Covid-19 Response and Safety plan

UPDATED 9/1/21:

Masks are required in studio at all times, regardless of vaccination status. 

We believe it is important to mitigate risk when we can and curb the spread of the Delta variant in our community. 

We continue to make decisions taking into consideration those who are most at-risk. We realize that inside our studio community there are folks who are immunocompromised, undergoing cancer treatments, caring for elderly parents or small children, or working in a school or daycare setting and until the risk is low for those populations, we have an obligation to do what we can to prevent transmission of the Delta variant. 

We hope that this is a momentary precaution and that by being proactive, we can prevent the spread as well as future shut downs of our business and so many others that rely on in-person services to thrive!

• We still ask that you wash or sanitize your hands upon entry
•  Please stay home when you or a member of your household is sick
• We will still be providing 6ft of distance between reformers and limited capacity (no drop ins, class sizes capped at 5 enrollees)
• We continue to offer daily virtual classes so you can work out in the safety of your home for as long as you wish to do so.

We are continuing to enforce the following sanitation and safety protocols:

The studio common areas will be sanitized regularly throughout the day in addition to regular equipment cleaning between clients and classes.

Instructors will wash hands or use hand sanitizer between each session and all clients will be instructed to wash their hands or sanitize immediately upon entering the studio.

Teachers and clients will STAY HOME if they or someone they have been in close contact with have had symptoms of COVID-19 or tested positive for COVID-19. More information here:

If you are unvaccinated and have been in close contact (unmasked, 15 minutes or more, within 6 ft) with someone who has developed symptoms or tested positive: according to MN Department of Health and CDC guidelines you must QUARANTINE for 10 days, regardless of a negative test.

We will waive late cancellation fee if you develop symptoms within 24 hours of your appointment and have to cancel. 

We ask of you:

Make sure you are symptom-free when you come into the studio.

Wear a mask anytime you are in the studio, for your protection and for the protection of others.

Wash or sanitize your hands immediately upon entering the studio. Hand sanitizer will be available in multiple spots throughout the studio.

Wipe down equipment and surfaces/props throughly after each session.

Please wait outside or in your car until just prior to your session time. 

IF YOU HAVE TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID-19, HAVE EXHIBITED SYMPTOMS OR HAVE HAD A FEVER - regardless of Vaccination status:

Please see Mn Dept of Health guidelines for when it is safe to return to normal activities outside the home: https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/coronavirus/close.html#long

-Do not come back into the studio for at least 7 days after the onset of your first symptoms.

- In addition to the 7 day period you must be symptom and fever free (without the aid of fever reducing medication) for at least 48 hours before coming back to class, even with a negative Covid test.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO COVID-19:

- If you are not vaccinated, you are advised by MN Department of Health guidelines to quarantine for 10 days and monitor symptoms. If you have been exposed but tested NEGATIVE you must still quarantine for 7 days after exposure EVEN IF YOU EXPERIENCE NO SYMPTOMS. 

-If you are fully vaccinated, you should stay home and get tested 3-5 days after exposure and monitor possible symptoms. 

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
