On behalf of the team at NZKM, I am writing to let you know what we’re doing to prioritise your health and wellbeing when you train with us amidst concerns about COVID-19.
We take great care to provide you a superior training experience in our Fitness, CQT, Kids Classes, Workshops and Personal Training sessions.
We are all part of a global community .. and share responsibility to stop the spread of this virus. To this end, we are taking steps to help make your experience with us as safe as possible. But in doing so, we believe that our considered approach will help you continue to work on your natural immunity and resilience to Covid19 through your health and wellbeing.
These steps we take will follow Ministry of Health guidelines and have been divided into 2 phases. (1) Immediate Action and (2) Action to further mitigate risk as or when required.
As our first phase response we have increased the frequency at which we clean and sanitise the studio and equipment. We have also instituted procedures where participants and visitors will be required to used hand sanitizers on entry and exit from the studio. In addition, we will provide hand sanitizers as well as wipes for your use at any time you feel it is needed. The trainers will encourage their use and where it involves children or teens, enforce our policies. We would also encourage participants to enter the gym close the actual time of training minimising unnecessary interaction, and allowing for staff to sanitise the training areas between sessions.
Our second phase of response is dependent on the evolving situation and will follow changes in Ministry of Health guidelines. We would then take steps to limit class sizes. We would also use open-air environments to conduct group classes, and minimize training interaction / use of equipment.
We trust that these steps will go considerable way in ensuring your faith in us to act appropriately and proportionately in this time of uncertainty.
We look forward to seeing you all in our classes, and we thank you for your continued support.
