How we're thinking about reopening Allegiate

While Allegiate does not yet have a set reopening date, we put together a plan for reopening. 

The purpose of this blog post is to give you an overview of what to expect when we reopen Allegiate, once we get the go-ahead from relevant government officials.

Priority #1 is the safety of our members and staff.

Let’s start with sanitization. Here’s what we did last week: 

  1. Total facility disinfectant cleaning by a professional cleaning crew

  2. Wrap-around 360° COVID-19 disinfection spray by a professional cleaning crew

    • Kills all viruses: 30-second kill claim against Coronavirus (COVID-19)

    • Anti-Virus Sprayer with electrostatic technology

    • Safe, no harsh chemicals 

As we think about reopening and keeping everyone safe, we’ll need to make some changes in our regular operations that allow us to:

  • Follow social distancing guidelines

  • Minimize use of shared equipment

  • Increase cleaning frequency

  • Follow other best practice protocols 

Following the points outlined above, we’re thinking about a temporary solution with changes in class schedule, sizes, and structure:

  • 6 people per class. 1 person per rack.

    • This limits shared equipment and allows us to maximize social distancing

  • Classes start every 30 minutes.

    • They start on the turf and finish in the weight room. If it rains, we’ll do movement prep in the members’ lounge.

    • This structure allows us to maintain proper social distance and safely maximize the # of people per hour at Allegiate.   

  • Modified class schedule

    • So members have enough opportunity to safely make it in for a session, we'll adjust amount of classes offered throughout the day.  

  • Shortened class times so we can clean more.

    • Classes will be a few minutes shorter than usual

  • Structured ingress/ egress before and after classes

    • Enter through gate on the turf

    • Exit through the members' lounge usual entrance

    • The flow will be: enter on turf, movement prep on turf, move into weight room, exit through members' lounge

    • This format reduces contact between members.

  • Hand sanitizer stations in gym 

  • Non contact temperature checks

  • Contactless check-in. 

    • No iPad to touch, we’ll check you in. 

  • No showers until further notice

What we’re asking members to do:

  • If you’re sick, stay home. 

  • Book classes in advance – no last-minute sign-ups.

  • Have a mask to enter Allegiate.

  • Wash hands before and after each session.

  • Be understanding with us as we work together through this transition period.

In the event that there's a reported case of coronavirus:

  • We'll notify you

  • We'll take immediate cleaning and safety precautions
