The Dutch central government has announced the relaxation of most COVID-19 restrictions from 25 February 2022. From this date forward, the following measures will no longer be in effect at DARA:
The mandatory 1,5 meter social distancing rule is lifted;
The requirement to wear a face mask inside the building is lifted.
The following rules & recommendations continue to remain in effect:
If you develop symptoms of COVID-19, stay at home and do a self-test or get tested by the municipal health service (GGD) as soon as possible. Self-isolate if you test positive.
Taking a self-test regularly before coming to the studio is recommended.
Although the 1,5 meter distance rule is relaxed, giving everyone else enough space is still recommended.
Ventilators stay switched on during class hours.
Wash your hands thoroughly and often.
What happens if a course is cancelled because of COVID-19?
If the government reinstates any COVID-19 restrictions which will prevent DARA from giving a course as regularly scheduled, students will be notified immediately. If it is possible to postpone the course to a later date in the near future, we will do so.
In this event, students can opt to:
keep their space on hold to attend the course at a postponed date;
transfer their enrollment to a different course (where spaces are available);
receive a full refund of tuition.
