**URGENT STUDIO ANNOUNCEMENT**
To our much loved Living OM community,
Manu and I wanted to reach out to you amid growing concerns about Covid-19 to let you know that your wellbeing is important to us. Therefore Manu has returned to Erina to nurture our community and studio.
During this time of uncertainty we need more than ever to come back to our practice and trust. Yoga is such a powerful and healing tool. We can use it to increase our immunity, strengthen ourselves physically, mentally and emotionally and experience our true nature.
We are doing everything possible to stay open for our community whilst keeping up-to-date with the NSW Health guidelines and new social distancing measures.
Here’s some ways we will be supporting you:
· Manu will be taking a majority of the classes going forwards and will be self isolating as much as possible between classes.
· Our FAR-infared heating panels provide negative ionisation and anti bacterial sterilisation to the room environment and are used in many hospitals.
· The studio will be mopped & wiped down with antibacterial products between all classes. Including all ‘high-touchpoints' (i.e. door handles, countertops and storage cubes etc.)
· We will be limiting class sizes to a maximum of 15 with mats spaced 1.5m apart.
· We have removed our iPad and many of our props. Leaving only those required for your safety.
Here’s some ways you can support our community:
· If you are feeling unwell, recently returned from overseas or have been in close contact with someone who has, please stay home.
· Keep up to date with our timetable and BOOK for all classes. (visit our website: www.livingom.com.au/erina-studio or use the MindBody APP)
· Bring your OWN mat, props & at least one large towel to every class & follow our spacing guidelines. (Towels can make great props too!)
· Wash your hands diligently before you enter the space and again after class
· Those requiring props, use your towel to cover the prop and leave it in the ‘used’ pile ready for cleaning.
· Stay informed and grounded in the facts: a great resource is the World Health Organization (www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public)
We also encourage you to do your best to strengthen your immune system by making sleep a priority, eating well, getting lots of fresh air and sunshine, and continuing to move your body daily.
Being in a state of Yoga helps one adapt with ease and grace, to take ACTION rather than to RE-ACT and to mitigate all fear.
Some exciting news.....We are busy working on an online platform so we can continue to support you in anyway we can especially if choosing to self isolate. Stay tuned on our website and page for more details.
More than ever we are asking our Living OM community to lead by example, to practice kindness and compassion and to take radical responsibility for your thoughts, words and actions during these unusual times.
We thank you for your ongoing support!
Much love always,
🙏🙏
Sally & Manu
