concerned about covid-19?

Regular exercise is one of the pillars of healthy living. It improves cardiovascular health, lowers blood pressure, regulates hormone function, protects against a variety of diseases and has a profound impact on the normal functioning of your immune system.

In light of the global pandemic, taking care of your health and your immune system is more important than EVER. Not only can exercise have a positive and direct effect on the cells and molecules of your immune system, but it is also known to counter the negative effects of isolation and confinement stress on various aspects of immunity and mental health.

It is normal to feel concerned about returning to public spaces after the extended quarantine period. Here are some facts about the virus as well as steps we are taking to protect you so that you can stay healthy and stay fit.

HOW IS COREOLOGY PREVENTING THE VIRUS FROM SPREADING?

The virus that causes COVID-19 is thought to spread mainly from person to person, primarily through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. Spread is much more likely when people are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).

  • At Coreology, we have arranged the studio to accommodate a minimum of 6 feet distance between equipment and a minimum of 8 feet distance between cardio equipment (treadmills, bikes, etc).

  • We have added extra time in-between classes to limit the number of people at the studio at any given time and to avoid any crowding or congested spaces.

  • We require face masks when entering and exiting the studio or any time where you may be less than 6 feet distance from another person.

  • We are denying studio access to anyone showing symptoms, a temperature above 100.4, or has recently been exposed to the virus.

Although there is still much to learn about the virus, reputable research suggests it is much less likely to contract the virus from touching an object that an infected person touched previously. Nevertheless, we have taken steps to ensure ALL surfaces and equipment that you may come into contact with at Coreology are thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and treated with hospital-grade, EPA-approved disinfectants known to kill COVID-19.

  • All equipment and surfaces are treated daily with PURONE infection control solutions (read about it here).

  • All high-touch surfaces are disinfected frequently throughout the day in addition to the above treatment.

  • All equipment is disinfected in-between classes. Clients are also required to use a disinfecting wipe BEFORE and AFTER using any equipment as an additional safety measure.

One of the most effective ways to prevent spread of the virus is to ensure adequate airflow and prevent stagnant air.

  • We have added air filtration systems, fresh air intakes and powerful exhaust systems to each studio to ensure constant and clean airflow to reduce the risk of re-circulating particles.

We are closely monitoring the evolution of this virus and are committed to following every recommendation from the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the LA County Department of Public Health.

What are the symptoms of covid-19?

As a general rule, if you are feeling even the slightest bit “off” or your body feels rundown or compromised in any way - please DO NOT come to the studio. Email hello@coreologyfitness.com for assistance rebooking your class.

Common symptoms of COVID-19 are:

  • Fever (above 100.4 degrees) or Chills

  • Cough

  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing

  • Muscle aches (not to be confused with exercise-induced muscle soreness)

  • Headache

  • Loss of taste or smell

  • Sore throat

  • Congestion or runny nose

  • nausea or vomiting

What happens if i contract the virus within 14 days of visiting coreology?

If you test positive for COVID-19 and you have visited Coreology in the last 14 days we ask that you please notify us right away. We will respect your privacy and we will not disclose your name or any personal information, but we will alert anyone who may have come into contact with you so that they may get tested as well.

**It is our responsibility to you, our staff and our community to act as contact tracers. For this reason, we will require updated and valid contact information including name, phone number and email address to be on file at all times. This will allow us to contact you in the event you may have been exposed to the COVID-19 virus while at the studio.

WHAT IF I’M NOT COMFORTABLE VISITING THE STUDIO?

Research suggests that regular exercise is vitally important in reducing your chances of contracting COVID-19 or other viruses. Activities such as Coreology workouts also give you an advantage should you contract the virus in the future by boosting your immune system to minimize the harmful effects of the virus, improve your symptoms, expedite your recovery time and lower the severity of the virus.

Nevertheless, we understand that you may not be ready to return to the studio.

We have created CoreologyLIVE, a virtual platform with a variety of high quality on-demand workouts that you can enjoy from the comfort of your home. Monthly access starts as low as $29.99.
