Mask Mandate Policy (Updated 1/31/22)

COVID cases in Boulder County have been trending down at a significant rate since mid-January. We will be returning to a mask-optional policy at the studio with a few added guidelines. Please see below for details.

Koa Fit Trainers and Staff - Koa Fit Trainers will reflect the client’s choice. If a client wears a mask, so will the trainer. In addition, the client can also request the trainer to wear a mask even if the client does not wear one during the session. The additional guidelines below will also be followed.

Clients - Clients can be mask-optional. However, the additional guidelines below need to be followed.

Additional COVID Guidelines:

• A mask must be worn for at least 5 days (after last exposure) if you have been exposed to someone with COVID or who has had symptoms of COVID.

• A mask must be worn if you are waiting for results of a COVID test.

• If you have any symptoms of COVID or are not feeling well in general, please do not come to the studio.

• If you have been in large group settings, such as travel, concerts, etc, we ask that you wear a mask for at least 5 days after the last exposure.

• Please be considerate of the other sessions in the studio. If a client is wearing a mask, please keep at least 6 feet of distance between you and them or wear a mask when you are in close contact (such as entering of leaving the studio).

• Be kind and courteous to people.

Please Note - Proof of Vaccination is still required for entry to the studio. For more information, please visit our Vaccine Verification Page.

Koa Fit has been approved as a Vaccine Verified Facility through Boulder County. This allows our clients to be mask optional while working out in the studio. This program requires every person who enters the studio to show proof of vaccination.

Koa Fit's staff is 100% vaccinated. In order for us to be compliant, we will need every client to bring proof (see below) of vaccination or email it to admin@koafitusa.com. We will NOT be collecting copies of vaccination cards at this time and any emailed copies will be destroyed.

The following forms of proof will be accepted:

●  COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card (issued by the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control & Prevention or WHO Yellow Card) which includes name of person vaccinated, type of vaccine provided, and date last dose administered); OR

●  A photo of a Vaccination Record Card as a separate document; OR

●  A photo of the individual’s Vaccination Record Card stored on a phone or electronic device; OR

●  Documentation of COVID-19 vaccination from a health care provider; OR

●  Digital record accessed through the myColorado application.

Boulder County moved into Level Clear on May 16. 2021. We are ecstatic to see progress in the re-opening of our city. To do our part to help ensure a successful re-opening, we are asking that you adhere to the following guidelines when coming into the studio. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we navigate this process.

• At any time, you can request that your trainer wear a mask.

• For those who have been vaccinated, masks are optional.

• For those who have not been vaccinated, we ask that you wear a mask while indoors.

From Lexi Nolen, Executive Director of Boulder County Health: “We remain concerned about the unnecessary cases, hospitalizations and deaths that may result from the changing guidelines, and Boulder County Public Health continues to recommend the use of masks, social distancing and other preventive measures for the unvaccinated, especially indoors.”

This page will be updated regularly with any information about re-opening.
