With the rise in COVID-19 cases in Alberta, we are implementing additional measures to ensure the continued safety of our staff and students. Upon entering the studio, a member of our staff will take your temperature using a touchless thermometer. Any students with elevated temperatures will not be permitted in the studio. We are taking every precaution to minimize movement in shared spaces and provide classes without interruption. Late students will not be permitted entry... beyond the scheduled class start time. The door will be locked as of the scheduled start time so please arrive early to ensure you don’t miss your class. As per our previous protocols, students will be asked to wait in their cars until they are invited in. This allows us time to take temperatures, sanitize high touch surfaces, and have the students from the prior class exit the building. Masks continue to be required upon entering the building. We thank you for your cooperation in ensuring the safety of our community and helping us keep our doors open. For a complete list of our reopening policies and safety protocols visit our website using the link below. This link is also in our bio. https://embracepoleart.com/covid-19-info/ If you have any questions related to any of our policies, please email [email protected] #embracepoleart #embracethejourney #staysafe
