Safe Pilates in the age of Covid

Staying safe in these challenging times is a top priority at JoPilates. After a summer of teaching outdoor Pilates by the Bay I reopened the Sun Room in September 2020 welcoming clients old and new. A mild Fall allowed many sessions to be conducted with windows and French doors wide open – but a strict mask and cleaning protocol also meant we were safe to close up and get cozy through the Winter months. The studio is equipped with a powerful HEPA air purifier, which replaces all the air every 15 minutes. I am now double vaccinated and Covid vaccinations are required for clients, allowing masks to become optional. All equipment and used props are disinfected between clients with CDC approved cleaning products. Sessions are now 50-minutes long to accommodate this important protocol.
