Students, Parents, and Friends,
We are pleased to announce that in-person classes will resume effective TUESDAY, JULY 14, 2020. Classes will resume as previously scheduled on Tuesday and Friday evenings. Due to the Public Health Emergency we are currently experiencing, there will be some temporary modifications to our classes and curriculum to help reduce the risks of COVID-19:
1. Face coverings will be mandatory during classes. Exceptions will be allowed only for someone who cannot wear one for medical conditions. Proper medical note will be required. PARENTS/STUDENTS WILL BE RESPONSIBLE TO PROVIDE THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL FACE COVERING FOR CLASS. Failure or refusal to wear one will result in denial of entry.
2. Class size will be limited to 12 students per class, to allow for proper social distancing during classes, as well as, the current capacity limit of 25% imposed by the State of New Jersey.
3. No one will be permitted to wait inside the dojo for students due to current building capacity limits imposed by the State of New Jersey. Parents/friends may wait in their vehicles or outside while adhering to all current State of New Jersey requirements pertaining to social distancing and masks.
4. There will be no physical contact between students unless they are members of the same family or household.
5. Activities will be light to moderate physical exertion.
6. All students and instructors will be screened prior to entry. TRUTHFUL ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ARE EXPECTED. Screening will be conducted one at a time by the senior instructors present. All students and instructors will be required to remain outside of the dojo and adhering to current State of New Jersey requirements including but not limited to social distancing and wearing of masks prior to screening for entry. If you are sick, please stay home and take care of yourself so that we can see you when you are well.
7. All students and instructors will be required to clean their hands upon entry with hand sanitizer (provided). Hand sanitizer and hand soap will be be available for use before and during classes.
8. Changing rooms will be closed to students. Please come dressed ready for classes.
