Phase 4 of Dalplex Reopening Plan

Posted by Dalplex on October 27, 2020 in Current News

We are pleased to announce the opening of the locker rooms and The Rock Court. We’ve also added two stretching spaces in the fitness hall upping our capacity to 38 during each appointment window and more fitness classes coming in November.

LOCKER ROOMS
Starting Wednesday, October 28, all locker rooms in Dalplex will be open.
Members will have access to a limited number of day use lockers.
Washrooms will be open in the locker rooms.
Showers and saunas remain closed.

Locker use
Members are welcome to use lockers marked with round day use lockers labels to store their gear but are not permitted to leave items over night. Our regular day use locker rules and regulations apply. Any locks left overnight on day use lockers will be removed along with the contents and held for 14 days before being donated to charity. Please consult the Dalplex Member Handbook for more details on our day use locker policies and procedures.

Hair dryers

The use of Dalplex or personal hair dryers is not permitted at this time.

STRETCHING SPACES IN THE FITNESS HALL
There are now two (2) additional spaces in the fitness hall for stretching and floor exercises, upping our capacity to 38 from 36 per appointment. Members are welcome to bring their own mats, rollers, stretching tubes, etc. These spaces have been added near the windows overlooking the driveway that leads to the parking lot.

The dumbbell stations previously in that space have been moved to the other side of the fitness hall in front of the mirrors near the stairs.

FIELDHOUSE ACCESS

Members with appointments in the fieldhouse will NOT be able to gain entry through the lower level locker rooms and must continue to use the revolving doors at the top of the ramp.

POOL ACCESS
Members should now access the pool through the lower level men’s and women’s locker rooms. The lower level universal locker room will also be open.

Entering from the lower level men’s & women’s locker rooms
Once you have changed, members should make their way down to the pool and wait at the bottom of the stairs until a lifeguard opens the gate.

Please proceed to the lifeguard office to check in for your appointment BEFORE proceeding to your lane.

Members are still permitted to bring their belongings down to the pool deck by using the bag drop area behind their respective lanes.

Masks MUST be worn while moving to and from the locker rooms and pool.

FITNESS CLASSES
Starting November 2, 2020, we will have a new group fitness class schedule that includes three additional classes.

Please check our full group fitness class schedule for a complete list of classes.

Increasing class sizes
We’ve installed a new camera system that will allow us to live stream our fitness classes to the television screens to the other studios. This provides us with the opportunity to increase the number of members able to attend an in-person class. Please note that the instructor will be teaching from Studio #2 and cannot guarantee spending any time in the other studios that will be open during the class. Members will be expected to ensure physical distancing during the class by staying in their defined workout area as marked on the floor. We expect to be able to start using this system very soon. Be sure to check out the Group Fitness section of our website with more details as they become available.

THE ROCK COURT

The Rock Court is now open for appointments and programming. Users must adhere to physical distancing guidelines and wear a mask while climbing.

Members and students wishing to use The Rock Court must book an appointment.

Current program offerings can be found here.

The rock wall in the fieldhouse remains closed.
