House rules

…..

Consent is key!
– Ask your dancepartner whether they want to lead, follow or switch. In Fusion the roles can be more fluid and are certainly not gender-bound, so ask, do not assume!
-Ask your dancepartner if they are comfortable with the closeness of the connection.

We welcome everyone, embracing queerness and all types of bodies, we want everyone to feel welcome.

Feel free to ask anyone to dance! The beauty of Fusion is that everyone can dance with everyone else!

It’s OK if you do not want to dance with somebody at that time, saying “No” is OK!
– If you are rejected for a dance, don’t take it personal, because it probably isn’t personal. Sometimes people just don’t want to dance or dance with people they are familiar with.

If you feel sexual tension or other intrusive thoughts, these are your feelings to deal with, don’t put it onto your dancepartner and don’t tell them about it on the dancefloor. If it gets too much for you, shake it off or take some time at the side or in a different room.

Please let us know of any cultural rules we might have missed, we need to be aware in order to adress the issue.

If you feel uncomfortable in any way, come talk to anyone of the organisers. Choose someone you are comfortable with (Tjitte, Brian, Nikkie, Anne, Jer, Abel).
