Covid-19 Policies and Procedures 2022

The Zero Point studio guidelines have been informed by the Victorian Government, Department of Health, Safe work Australia (https://www.safeworkaustralia.gov.au)

The health and safety of our community at Zero Point and the wider community is our highest priority. 

We believe that Yoga, movement, mind body connection and a sense of inner peace play a vital role in our health and wellbeing.

In line with current recommendations, we request that all persons attending the studio meet the following criteria:

  • No flu-like symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath)

  • No overseas travel within the last 14 days or contact with anyone who has returned from overseas recently

  • No contact with anyone who has been diagnosed with Covid-19, is being tested for it or has flu-like symptoms


CONTACT TRACING

We will be keeping accurate class records of who attends each class. All demographic data must be entered into the Mind Body Online system and we are unable to accept walk in’s at this time. 

QR CODE

All people who attend the studio for any reason whatsoever will be required to check in with the QR Code provided. 

PHYSICAL DISTANCING 

  • All class sizes are in line with government guidelines

  • Reduce person to person contact by staying 1. 5 meters apart

  • No hands on corrections from teachers

  • No more than two people in the reception area at once

  • All social catch ups to happen outside the studio


AIR FLOW

To maintain adequate air flow, an air purifier system will run before, during and after classes. Between classes both sets of doors will be opened for a minimum of 30 minutes.

HYGIENE AND EQUIPMENT

  • Provision of anti-bacterial handwash and paper towel – please dispose in bins provided.

  • All students/participants to hand sanitize upon arrival.

  • Students to bring own water bottles, no glasses or filtered water is able to be provided.

  • Students to bring own mats, props and barre equipment. 

  • No use of shared props such as weights and resistance bands for classes.

CLEANING

The studio will be strictly cleaned before and after each class, with hospital grade disinfectant.

ARRIVALS/DEPARTURES and use of FACILITES

  • All persons to use hand santitizer upon entering studio

  • And most sadly, we must limit person to person socialising time inside the studio – we’re desperate to chat and catch up, and know you are too, but this must happen outside the studio.

VACCINE MANDATE

Currently under the CHO orders we are only permitted to have double vaccinated persons attend our studio. 

Your vaccine certificate must be uploaded to MINDBODY prior to booking any classes or attending the studio. 

All our staff are double vaccinated in accordance with the current mandate. 

AIR FLOW

The studio space is opened between classes to allow for a flow of air. The Ocean Grove studio has doors at both ends which are opened and create a thoroughfare of clean air. The Drysdale studio is fitted with ceiling fans to move air and two doors that air can flow in and out of easily. 

AIR PURIFICATION

Both of our studios use state-of-the-art air purification systems. The systems installed are powerful enough to clean double the space, and then run before, during and after classes. Filters are changed fortnightly and units are cleaned thoroughly every week.
