Safety Cleaning Practices
FPF EXTRA SAFETY MEASURES
Now that our plan is laid out, we want to make sure you know about all of the additional health and safety precautions we’re taking at FPF!
We will allow for more time between PT sessions/Classes so we are able to clean equipment and our facility more effectively. Our class schedule will be updated on a monthly basis.
UPGRADED CLEANING SCHEDULE
Equipment will be thoroughly disinfected throughout the day after each use with health Canada approved disinfectant. This includes the regular cleaning of doorknobs, shoe cubby, front desk area, and any other surfaces or objects that are touched throughout the day. Our facility will also have a deep clean sanitization on a daily basis.
Additionally, 10 minutes of dedicated cleaning time will be set aside after every class to “reset” the group fitness studio and prepare for the next class.
TAPING THE FLOOR
We have taped the floor in the group fitness room so you are 6 feet apart from the next person and group instructor.
INCREASED VENTILATION
We will keep the studio well ventilated by exhausting the air in the group fitness room, opening the doors when appropriate and adjusting the air conditioning/heat as needed.
