COVID-19 Related Protocol
Body Moves relies on reports and guidelines from credible agencies in deciding protocol for safety during the COVID-19 pandemic era. Such agencies include the WHO, the CDC, Iowa Department of Health and fitness professional associations. As recommendations from these agencies change, Body Moves adapts its protocol to help protect students, instructors and the broader community.
During the COVID-19 pandemic era, Body Moves students and instructors will:
- Wear face coverings while in the studio.
- Practice frequent soap-and-water handwashing.
- Maintain 6-foot distancing among others in the studio.
- Use alcohol-based disinfectant on hands upon entering and leaving the studio
- Use alcohol-based disinfectant on surfaces touched during classes and workouts.
- Yoga and body sculpt students are encouraged to bring their own mats, blankets, and bolsters.
- Street shoes are not permitted in the movement rooms. Many classes are designed for bare feet. If you need to wear shoes, then wear light-weight, soft-soled, non-marking shoes dedicated for indoor-only use.Personal belongings are not allowed in the movement rooms other than equipment needed for the event.
- Stay at home if you have flu-like symptoms. Rest, recover, and prevent the spread of virus.
- We strongly recommend that individuals receive the COVID-19 vaccine and booster.
The studio continues pre-COVID-19 era protocol of daily moping, restroom cleaning, surface cleaning between classes and events with disinfectant of commonly touched hard surfaces, and the use of disposable paper products. Air-flow measures are employed during classes and workouts.
