Coronavirus Standards and Protocols
In-person class sizes will be limited to ten students and one teacher to enable all participants to stay at least six feet apart. Spots for mats will be marked in the studio to ensure proper social distancing.
• We ask that you adhere to current social distancing guidelines at all times while present in the studio and stay at least six feet apart from other students and the teacher.
• All studio paperwork and payment will now be completed online prior to your arrival at the studio. Please sign up for class in advance to minimize the amount of time spent checking in at the studio.
• Upon arrival at the studio, all participants will participate in a touchless temperature check and be asked the following questions:
o Have you had close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19 during the last 14 days?
o Are you currently experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms as outlined by the CDC? (e.g., fever, cough, shortness of breath, body aches and pains, sore throat, chills, loss of smell and/or loss of taste)
o If you have a fever of 100.4 degrees F or answer yes to either of the questions above, you will not be permitted to enter the studio.
o You’ll have an opportunity to ask any questions relating to our COVID-19 Standards and Protocols. You can submit any questions about these protocols before class by email to hello@howyoga.co.
• When you arrive:
o Remove your shoes and place any belongings in the cubbies. Please minimize the number of personal belongings you bring to the studio.
o Wash/sanitize your hands upon arrival.
o Please bring your own items for class use. We recommend that in addition to bringing a mat, you bring a towel and water.
o A face covering/mask is required upon entry. Face coverings/masks may be removed once you are on your mat and class instruction has begun.
• While in the studio:
o Please wear your face covering/mask when moving about the studio, including if you need to leave your mat during class and once instruction is completed.
o Please practice appropriate coughing and sneezing etiquette, including covering your cough/sneeze with your elbow to minimize the spread of droplets. Don’t worry – we’ll also have tissues available in the studio!
o Once class instruction has ended, wash/sanitize your hands and exit the studio swiftly to allow staff to begin the cleaning and sanitization process for the next class.
We love spending time with you but right now we ask that you limit your time in studio to the time you need to set up, take class, and clean up after class. This will enable us to help each other stay healthy.
