Iso Fit is Re-Opening!

11 Feb 2021 - UPDATE

Dear Iso Fit Clients,

COVID-19 Corona Virus Policy Update

It has been a tough period for everybody and we hope you are all keeping well! We much appreciate your patience and support of our online Zoom sessions that we offered throughout the 10 weeks (70 days) closure period. 

The latest Government announcement is that all fitness centers and Pilates studios may open their doors to clients on the 18th Feb 2021! Great news!!! We have certainly missed you and look forward to welcoming you back, so we can continue our shared journey towards health and well-being!

Please contact Hon in order to book your sessions or if you have any questions.

As mentioned previously all packages will be extended for 10 weeks (70 days) -the period of the Government closure. 

We are still waiting final confirmation, but as far as we know right now, there are a maximum of two people allowed per group (including the teacher) OR 1.5m distance OR effective partitioning. 

As a result, we are still able to have the following types of classes:

  • Private classes - no change
  • Duet/Semi Private classes - as long as there is a partition or 1.5m between the clients
  • Group classes - as long as there is a partition or 1.5m between the clients

There have been many inquiries to the government with regards to the interpretation of the latest guidelines, so please note that our policy on client limits etc are fluid. If anything changes, we will be sure to let you know. 

We will continue to remain vigilant on our hygiene and mask protocols (see below for more details). 

If you have any questions, please let us know. 

Hygiene and Safety 

Here at Iso Fit, we are doing everything within our power to create an even cleaner and safer environment for you to train in. Hygiene practices for our teachers, staff and you, our valued clients, have been bolstered significantly. We have requested that on arrival to Iso Fit, teachers wash their hands and use alcohol gel before they start teaching. We kindly request you to do the same.

What are we doing to keep you safe?

Our studio  may be opening but we need to continue to be careful. We will be vigilant with protective measures for your health and safety, as we have been advised. Many of these involve the close cooperation of clients. Please assist us in ensuring everyones’ safety.

Iso Fit will:

  • Take  temperature checks at the studio entrance.

  • Provide sanitizer and soap for clients and staff members for hand cleansing when entering the studio.

  • Request clients to complete a very short health questionnaire before taking a class or session.

  • Request teachers to wear a mask at all times.

  • Request teachers to provide a negative test result every 14 days (as per government regulations)

  • Request clients to wear a mask at all times. Plastic mask underlays are available free of charge.

  • Wipe down of equipment surface before and after use. Part of this effort will include providing disinfectant spray and wipes for our clients to use during their sessions.

  • Disinfect of all areas and surfaces within Iso Fit on a regular basis.

  • Create extra space between equipment as well as strategically block off some equipment in order to create distance between clients. 

  • Regularly re-apply Raze anti bacterial agent to the wood and leather surfaces. This is a self-sanitising coating is a breakthrough photocatalyst technology which uses light to break down indoor pollutants, rendering them obsolete. 

  • Operate Air Purifiers in both studios

  • Keep windows open to increase ventilation.

  • Continue to stagger group class times in order to minimize contact between classes and the amount of people that gather in reception at the same time - please check the schedule for the updated times. 

  • Limit the number of clients in the studio:

    • 6 maximum in a group class (not including teacher). (TO BE CONFIRMED)

    • 6 maximum in the studio room (not including teachers). 

    • 2 Maximum in Physio room (not including teachers)

  • Provide masks and disposable latex gloves for those that want extra protection during sessions. 

  • Provide the option for clients to purchase their own straps to use on the reformer/gyro tower.

  • Provide strategic barriers/partitions between pieces of equipment. We have purchased new and improved partitions for this purpose. 

What can you do?

  • If you are feeling unwell, do not attend your session. (Clients who display any flu-like symptoms will be requested to leave the studio)
  • You are required to wear a mask during your sessions
  • You are required to use the Leave Home Safe app OR sign the health form when attending sessions
  • Towels. Carry two with you – one to spread across each machine and one to wipe sweat from your face.
  • Sanitize and wash your hands with soap as often as possible. Sanitizer is provided.
  • We encourage you to take advantage of the wipes and sprays around the studio to wipe down equipment before and after use. Please ask teachers for assistance with this. This is a combined effort between teacher and client. 
  • Carry Kleenex or some tissues around with you. Try to use when touching your face or things like the water fountain.
  • We encourage all clients to regularly get tested (once every two weeks) to help break any transmission chains in the community. 
  • Stay informed and be sensible. 

Thank you so much for your cooperation.

So, in keeping with the advice of infectious disease specialists who say that if you are mindful,  you can still go to your favorite gym or workout venue safely, we look forward to welcoming you back. 

Finally it is our unquestionable goal that every client in every session or class has a great work out and a wonderful experience!!

WELCOME BACK!

With best wishes,
Your Iso Fit
