FCYP COVID-19 Protocol

 

We want to provide you with information about what the Full Circle Yoga + Pilates team has done to keep our space clean and safe in response to the presence of COVID. Our goal is to not only provide to you the safest environment and cleanest studio experience possible, but also to help you make an educated decision on when and where you feel most confident rejoining your communal practice. Your safety & comfort are our highest priorities.

Improving the Superlative - A Breath of Fresh Air

Have your heard about our air? Yes, our AIR! During the mandated COVID closure, we took the opportunity to upgrade our already amazing air handling system to further ensure the safety and health of all those who walk through our doors. As yogis, we know that the breath is a vehicle for prana and our goal has always been to provide you with the cleanest and most hygienic studio experience available. Our existing clean & quiet Far InfraRed Heating system coupled with our advanced handling system was designed to provide an outstanding hot yoga experience . Though our existing system was unparalleled in our local area, we’ve taken several extra steps to improve our already unsurpassed system to rise to the demands of our “new normal”.

Where we started…

We’ve always offered:

  • non-ozone air scrubbers

  • CO2 mitigation

  • advanced air filtration

  • Controlled humidity

  • Clean & quiet Far InfraRed Heat (FIR)

How we’ve improved…

We’ve rebuilt our air handling system to operate in the same way as “negative pressure” air handling systems hospitals use. In addition to our existing system components, we’ve added:

  • Segregated trunk systems for full exchange of indoor air with outdoor air to completely eliminate the recirculation of airborne bacteria and other aerosolized particles.

  • HEPA filtration to filter particles down to 0.3 microns

  • Electrostatic particle capture system,

  • Additional duct-mounted UV lights to condition and sanitize fresh air

  • Designated furnace system to warm/cool fresh outdoor air before bringing that air into the studio to supplement our FIR Heat.

Modified Entry and Exit Procedures

Ask about the current class entry and exit procedures we are currently implementing to ensure clear flow into and out of the studio while maintaining safe social distancing protocol.

Deep Clean

We are taking additional steps to clean and sanitize our facilities, props, studio, etc. Feel free to ask us about our safety and sanitation measures as well as the hospital-grade products we use.
