In accordance with current SA Health directive, Bio Fit has developed the following COVID-19 Policy*. Thankfully we have a large facility which accommodates us continuing to operate as close to "normal" as possible. Ultimately what determines our ability to deliver a safe training environment is your corporation and adherence to this policy.
The health and wellbeing of our members, and their families and loved ones is our primary concern and as such we will be monitoring member activity and will take the necessary steps should we see the policy is not working. Thank you as always for your understanding.
This policy has been interpreted from;
*In addition to this policy we advise that you obtain your own advice from the SA COVID-19 Information Line (1800 253 787), any advice from SA Health overrides this policy.
This policy is subject to change as and when new information is available.
Venue area capacities are as outlined below. These are in line with the 1:7 requirements announced on 27 Dec 2021. Note class capacities still remain as per Mind Body Booking system to maintain a Bio Fit enforced minimum coaching requirement of 1:20.

- Assessing and managing the risk: COVID exposures in general businesses and venues
- Bio Fit Health Clubs Pty Ltd: COVID-Safe Plan - 28 December 2021 - 11799533.pdf. This plan has been overruled in relation to person/sqm requirements but all other policies stand. Available upon request.
- Advice from SA Covid-19 Information Line on 25 December 2021.

BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER A CLASS
IN THE EVENT OF BEING NOTIFIED YOU ARE COVID-19 POSITIVE (AS ADVISED BY SA HEALTH)
IN THE EVENT OF A POSITIVE COVID-19 CASE ATTENDING THE PREMISES (BIO FIT).
IN THE EVENT OF A POSITIVE COVID-19 CASE ATTENDING THE PREMISES (KIDS SPACE).
Below outlines our interpretation of the Matrix:
- All Strength Class attendees, 1:1 coaching clients and Open Gym attendees to enter through the main doors.
- All Conditioning Class attendees to enter through the single glass door closest to the Conditioning room.
- Maintain social distancing and stay 1.5m away from others at all times.
- Program is being reviewed to maintain appropriate social distancing, but please also remember to consciously keep 1.5m between yourself and others, this unfortunately means; no hugging, high fiving, standing close to talk or warm up....or basically anything that is normal human behaviour - sorry guys!
- Masks must be worn on entry and exit and not removed until in the class or 1:1 coaching session. Masks are to be put back on immediately after a class, especially if you are chatting to other members or coaches.
- Check in using QR code or forms provided upon entry.
- All equipment touch points are to be sanitised after every class.
- Staff to wear masks at all times, except in demos where significant social distancing is maintained.
- All subcontracting coaches and their clients must adhere to this policy.
- DO NOT attend Bio Fit if you feel unwell, or if you are identified (by SA Health or by a Positive Case) that you are a Close Contact of a COVID-19 case.
IN THE EVENT OF BEING NOTIFIED YOU ARE COVID-19 POSITIVE (AS ADVISED BY SA HEALTH)
- If you are notified by SA Heath that you are COVID-19 positive, then please notify Bio Fit as soon as possible via email hello@bio-fit.com.au with the class you attended and any other information you deem to be relevant. Unless you give permission, your identity won’t be revealed. Though as we have said, there is nothing shameful about getting sick!
- If you have any concerns about whether you followed this policy during a class (with regards to the 1.5m rules) we can look at footage and determine Close Contacts should it be required. But that shouldn't be necessary if we all do the right thing.
- Please follow all test and isolate requirements for your classification.
IN THE EVENT OF A POSITIVE COVID-19 CASE ATTENDING THE PREMISES (BIO FIT).
- Bio Fit will notify of any classes/coaching sessions with a COVID-19 positive case on this webpage. A positive case is considered contagious 2 days prior to becoming symptomatic as per SA Health advice on 5.1.22. Please check this page frequently. This is not a SA Health requirement and is purely a choice of Bio Fit to inform as much as we can.
- Class attendees/clients who were in a class with a positive case will be deemed Low Risk Casual Contact (if vaccinated) or Casual Contact (if unvaccinated).
- This is due to all Bio Fit spaces being 100-300 metres squared, and class times >15 minutes (45 minute class times), and SA Health having advised that gym activity IS NOT classified as “aerosol behaviour”.
- Please follow all test and isolate requirements for relevant classification.
IN THE EVENT OF A POSITIVE COVID-19 CASE ATTENDING THE PREMISES (KIDS SPACE).
- We are yet to seek clarification of Kids Space classifications and requirements.
