  • Hand washing station 

Physical Distancing

We are taking careful actions to facilitate physical distancing. Look for extra signs to guide you through the space and help us all practice appropriate distancing.

Equipment Spacing

  • Equipment will be marked so that only every second piece of equipment is used
  • Equipment usage will alternate between sessions.  This is clearly marked on each machine.
  • Some pieces of equipment may be removed from the clinic that create airflow (Rower, Schwinn bikes)

Fitness Floor & Reception

  • Fitness and reception floor will have highly visible, colorful floor markers to make it easy to maintain appropriate distancing
  • Session length or times will be structured to allow for physical distancing during transitions

Session Size

  • As usual, our sessions are limited to no more than 12 members.  Please only attend a session that you are registered in.

For MEMBERS: How to be prepared 

Member pre-screening at every session


 

In order to ensure everyone’s health and safety, we are asking you to help us be prepared for each exercise session in the following ways:

  1. Be symptom free.
    Please do not attend your exercise session if you are feeling unwell with any COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, dry cough, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, chest pain or pressure. If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms please contact your local healthcare services. 

  2. Self-assessment.
    We ask that you take a moment to do a quick self-assessment before entering the space - you will see a prominent sign at our front door - take a quick read to double check that you are safe to enter on that day.  


Session Transitions Times

Our goal is to minimize the number of people in our clinic at any given time.  We also need some time to disinfect the clinic between sessions, we will be implementing the following measures to ensure your health and safety.

  1. Arrive no more than five!
    Please arrive no more than five minutes before your registered session time. We will be keeping the doors locked between sessions to limit access and to ensure safe physical distancing between sessions. 

  2. Bring only what you need.
    It is highly recommended that you bring only the essentials.  Come dressed for exercise and bring a full water bottle.
    We ask that you do not use the lockers but if you need to - please follow the floor markers and access the lockers one at a time as indicated by the sign. Water filling stations will be closed. 

  3. Keep your distance.
    You’ll see colorful circles on the floor as markers throughout the space to help you keep a safe physical distance from other members. 

Exercise Session Times

Session times will be structured so that we can control the flow of traffic through the clinic and to ensure physical distancing by minimizing incidental contact between session times. This time will also allow for increased disinfecting measures of the exercise space and high touch areas. 

  1. Attend your registered sessions.
    Please register for and attend your sessions at the time shown in your member portal.  Any adjustments to your session time will be clearly communicated to you in advance. 

  2. Move your sessions.
    You can move your sessions up to four (4) hours before it starts to a more convenient session time if you want to.

  3. To mask or not to mask. That is your decision.
    At the clinic, you are welcome to wear your own mask if you choose.  We recognize that exercising with a mask on, especially for those with compromised lung function, can be challenging;  therefore, it is not a requirement.   You’ll be greeted by our team wearing face shields so that we can communicate clearly with you through your entire session.
