COVID-19
​
COVID-19 is a public health emergency. Everyone needs to assess and manage the risks of COVID-19, and in particular businesses need to consider the risks to their workers / volunteers and customers. As an employer or as an operator of a sports or leisure facility, we also have a legal responsibility to protect workers, volunteers, customers and users from the risk to their health and safety. This means we need to think about the risks we/you face and do everything reasonably practical to minimise them, recognising that we cannot completely eliminate the risk of COVID -19​
​

OUR COMMITMENT TO KEEPING YOU SAFE IN THE STUDIO
​
Objective: To ensure distancing is possible by limiting the number of customers able to access the facilities.
Clients and trainers will be expected and will have space to keep a safe distance from all within the area.
Only a max of 3 clients/customer will be allowed to access the main PT area at a time, total segregated areas are possible and will be provided for clients when requested.
All sessions are booked in advance with no exceptions.
No clients/customers will gain access if they feel unwell, present symptoms or have been told to self isolate.
Clients/customers will only have access at the scheduled time of booking.
The segregated areas have different access points and if you are using one of these you will be told what entrance to use.
​
Studio Ventilation
​
Doors that open outside in the PT areas will be left open when possible to let fresh air circulate in that area, our PT areas do have an outside door to open.
Air Conditioning will only be used in the main PT studio and studio 2, not in studio 1, this will prevent air traveling from the Main PT area to Studio 1.
