WERE BACK!
We hope you have all been keeping safe and well, we are very excited to announce that we will shortly be reopening our doors again on Wednesday 2nd September 2020 as we begin phase 1 of our reopening plan. It has been a long time since we closed our doors on the 20th March 2020, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back to the Centre.
We have been overwhelmed by the support we have received from you all, and we are delighted to see that many of you have been remaining active whilst on lockdown.
Whilst we have been closed, we have been working hard making plans to ensure our Centre remains a safe environment for everyone when we reopen.
As we are sure you can imagine there are lots of new guidelines for us to follow, and we ask you to be supportive and patient with our coaches/instructors and staff as we begin our phased return, as this is a new challenging time for us all. Your safety and our staff’s safety are our top priority, we will do everything we can to make exercising fun and safe in such a strange situation.
If anyone has any concerns or questions, please feel free to email me
Many Thanks
Tracy Kirk & The MRC Team
