Low-Risk Phase Class Transition

admin2020-06-28T15:32:10-06:00Categories: Omega News, Springville|

It has been a few weeks since Governor Herbert modified the state to "Yellow" or Low-Risk Phase. During the Moderate-Risk Phase, we have been practicing in-studio with ultra-low class sizes and class times. Because our students and instructors have continued to use safe and responsible distancing and sanitizing, we are modifying classes again slightly beginning June 1.

The new Springville summer schedule is posted HERE. If you or someone [...]
