“Our signs are there to make sure people know the six-feet distances and also limited the number of people in the building, so everybody has to preregister for classes, workout times and personal workout sessions so we know who is in the building at all times. We have those wellness checks at the front door for everyone who comes in.”

“We do offer one on one personal training sessions. We can also offer indoor classes to 15 people. We also have general membership coming up for self-guided workouts.
