At Regalo, we value the health, safety and well-being of all our guests, and we expect that the event will be free from harassment and disrespectful or inappropriate (verbal or non-verbal) behavior.

• Refrain from coercive or persistent invitations

• Refrain from following, stalking, or monopolizing other attendees

• Not engage in disrespectful, uninvited or inappropriate touch, on or off the dance floor

• Hear and respect the verbal and non-verbal communication of partners

• Not use threatening or discriminatory language

• Recognize and protect the boundaries of others

• Respect the entrance etiquette, flow and lanes of the ronda

• Not dance in a way that endangers yourself, your partner or others on the dance floor

• Not engage in any form of harassment*

​

The Regalo team takes harassment very seriously and is committed to maintaining a safe and peaceful event. We will act promptly to address behavior that violates our code of conduct.
