Covid Safe Guidelines

The health and well-being of our students and staff is the most important when returning to our studios, and following the COVID restrictions, we have the confidence in providing a shared training space that is comfortable and sterile. We want to prevent the spread by encouraging our students and staff to adhere to the following post COVID9 rules and regulations.

Physical Distancing

All Pole & Aerial Divas studios will provide each person with 8 square metres of space in all indoor areas, please see below information to limit the person-to-person contact within the studio:

1.5 metres a part always for each person at all times. Signage on the wall and marks on the floor will achieve the 1.5 metre physical distancing rule
All 1 hour classes will now allow time for cleaning, entries and exits in line with our COVID safe plans
Please do not walk around, spot other students or perform doubles tricks in practice time; please be mindful of the 1.5 metre social distancing rule. Do not touch the stereo during practice time - please ask your Desk Divas
Communal spaces such as the kitchen facilities, waiting rooms and couch areas will be closed until further notice. Please ensure you have enough water for your classes as you will not be allowed to fill your drink bottles up in the kitchen.
We encourage all students to limit person-to-person interaction as much as possible at the desk, so if you have any queries e.g. make up classes, membership questions etc, please email your studio. Our Desk Divas will prioritise cleaning and social distancing in the 15-minute change over.

Hygiene & Cleanliness

Our studios will provide regular cleaning and disinfecting of surfaces and all items handled by multiple people to reduce transmission of the virus. Cleaning procedures will be lifted to ensure all areas are hygienic and safe for all persons coming in and out of the building. The virus can be transmitted from the environment to people when they touch infected items and then touch their mouth, nose, and eyes. Therefore, we encourage regular hand washing and sanitising before and after class. See below further details to ensure both staff and students can help reduce the spread:
Make sure you know the signs of the virus. If you have any of these symptoms or you are sick, please do NOT come into the studio

Studio cleaning procedures will be lifted, they include:
- Regular professional cleaning, weekly. And thorough cleaning by staff daily!
- 'Touch Spots’ – throughout the day, your Desk Divas will be disinfecting all touch surfaces, this includes door handles, light switches, iPads, toilets, soap dispensers etc.
There will be a sufficient supply of cleaning wipes and hand sanitizer at all studios. They will be placed around all areas of the studio. If you have your own hand sanitiser, please bring it with you
Wash and sanitise your hands regularly! Before and after class, using only hand sanitiser is not a substitute for hand washing
If possible, please keep your belongings close to you in class, and at all times (e.g. place pole or aerial bag along the wall in the studio). Otherwise, use pigeonholes provided, but please wipe surface area after use
Please use the studio WOW wipes to wipe down your floor space, any equipment used and other touch points you handled. Do not use the WOW wipes for the poles, please use the metho provided
BRING YOUR OWN TOWELS for pole cleaning and another for your body – before & after every class, spray your towel well with the methylated spirit spray, provided and thoroughly wipe all-around your pole, as high as you used it, all the way down to the ground. And do not forget the floor space you used.
BRING YOUR OWN MAT or a full-length towel to cover ours, and to cover the mats in the Aerial Divas studio. Please wipe down your mats after use with the cleaning wipes provided.
BRING YOUR OWN KNEE PADS - We will NOT be hiring them out during this time. All studios should have more stock of the $20 basic knee pads very soon

Retail & Merchandise

Please refrain from touching all the stock on show, including heels – browse with your eyes
Cash will still be accepted. You may be asked to place the cash straight into the cash tin or, for privates, straight into an envelope
