We're excited to move into Step 3 of re-opening and be able to provide indoor classes and training again. We had a few questions come in off the back of our last post so we thought we'd draw up an FAQ to further explain our re-opening plan.
Q. Is your team fully vaccinated?
Yes, including all of our summer camp staff.
Q. Will you be enforcing a vaccine passport for all members?
We're not asking for proof but we are asking you not to come unless you are fully vaccinated or have a good reason not to be.
While we were forced to be closed, we had government support to tide us over. All of that is winding down now and we have to rebuild and fend for ourselves. If we need to close because of an outbreak, it would really hurt us. This goes for all local businesses, not just BOMB. Please get vaccinated.
Q. Are you doing pods like last time?
The pods are gone but there are clear floor markings to keep everyone at least 6 feet away from each other.
Q. What's your class capacity?
Danforth will be 12-14 and Beach will be 10 for now.
Q. What kind of classes will you run?
We won't be doing any circuits for a while. Everyone will collect their equipment at the beginning of class and either use it for the whole duration or we'll take a cleaning break halfway through to wipe down and switch. This all depends on the size of the class.
If you need additional equipment once class has started, please tell your instructor and they will get it for you.
Q. What will the class logistics and hygiene look like?
You will be screened upon arrival. You will need to wear a mask when entering the gym, grabbing equipment, going to the washroom, and leaving the gym. You'll sanitize your hands upon entry. Disinfectant and towels will be available to clean the equipment after use. Here are our complete COVID-19 guidelines.
Finally, we also want to re-iterate what awesome members we have. Maybe we're saying quiet things out loud here, but with our demographic (40-45+), the values they hold, and their caring attitude for other people, we are very confident that close to 100% would have been double dosed by now.
We are so pumped to have you back inside.
