Anti-Harassment Policy

We do not permit harassment in our classroom or studios. Harassment is unwelcome verbal or non-verbal conduct that denigrates or shows hostility or aversion toward the person and has the purpose or effect of creating an environment that a reasonable person would consider intimidating, hostile, or abusive. Harassment includes epithets, slurs, name calling, negative stereotyping, insults, intimidation, ridicule, threatening, intimidating or hostile acts, denigrating jokes, and display in the workplace of written or graphic material that denigrates or shows hostility or aversion toward an individual or group. Petty slights, annoyances, and isolated minor incidents may not rise to the level of harassment.

Sexual Harassment Policy

We do not tolerate sexual harassment in our classroom or studios. Sexual harassment refers to any unwelcome sexual attention, sexual advan­­­ces, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, visual, or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:

•      Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for decisions affecting such individual, such as performance review; 

•      The advances have already been explicitly declined;

•      Such conduct has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment.

Examples of sexual harassment include unwanted and unnecessary physical contact; offensive remarks (including unwelcome comments about appearance); obscene jokes or other inappropriate use of sexually offensive language; and unwelcome sexual advances. Non-physical gesture, behavior, unnecessary physical contact, verbal suggestion, or innuendo may constitute sexual harassment.
