Code of Conduct

The Association Crazy Lion Events is committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and respectful environment for everyone at its festivals and events. By attending, you agree to follow this Code of Conduct, which reflects our shared values of kindness, inclusivity, and responsibility.

Respect Others

Crazy Lion Events promotes values of respect, tolerance, and kindness during all its events.
Everyone participating commits to respecting these values in order to guarantee a safe space for all.
Our events are open to everyone, regardless of gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, accessibility needs, physical appearance, or religious beliefs.
Therefore, no violence, intimidation, or inappropriate acts or comments (misogynistic, sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, or otherwise degrading) will be allowed.

Any behavior or comments aimed at discriminating or intimidating another participant (whether directed at dancers, volunteers, teachers, artists, DJs, or staff) can be reported to our designated Safe Contact. They will be available to listen and to take the necessary measures to ensure the well-being of all.
Crazy Lion Events reserves the right to expel anyone displaying inappropriate behavior without refund. In case of violence or illegal acts, local authorities may be contacted.

Political Respect and Neutrality

Our community brings together people from many countries, cultures, and backgrounds.
To ensure the festival remains a welcoming space for all, Crazy Lion Events is committed to political respect and neutrality. Participants are asked to:

Avoid promoting or opposing any political entity or ideology.
Refrain from political campaigning or debates inside festival spaces.

This ensures our events remain focused on dance, music, and cultural exchange. Any disruption of this neutrality may result in removal from the event without compensation. We believe dance unites beyond politics, and our goal is to create a space where peace, connection, and mutual respect take center stage.

Ethics on the Dance Floor

All dancers are kindly asked to respect the following principles:

Consent is key: each participant has the right to refuse a dance at any time. Everyone has the right to say no to anything, anytime for any reason – and that’s always okay!
Respect your partner’s comfort and boundaries. For Example:
• Don’t hold tighter than necessary or pull your partner closer than they indicate.
• Avoid touching body areas that aren’t part of the dance connection (lower back, chest, hips, etc.)
• If your partner lets go of the embrace or wants more space — follow their lead and continue dancing respectfully.
• Never insist on another dance if someone says no, looks tired, or walks away
Maintain personal hygiene: shower, use deodorant, brush your teeth, and bring a change of clothes if needed.
Participate in workshops at the appropriate level to ensure quality learning for everyone.
Respect the teachers, their methods, and their work.
Be aware of your surroundings to avoid injuring others: Make space for to avoid injuring others. Apologize if you bump someone. Prioritize your partner’s comfort.
No Acrobatic or Risky figures, like lifts, tricks or unsafe dips on a social dance floor – These moves can be risky – especially without space, clear communication and without mutual consent before attempting.
