COVID-Safe Studio Guide

 

JAN 2021

We are committed to continuing the safe space we all know and love. To evolve with the current circumstances around COVID-19, please carefully note the below.

Wellbeing

If you are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19, including dry coughs, fever, fatigue, or have been in contact with anyone who has these symptoms - stay home.

All of our classes will be available via Livestream so you can join us from home; for All-Access / Online Members, these will also be collected in a class archive.

We all want to move steadily towards a freer way of sharing space, and the more attentive we can be for each other's wellbeing, the smoother the journey.

** Booking Policy + Cancellations **

Bookings are essential for in-studio and Livestream sessions.

We encourage you to Waitlist where required - flux is the theme of 2020, and it is often the case a spot will open up! If so, you receive an email/text immediately, asking you to confirm your attendance. Please respond.

A No Show or Late Cancellation fee (a 4-hour window for late cancellations) applies for everyone. For Welcome Pass holders, All-Access Members and Online Members, $15 will be debited to your account. For those using single or multi-passes, your pass will be applied to the class.

Due to the limited spots available per session, your courtesy in managing class bookings will be deeply appreciated by all.

Mats & Props

To minimise the risk of transmission, everyone will need to bring their own mats and props.

* We have cork blocks available for in-studio use (as of Monday 14 Dec)*
These will be thoroughly cleaned between each use.

Sustainably made jute and rubber mats and some props will be available for retail (All-Access Members -15% RRP).

Please note that we will NOT be offering sanitising sprays and sponges, due to the nature of this process and the interactions required between hands and mats. You can find a simple, home-made mat cleaning spray recipe on our blog here, or ask Googs to find one of many great options!

If needed, studio mats available for hire at $3/class.


Class Size + Studio Social Distancing

Classes will be limited to 10 people.

Markings on the studio floor will indicate the spacing and mat placement for 4m squared per person, as per Victoria Govt. guidelines. Please be respectful and attentive in how you move through the space.

Adjustments

Hands-on adjustments will not be offered. Classes will be guided vocally with social distancing observed, and minimal movement of the teacher throughout the studio and reception space. Smizing remains permitted and encouraged for all :)

Masks

Current regulations require masks for all public indoor settings. We advise having a mask with you at all times.

Masks will not be required once you are on your mat.

STUDIO Etiquette

Doors will open 15 mins prior to each session, as usual. We have allowed for 30 minutes between classes. This gives plenty of time for each session's yogis to come and go with minimal clustering. Chats and community is still integral, and encouraged - but let's all respect each other's 1.5m space bubble!

Please sanitise your hands upon entry and departure from the studio.

Tea will not be offered. Tap water can be accessed via the kitchenette.

The changing room will remain available, and as with all handles and surfaces around the studio, will be cleaned thoroughly between classes.

 

Thank you for your collaboration in keeping our community and space safe and respectful.
