COVID-19 GUIDELINES AND EXPECTATIONS
Based on consultations with the state health department and CDC guidelines, and in accordance with the Governor’s stay at home order, we will be reopened Sunday, June 14.
I am committed to the safety and health of the Karasi community, as each and every person is my top priority. I am working diligently so that you may have great confidence, and peace of mind that you are returning to the safest environment possible. As we open, I will continue to monitor the Covid-19 numbers, as we enter into a carefully planned and phased approach with new cleaning and safety protocols to ensure a place you can practice with confidence.
Thank you for your continued support and patience as we take this next step together to get back upon our mats at Karasi Fitness.
To keep the Karasi community healthy and safe we will be taking extra precautions, in compliance with requirements and recommendations of the CDC and health department.
