i.e. from 710pm with class starting at 730pm).

3) It's not required to wear a mask to dance, but at time of writing the Black-e do require that a mask be worn whilst entering and leaving the class. Please respect this if asked by the Black-e to do so.

4) Please follow the safety signs put in place by the Black-e and avoid congregating in communal areas, also leaving 2m distance whilst queuing to enter the building

5) Staff from the Black-e might ask you to sign in when you enter the building.

6) Bring enough water for yourself as we won't have access to the kitchen

8) Whilst rules around proximity between dancers in the dance space have been removed, please respect that other dancers might not want you close physically and please pay attention your spacial awareness around other dancers.

9) Belongings can be brought into the space and safely left away from public entrances at the side of the dance space.

10) Class will be finished at 9.15pm. Please be out of the building by 925pm.

We look forward to meeting you on the dancefloor on Friday!

FAQs

Is this class suitable for beginners?

Yes, beginners and experienced 5Rhythms dancers are welcome. If you're completely new to 5Rhythms it could be useful to come a few minutes earlier for a short intro before the class starts.

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

No, but all attendees in the space must have a ticket or pay at the door (at no income rate). Minors must be accompanied at all times by a parent or guardian.

What are my transport/parking options for getting to and from the event?

Parking can be difficult near the Black-e, so please allow yourself enough time to arrive. Directions from the Black-e are here.

What can I/can't I bring into the event?

Please bring water and your own bottle to drink whilst you're dancing. Water will not be provided. Please do not bring alcohol (or drugs!). These should also not have been consumed prior to the class.  

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?

Email is best: [email protected]

What's the refund policy?

For 5x5Rhythms series passes, if you've bought a pass for the whole series you can request a refund via eventbrite up to 30 days before the class. Tickets bought on the week of the class are non-refundable. The only exception will be refunds if you are exhibiting symptoms of covid-19 or have been exposed to someone who has. This refund will be available with notice up to 2 hours before the event. Refunds will not include the Eventbrite booking fee which is unfortunately non-refundable, and in the case of a pass the refund will only be a proportional refund for the night in question, not for the whole series.

Is it ok if the name on my ticket or registration doesn't match the person who attends?

Tickets are transferable at no extra cost if the name and email address of the other dancer is sent at least 24 hours before class to [email protected].

Exchange of tickets at the door or on the day of class is not permitted, sorry, as this causes confusion and disturbance those arriving.

Am I allowed to talk or take photos during the class?

Chitchat with other dancers in the dance space is discouraged, as it's distracting for dancers and the teacher. Photos and video recording are not allowed.
