For a Safer & Sustainable Studio
For a Safer & Sustainable Studio
Please only attend our studios if you feel well. If you feel unwell for any reason, then please stay at home, follow appropriate guidance, and we’ll see you when you feel well again.
The studio itself will be thoroughly cleaned & disinfected between classes – all classes are scheduled allowing time to clean and prepare the studio for the next session. This will also minimise contact between departing & arriving clients. It may be necessary at times to queue outside the studio before entering.
We have installed automatic hand sanitisers around the studios
Screens have been placed at reception
Markings on the floor indicate where your mat should be placed
Windows at Lee will be open. Doors at Catford will be open. Hot studio uses infrared heating (no hot air distribution) + fresh air vent for air exchange
Toilets & Changing Rooms will be open. Please keep a social distance and sanitise your locker key with the provided sprays
Wearing masks when at the studio is compulsory when moving around the studio whilst away from your mat, which can then be placed on your mat during practice
Showers at Catford will be open but we ask you to use only if absolutely necessary, the showers will be disinfect after each class but please also disinfect after use
Tea pots will not be in use currently, but you can purchase a herbal tea for 50p (which we will add to a charity pot) if you bring your reusable cup – we will look at how this works out over the coming weeks
We will have a selection of drinks available in our fridges for purchase (cans of water and coconut water etc.)
Use the water fountain for refills, but bring your own bottles

Music will be low so the teacher will not have to project their voice
Each mat is spaced with over a meter distance – from each side of the mat including front and back

Due to limited space in the studios, we ask that if you make a booking for a class, that you stick to it. This allows for as many students as possible to practice
Bookings will have to be made in advance. There will be no walk-ins allowed. This is to provide track and trace information if required
If you haven’t got an account with us already please create it before arriving to the studio, the reception staff won’t be able to help creating it for you at this time to reduce time spent at reception desk per client
Cancellations must be made 4 hours prior to the start of class. Late cancellations or no shows will result in a lost class pass or additional charge to members of £5 which will be automatically added to your account. We are really hoping to avoid all of this, but with limited mat spaces and people keen to practice we will have to be strict on cancellation policy and work together to avoid no showing for classes. Teachers are also reliant on student numbers attending for rate of pay
Please arrive on time for your class, we won’t be able to admit any late arrivals and they will be treated as late cancellation
At this time we would ask you for not arriving more than 15 minutes before the class start
To accommodate the changing times and to be able to provide you, our teachers and staff a safe space to practice there has been an adjustment to class prices.
unlimited memberships until end of September.
