GENESIS GYM RE-OPENING SATURDAY 25TH JULY

18th July 2020

The day is finally here. The news we have all been waiting for. The gym is officially allowed to open on the 25th July 2020.

We have been hard at work getting everything ready so we can open our doors to you, whilst keeping everyone safe in doing so.

As with most things in todays world there are a lot of changes we have had to implement and certain things will become the new “NORMAL”

Please make sure you read all the details in this email before coming to the gym so you are up to speed on our new policies.

Firstly due to our outdoor exercise area the carpark capacity has been reduced. There are now only 9 available spaces. We ask that wherever possible you walk, cycle or be dropped off at the gym instead of driving.

There are no changing room or shower facilities available so please come dressed in appropriate sports wear. There are no lockers available for storing personal items. The toilets are in use but for one person at a time only. The female changing rooms have a one way system in operation so please stick to that. Our water machines are also not in use to please bring a pre-filled bottle.

Upon arrival at the gym please form a queue in the carpark abiding by the 2m social distancing guidelines. Entering reception one person at a time you will be required to firstly sanitize your hands and secondly sign your name in the track and trace record. Once you have done both of these you can enter the gym following the one way system up the stairs and into the gym areas. The doors are all labelled with entry or exit and the floors have arrow stickers which must be obeyed at all times.

During use of the gym please be vigilant and responsible for your own personal hygeine and for the hygeine of the equipment you use. There are an abundance of spray bottles and paper roll located all around the gym for you to clean any used equipment. This will include: cardio machines, resistance machines and hand held kit such as dumbbells, swiss balls and gym mats. The staff will take care of communal gym areas such as hand rails and door handles on a very regular basis.

In terms of the gym diary and personal training sessions we are starting with a slightly reduced staff level to allow us to build up gradually. If you wish to book a personal training session please speak to a member of staff during a visit to the gym.

With regards to our fitness class timetable we are starting with a reduced offering. Some of our classes will not be returning right now. Spin classes will return with a limited capacity of 6 bikes only. Because of the capacity reduction we have decided to implement a few rules to start with to try and be fair and accessbile to a wider range of our members.Spin classes will only be available to exisiting gym members and not on a pay as you go basis. Gym members will be limited to one spin class per week to start with, in the hope this can be adapted if the guidlines change.The class sign up system will remain the same as pre-lockdown. Sign up on the boards outside of the studio. All exisitng class sign up rules apply.

As with everything in the world right now, things are changing on a very regular basis. With this in mind we ask for your patience on your return to the gym. We want to abide by all of the government guidlines to make sure our members and our staff are as safe as possible. If you think something is not in order please let us know as soon as you can and we can work on a solution. We plan to adapt our policies frequently so that we stay up to date with any guidelines we receive.

We can’t wait to have you all back.

WE ARE COMING BACK!

Good morning Genesis Family.

We have some very exciting and long awaited news. Government guidelines now state we are allowed to operate outdoor 1:1 and small group training sessions.

Our first step is to trial outdoor sessions in the second half of June. This trial period will be to make sure all our health and safety procedures are in place as client and staff hygeine is our main priority.

As we enter July some of the rules around employees are changing, enabling us to bring certain members of staff back to run outdoor training sessions. To be as safe as we can we will only be operating one member of staff at the gym at one time. As a start point our trainers will only be offering 1:1 face to face sessions as we will continue to offer our online content throughout the trial period. If you are a bigger group than two wanting to train together please let us know and we can see if any of our trainers are comfortable to offer this service yet.

We have divised a temporary rota from Wednesday 1st July and will invite members to reach out to us to book themselves in with their preferred trainers (availability permitting)

Please see the Rota below.

 

Monday Morning 8am-2pm MARTIN. Monday afternoon 2pm-8pm DEBBIE

Tuesday Morning 8am-2pm MARTIN. Tuesday afternoon 2pm-8pm SIMON

Wednesday Morning TBA. Wednesday afternoon 2pm-8pm HARRY

Thursday Morning 8am-2pm SIMON. Thursday afternoon 2pm-8pm TBA

Friday morning 8am-2pm MARTIN. Friday afternoon 2pm-7pm DEBBIE.

Saturday morning 8am-2pm SIMON.

 

Outdoor sessions will be in the Genesis carpark and will be 45 minutes in duration. We are able to utilise a lot of our mobile equipment that we can transfer from the gym to the carpark. Please be aware our trainers will have to keep a minimum 2m distance from clients and session plans will reflect this. At the end of every session the trainer will spend 15 minutes cleaning equipment so that it is safe for the next client to use.

The outdoor sessions will be priced at £20 each. We will be running a credit system based on any membership payments you have made during the gyms closure. As an axample; if you have paid us £40 in April and May you have £80 in credit which will entitle you to 4 x 1:1 outdoor sessions. Once you have used up your alotted credit you can choose to continue as pay as you go. The finer details will be sorted with the management team.

Some health and safety points: The toilet facilities will be in use but no shower facilities are available. For health and hygeine reasons our water machines are not permitted so please make sure you bring yourself a pre-filled water bottle. We will request all clients to wash their hands thoroughly at the begining and end of the exercise sessions and we will provide spray and paper towel for you to use during the session should you require. If you do book a session but feel unwell or show any symptoms of illness please cancel your session and remain at home isolated for the correct period of time outlined by the government.

If you are interested in taking us up on a 1:1 outdoor session, please reply to this email with some more information. Please study our initial rota and then detail your preferred trainer, the time and day that would suit you best and any questions you may have regarding our outdoor offering (starting wednesday 1st July)

Once received Martin will co-ordinate with the staff and start to create a diary. If your requested session is available we will be in contact to confirm, if not we will offer you further options to suit.

We understand that in a world that is changing so frequently you might not yet be keen to join us. That is completely fine and we hope our online content is going someway to keeping you active.

 

We look forward to hearing from you and are excited to start training clients again.

 

Stay Safe, Stay Active.

Membership Fees

8th April 2020
I hope you are safe and well and keeping up with regular exercise during these unprecedented times.
I wanted to give you an update on where you stand in terms of your membership fees. Many of you will by now, have had a phone call from one of the Genesis Team to make sure you are well and to answer any questions you may have.If you haven’t received a call yet, please be patient we are working through a very long list.
I would like to give a massive thank you for all the messages of support for Genesis we have received from our amazing clients, it really shows us how much of a community we are and it pushes us to continue to deliver our service to you.
In my previous email I mentioned that as a member focussed gym and we rely on our membership fees to keep going. The chancellor has laid out plans for businesses, to support its staff which is fantastic and means once we are able to safely re-open, we anticipate to start up exactly where we left off.
Excluding the cost of staff there are still financial commitments the gym has, to keep it running. This is why we have asked that if you are in a position to keep your membership going through this time of closure it will help us, as a small local independent business. We also see it as a vote of confidence and confirmation in you returning to the gym as soon as we are open.
Any fees paid to Genesis during the current closure will be reimbursed in various forms, this means if you are on;
A Course – You can come and pick up where you left off.
Year in advance membership – Your renewal date will be pushed back by the length of the closure.
Standing order membership – When you return to Genesis you will be offered extra Personal Training sessions or the chance to bring a friend or family member to the gym for a free membership period.
In terms of continuing to exercise please make sure you are following our Facebook page https://en-gb.facebook.com/genesislifestylebath where some of our instructors are posting regular video workout ideas as well as some of their classes being LIVE streamed from their homes.If you have any questions regarding any of the information in the email or would like to discuss your membership payment please get in touch by phone or email, 01225 481234 or info@genesisbath.co.uk. If you call please leave a message as we are checking the phone every other day.
