THIS IS NO LONGER RELEVANT
CORONAVIRUS GUIDELINES & PROCEDURES
FOR BODYDANCE, EASTER COMPTON
BOOKING
Numbers are restricted to allow for social distancing, so you will now need to book your place.
You will be able to book for one week at a time, and the booking for the next Tuesday or Thursday classes each week will open after that Tuesday or Thursday classes are over.
I will deal with the bookings on a first come first served basis.
If there are spaces, you can book right up until the day before (so long as payment is received).
To book, you will need to email me on laili@exercisewithlailibrooks.com
When booking a place, you will need to give me your full name, and all phone numbers - mobile and landline - for test and trace purposes.
This is required by the government guidelines (see link above).
If any participant later displays COVID19 symptoms - please let me know - then all other participants on that day will be able to be contacted.
Obviously, please do not attend if you are presenting with any symptoms, thank you.
Please also confirm (for clarity) the day and date of the Tuesday or Thursday that you are booking for (and which Tuesday class - as I teach one in the evening in Bradley Stoke as well.....).
I will reply to let you know if there is an available place, and I will then hold that place for you for 24 hours until I have received payment.
Once payment has been received, I will contact you again to confirm your booking.
If you subsequently need to cancel your booking (after payment), I will only be able to refund you* if I am able to re-sell that place (you will have to trust me), otherwise I'm afraid that you will forfeit that payment (so the earlier that you can let me know, the better chance I will have of refilling that place).
* 'Refunding' may entail holding that payment for a subsequent week.
If the class has already sold out when you contact me, then I will let you know that I have placed you on the waiting list, and will obviously contact you again if a place subsequently becomes available.
If a place becomes available very close to the date (within the last 24 hours), then I will contact all of those left on the waitlist, and then take the booking from the first to respond (just in case the first person on the list were not to pick up my message in time).
To make payment, please pay by bank transfer.
This is to prevent the handling of cash - a transmission risk - and also to enable us to maintain social distancing on the day.
The fee is £7.00 per person, per class.
Thank you.
PLEASE EMAIL ME TO REQUEST MY BANK DETAILS :- laili@exercisewithlailibrooks.com
If you were wanting to send me payment for several weeks in one go (not necessary or required, but some of you have queried this.....) -
YOU WILL STILL NEED TO BOOK EACH WEEK.
You will NOT be able to block book out a number of weeks, as this would prevent others from getting a fair chance of booking on to a class.
Therefore, if you were to do this, then I will keep a cash sheet for you, and deduct a weeks payment from your total on any week that you are able to book a place.
Please note, that the same rule of cancellation will apply as stated above :-
if you were to book, and then cancel, and I am unable to refill that place in time for the class,
then that amount will still be deducted from your cash sheet.
TEST AND TRACE
You all need to now give me your full name, and all phone numbers - mobile and landline - for test and trace purposes.
This is required by the government guidelines (see link above).
If any participant later displays COVID19 symptoms - please let me know - then all other participants on that day will be able to be contacted.
Obviously, please do not attend if you are presenting with any symptoms, thank you.
UPON ARRIVAL
Please enter through the main entrance at the side of the building (even though you will see the fire exit doors opening on to the car park wide open as well).
If other people are arriving at the same time as you, make sure that you stay socially distanced as you enter, and please wear a mask until inside the Carnival Suite.
All doors will be propped open, so you shouldn't need to touch anything.
There will be sanitising dispensers available.
PLEASE USE ONE OF THEM -
Please sanitise your hands upon entering the building, and before entering the hall.
Thank you.
Please arrive dressed ready to exercise as much as you can, and once in the hall, stay at least 2 metres apart from others while putting any bag onto the window ledges and/or changing shoes if necessary.
Of course I will be there (at the front) to greet and advise you if necessary as well.
Face masks are optional during the session, and not required by law - in fact it is recommended that they are not worn during exercise - but I will leave it up to your own preference. You can get really hot under a mask.
Once you have put down your bag, take your water bottle with you to your own spot (more on this below), to minimise people moving / walking around the room during the class.
Once you are all on your designated spot, you will stay there for the whole class (unless a toilet break is required of course).
SOCIAL DISTANCING DURING THE CLASS
The hall will be carefully measured out to allow for the required social distancing, and will be marked with small coloured stickers on the floor.
Please move to one of the marked spots, one at a time - DON'T RUSH ALL AT ONCE !!
(and don't forget to take your water bottle with you !)
I will be modifying the class, so that there will be minimal moving off of your spot for the entire hour.
I hope that this helps to reassure you.
VENTILATION
We will keep the hall fully ventilated to allow full flow of fresh air, as per the guidelines, by opening all of the windows, and all of the doors.
This will include the double main doors; the inner foyer glass doors, and the fire exit doors at the back of the hall, providing a full through flow of fresh air.
(Therefore - if it is a chilly day, make sure that you dress accordingly !!!).
However, as we move into winter / colder days, the government guidelines state that :-
"The natural forces that drive air through these openings (wind and indoor/outdoor temperature difference) are greater and therefore the openings do not to be opened as wide. Opening of just high level vents, rather than low and high level vents, can enable more mixing of the outdoor air with indoor air before reaching the occupied zone – this can help enable more fresh air to be introduced to the space. If natural ventilation openings are the only mechanism for delivering outdoor air into a space it is important not to completely close them when the spaces are occupied as this can result in very low ventilation rates."
Therefore, we won't need to open all of the main windows and doors fully - maybe just ajar.
TOILET FACILITIES
Only one person at a time are allowed in the toilets. There are signs up advising this as well.
The Halls have assured me that they will be fastidiously cleaning all door handles, taps, and facilities etc. throughout the building, but obviously just try not to touch too many surfaces, and wash your hands thoroughly afterwards, as per the by now well known guidelines.
I think that using the toilet is just common sense really.
There will be hand sanitisers as well - and also disposable tissues - available throughout the building, including in the toilets.
LEAVING THE SESSION
Again, please be mindful of maintaining social distancing when collecting your bag, and leaving; and exit via the fire exit door at the back of the hall into the car park :-
Please sanitise your hands again (for your own safety) as you leave the building.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Laili.x
