Pilates Classes Availability

Government Update of 22/02/21

Indoor group classes suspended until 17th May.

The latest government advice of 22/02/21 is that indoor group Pilates classes may resume from 17th May 'at the earliest'. Outdoor group Pilates classes may resume from 29/03/21. We will of course keep you fully up-to-date, and I look forward to seeing you in person soon.

When we return to classes...

Jane Mackenzie's Health and Fitness maintains Covid-Secure status. Please note:

• You must NOT attend group classes if you are any experiencing Covid-19 symptoms, have tested positive, or have been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for Coronavirus.
• You must wear a face-covering when entering, leaving and moving around within each venue. (You do not need to wear a face-covering during the class itself, and it is not recommended, but you may do so if you wish.)
• You may not 'socialise' before or after class in groups larger than 6.
• We must by law keep a register of all participants' names and contact details. (I already do this through information collected on your health screening forms. You will not be able to participate in classes unless you provide a contact telephone number.)
• Please also use your NHS Covid-19 Contact Tracing app to scan the venue barcode each time you attend class. (Whilst this is not mandatory, you are encouraged to do so.)

Jane Mackenzie's Health and Fitness adheres to all mandatory Covid-secure regulations to ensure our clients remain safe at all times. We work in conjunction with our professional industry body (CIMSPA) and insurers (FITPRO) in order to do so. Measures we have put in place include:

• NHS contact tracing adherence
• Documented risk assessments for each teaching venue
• Reduced and strict maximum class sizes to permit required 2m social distancing*
• Maintaining required social distancing between Jane Mackenzie and her class members at all times
• Taking contactless card payments instead of cash
• Strongly encouraging advance booking and payment
• No longer using shared group equipment
• Adherence to recommended hand hygiene protocols
• Ensuring adequate ventilation during classes. (Please note that in order to do so, the class environment may sometimes be slightly cooler than we are used to, so please bring an extra layer to wear just in case.)
• Cleaning of venues between classes
• Keeping everyone up-to-date with the latest regulations and guidance.
• Additional venue-specific safety information may be found on our Class Information page Timetable and Venues section, and also on our Availability page by clicking the Class Percentage bars.

Government guidance, and therefore our operational procedures, may change, and will be updated here accordingly.

Classes at The Three Hills, Sellindge Sports Club and Hythe Cricket Club may be taken outdoors if the weather is good on the day, in which case three more places will become available. If your preferred class is shown as full, please contact Jane if you wish to be informed when we are going outdoors, so that you may attend.

We can also add you to a waiting list in case of cancellations at any of our classes.
