WE ARE BACK!!!
05/27/20 - Two months ago, our academy was forced to temporarily close its doors. This was an extremely emotional event. At first, we hoped it would be short lived, but as time went on, it became obvious that it wasn’t.
We didn’t have time to prepare a back up plan, but luckily we utilized ZOOM to keep engagement and even create some EXTREMELY memorable experiences.
Throughout this time, over 100,000 small businesses in NY State alone have been permanently closed. I have watched dozens of fellow martial arts academy owners close their doors. While observing these sad and alarming events, I noticed the “curve” starting to flatten in our county. I became optimistic.
That optimism was difficult to hang on to, when I realized our academy was in the last phase of re-opening. As the weeks turned to months, it became increasingly difficult to keep up membership. That was expected, the financial burden many people are facing is brutal.
SO…
Under the guidance of community health experts in infectious disease and critical care specialists, we have devised a RE-OPENING Plan that promotes EXTREME safety and is aligned with CDC guidelines for the safety of our gym and every member.
We understand this will be a patient battle. We are taking a phased approach initially and will be reanalyzing data and community opinions week by week. At first our classes will not be normal. But it will be a start as we look to return back to where we were in March. We have created a creative training plan and will also have ALL of our classes streaming live on ZOOM for those who may not may comfortable to return or if classes that evening are full.
And with all of this expert help and with the outpouring support of our Academy to re-open, the time is NOW! WE ARE OPEN.
I have been working with a team of lawyers and monitoring things very closely. Although we are not allowed to re-open right now, EVERYONE I have been in contact with says our chances to open and not be bothered are good.
We will be making a NEW temporary schedule with shorter classes, increased cleaning protocols, and screenings upon entry. There will be no kids classes in the first phase of re-open. PLEASE DOWNLOAD and read the attach training guidelines we have created so you can be up to speed with all temporary and important protocols. If we are going to be successful with this, we have to be strict and strict with ourselves. We can make no mistakes and must trust each other and self monitor CLOSELY.
We understand you may want to bypass this phase and get back to rolling…don’t worry, we are going to. But for now, let’s show the world that we can re-open safely and effectively!
REMEMBER THIS…Our PRIMARY goal is to allow everyone to return to training while being extremely militant about our health and safety. Let’s do it!
