The shape of our aikido community has changed considerably since lockdown in 2020. The coaching team has shrunk, has less availability and flexibility to run classes. We gauge, we won't be able to reopen a Junior class in the medium term.
Please recognise that everyone must accept a level of responsibility towards others and themselves.
Aikidoka will have differing risk factors, health and personal circumstances. It is your decision how you participate in any session.
Before coming to a class you should self-assess for symptoms of Coronavirus (COVID-19) this list was expanded in March 2022:
If you have one or more of these symptoms you should not attend class, even if your symptoms are mild. You should follow NHS guidance on "When to self-isolate and what to do"
If you isolate for Covid advice suggests 5 days provided you are better – however there is a 30% risk you are still infectious. Before returning to train please err on the side of caution and stay away from the dojo for at least 7 to 10 days and longer if you still feel under the weather.
** If you feel generally unwell please don't come to class **
