An Update Thank you for your calls and emails inquiring about our reopening date. We miss all of you and understand that you’re looking forward to coming back to the studio. I wanted to update you on my research during our hibernation. I’ve been communicating with circus schools across the US about what reopening may entail. We cannot eliminate the spread of COVID-19, we can only reduce the risk as much as possible. As a business owner who is very concerned about safety and liability, this reality makes me uncomfortable. I do not want to put anyone at risk. Gyms in San Antonio can reopen on May 18. However, we are not a typical gym. There are many circus specific issues that must be worked through. For instance, the TX Minimum Standard Health Protocols states, patrons must “wear gloves that fully cover from the wrist to the fingers while exercising.” This is not a safe or practical protocol for aerial work, but Aerial Horizon could be cited and fined if we violate this mandate. The items below are not comprehensive, but I wanted to give you an idea of the overwhelming situation we’re in. Each item opens its own can of worms as I sort through safety vs. liability vs. finances vs. practical applications specifically related to what we do: ➡️Risk management chart update ➡️Policy updates (PPE, spotting, injury care) ➡️Procedure updates ➡️Clear entry, exit, space between students, sanitizing stations ➡️Health survey ➡️Contact tracing ➡️Cleaning procedures ➡️Staff training w/ new procedures ➡️COVID-19 specific assumption of risk form ➡️Ventilation ➡️Record keeping ➡️Liability insurance ➡️Phased reopening plan ➡️Financial timelines w/ reduced income It will be many months before could we reopen. The safety of my staff and students has been and will always be my number one priority. I cannot in good conscience put anyone at risk as a result of coming to Aerial Horizon. If it’s possible to help, please message us to donate your remaining classes/studio credits to our emergency fund or donate directly through Venmo. Your generosity would help us greatly. I appreciate your continued patience and compassion during this challenging time. Stay safe, Julia Langenberg
