COVID-19 GUIDELINES

Greetings RGA Middetown Family

Under Phase 4 of the NYS reopening guidelines, Martial Arts falls under the category of Sports and Recreation.  With this news we are very pleased to announce that the time has FINALLY arrived for the academy to re-open our doors!!

• Monday, August 10th we will resume classes with a revised schedule to include new adjustments which address the health and safety of our members and their families. 
  All classes will be reduced to 25% capacity. The new schedule will be available on our website, rgamiddletown.com.

• All members and guardians will be required to sign a COVID waiver.

• We ask at this time when possible for members to come to class in training attire to keep locker room use to a minimum.

• All staff and members will have their temperature taken prior to entering the academy.  Anyone who shows a temperature above 100.4 F will not be permitted in.

• Any non-member will not be allowed into the academy.  We ask for all parents dropping off students to remain in their car until the end of class, at which time they can pick-up students at the door.

• New member inquiry will be done by appointment only.

• After classes we require socializing be kept at a minimum inside the building.

• There will be hand sanitizing stations located at both the front and back of academy. 
  All members will be encouraged to use them frequently.

• Masks are not mandatory as they can disrupt breathing during strenuous exercise. However, they are NOT prohibited for use by those who choose to wear them.

• Fans and air conditioning will be continuously running to insure good air circulation throughout the academy.

• All mats will be cleaned and sanitized at the end of each class.

 

Lastly, we implore anyone who may feel sick or under the weather in any way to STAY HOME!!  We all need to look out for one another and understand that EVERYONE’s safety must be top priority!

 

Thanks to each and everyone of you for your patience and loyalty during this difficult time.  We look forwarding to seeing you all back on the mats soon.
