Plan for the Utah County Mask Mandate

admin2020-09-25T09:31:13-06:00Categories: Omega News, Springville|

Dear Omega Family: Yesterday the Utah County Health Department issued a mask mandate for all of Utah County. As I read the mandate there is a mask exemption that says "that if you are participating in a physical and/or strenuous activity, then you do not need to wear a mask while participating in this activity." (See Utah County Public Health Order Section 3.9) Today, I personally called the Utah County Health Department and received verbal confirmation from the Director Tyler Plewe that Omega Martial Arts will fall under the physical exemption rule. This verbal confirmation of exemption was received on [...]

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 schedule looks similar to what you are used to at Omega, but the classes will remain between 10-30 people (including all instructors), with most classes at 15 or fewer. The new Springville summer schedule is posted HERE. If you or someone [...]

Thank you for your continued support and flexibility during this pandemic! We are happy that the state of Utah is moving forward and is now at the "Moderate Risk" stage. We will be working safely and responsibly to re-introduce small, in-person classes at the studio. In order to keep small classes, the class length will have to remain shorter, approx. 30min in-person, so we can keep a good rotation. Starting Monday, May 11th, Omega Springville will begin offering small classes in the studio and keeping to the state-wide guidelines of gatherings of 20 people or less. More information is to [...]

Dear Students, Parents, and Tai Chi Enthusiasts in Utah County, We are happy to announce the addition of Tai Chi/ Qigong to our Springville studio!

These practices can [...]
