Ms Mackrill said it was uncertain what would happen by the end of the year.
"What we are hoping to be able to continue with the learning and if necessary, film the production for public viewing, but who knows if this will be possible," she said.
Ms Mackrill said the future of the Launceston College Dance Fever production would be reviewed at the beginning of term 2.
"This week, our LC Dance Fever students had their usual session but it is possible it could be cancelled," she said.
Flash Dance is an accredited level 2 course with learning outcomes and assessment attached.
