Staying Safe from COVID-19
There are numerous ways Red Dragon Martial Arts is here to help you and your families train in karate and stay safe through this unprecedented time. Face masks are required in all classes per current Colorado State Order.
Programs:
~Small Group Classes and Private Lessons at Red Dragon: Students may attend small group classes at assigned days/times or come for private lessons. Class sizes range from 6-10 students and are always the same group of people. Karate classes are currently non-contact and taught with social distancing in mind at all times (including as students enter and leave). The entire facility is mopped and disinfected before and after every program. Karate is a great way to stay physically active and enjoy a little social interaction, all while following safety protocol for COVID-19.
~Online Karate: For those students who want to learn karate and stay physically active but also want to remain safe at home, try our online karate program. We offer online private lessons for individual instruction, plus multiple online karate classes every week. These high-energy, engaging classes are a lot of fun and lay a good foundation for your martial arts journey.
~Remote Learning at Red Dragon: Students who are participating in remote learning from their elementary school may do so at Red Dragon. Children may register for a full week for only $200. We have a certified teacher and a college student on-hand to help with content, and WiFi for students to use. Participating students will also engage in educational games, brain breaks, and physical fitness during their full day care. Remote Learning/Full Day care is limited to 10 students and are the same 10 students every week. Social distancing is maintained between workspaces and at lunch. And temperature checks and handwashing is frequent and mandatory.
Is this safe?
~We are limiting all class sizes to less than 10 students to prevent exposure to large groups.
~There is no public waiting area. Students line up 6 feet apart when entering and exiting the dojo.
~ Students are assigned areas of the mat 6 feet apart from each other. And we do not engage in any physical contact with anyone not in their family during classes and lessons.
~All hard surfaces, such as door handles, light switches, benches, etc. are disinfected hourly. All porous surfaces, such as the mats, pads, standing bags, etc. are disinfected before and after every program. We only use disinfectant certified to kill the coronavirus.
~We are asking all students who feel ill to stay home until fully recovered and met quarantine restrictions or have tested negative for COVID. You will be able to make up all missed classes when you return. And all students and instructors have their temperatures checked at the door when entering.
~Further, none of the Red Dragon staff will ever teach class or be in the building if ill and will follow the same quarantine proceedures.
