I work in a pilates studio and we pay special attention to the air conditioning, but the cooling system is a bit weird because several different companies diagnosed it, one supplier installed the cooling system in the back, while another did the cooling system in the front, and that a one has a few small complications, however we try to work around it, however, we also have several different air purification systems throughout the studio to help cleanse the air, however pilates is an exercise that increases the mind-body connection and requires a lot of breathwork, and deep breathing requires clean air.
We also see a lot of older customers whose health may be immunocompromised, so having those air purification systems around the studio is important to them and a nice touch for potential clients to see, however I always replace the air filters in the purifiers every few weeks, and I replace the coverings for them about once a week when they begin to get dusty. Ever since the pandemic, respiratory care has been important for us, so we are doing the best we can to ensure the health and safety for all of our clients. Even with all we do, we know that some people will still get sick. That’s something we simply cannot help prevent. I just hope that we offer an environment that helps people feel safe and well. It’s important to have a safe place that is not only physically healthy, but a place where you can genuinely connect with others and have that social interaction we all desperately need.
