HEALTH and WELLNESS Protocols

PLANNING FOR YOUR PILATES SESSION

  • Effective September 15, 2021, clients must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination, or proof of negative COVID-19 test, prior to your session. If you are vaccinated, you will only need to show proof of vaccination once. If you are not fully vaccinated, you will need to show a negative test at each session.
  • If you arrive early, please remain in your car until five minutes prior to your session. Scheduling has been adjusted to allow more time for cleaning and disinfecting between sessions.
  • When you enter the studio, wash your hands for at least 20 seconds, using the provided touch-less soap dispenser and paper towels. A trash bin is located next to the sink to discard paper towels after drying hands, or after using them to open the door as you leave.
  • Leave valuables at home. Bring into the studio only what is necessary (keys, socks, water bottle, towel, wallet). Personal items should only be stored in the cubbies. Please do not use the chairs, countertop, etc., to store personal items.
  • As an added layer of protection, clients are required to wear socks during sessions. Any kind of socks are acceptable— these do not need to be Pilates-style sticky socks. I will continue to have stickybesocks for purchase if you would like to stock up. I recommend keeping a couple of clean pairs in your car so you won’t forget.

SAFETY MEASURES

  • All Reformer and Cadillac straps have been replaced with Balanced Body® Vinyl Covers to allow for more effective sanitation between sessions.
  • Touch-less soap dispensers have been installed at the hand washing station by the entrance of the studio and in the restroom.
  • Hand sanitizer is available throughout the studio.
  • Since opening in 2014, Galante Pilates has utilized cleaning products that comply with the Environmental Protection Agency criteria for List N disinfectants. Additional supplies have been purchased, and we will continue to maintain our high standards of cleanliness and disinfection between client sessions.
  • Galante Pilates will continue to be cleaned and disinfected weekly by the same professional cleaning company contracted since opening.
