Covid-19 has been a global humanitarian crisis that impacted us all. Our thoughts are with those families that have been directly affected by the pandemic and we are forever grateful for our amazing team and clients who have helped us survive as a business. The safety and experience of our employees and clients will always be our top priority. Below you will find information about our current Covid related precautions and policies. If your question is not answered, please contact us.
What is your vaccination policy? (Updated 3/5/22)
The Key to NYC Pass is concluding on March 7th, and at that time we will no longer be collecting vaccination status for new clients. We will continue to maintain vaccination status for existing clients who have shown us their vaccination information, for use in the event that the program is reinstated. If you would prefer that we delete your vaccination status, please email us at info@aveapilates.com.
What is your mask policy? (Updated 2/10/22)
The safety of our staff and clients is always our top priority. Based on the declining Covid infection rates in NY State and New York City, we are pleased to reduce our requirements so that once again, masks are recommended, but not required, in our studios.
Please understand that we may need to modify this policy based on continuing developments and we will do our best to inform all clients ahead of any changes. We do ask that you respect the privacy, and the decision of any clients who choose to wear, or not wear, a mask while in our studios.
What are your Covid-19 additional safety policies?
We try and maintain reasonable safety precautions, and we appreciate your cooperation with these. Updated policies will be posted prominently in each studio.
- All clients must wear socks. Grip socks are preferred.
- Please arrive no earlier than 10 minutes prior to your session and no later than 5 minutes prior to the scheduled start of the session.
- Please depart promptly following the completion of the session.
- If you are symptomatic or may have been exposed, please stay home.
What additional precautions is Avea taking?
