Currently we are working in phases to re-open to the community. When we reopen it will be in phases to meet the safety of the community and staff.
The Wellness department was fortunate to assist the FDIHB service area, and you!, throughout the duration of our COVID response. This has kept us busy and we are preparing a phased approach to reopening (much like how we initially opened the Wellness Center, several years ago). This will ensure we are able to provide the high quality, safe and effective services you have all come to expect from us. We have received many comments and suggestions from all of our patrons since we have opened, and we are working on incorporating those things into our reopening. Beginning April 26th, we will begin our first phase of reopening, which includes multiple, daily, virtual Group Fitness and Education sessions.
Live classes will not be recorded. However, there will be pre-recorded videos that will be offered on the FDIHB Nihi Dine’e Ba Wellness Center website for participants who are not able to attend live classes.
Other participants will be able to see you during class, if your camera is turned on but it is not required. We do HIGHLY recommend all participants to have their cameras on for safety monitoring, because each exercise class will have a behind-the-scenes trainer, who is available in the chat to answer questions, as well as to inform the instructor of any changes in demonstration or in the event of an emergency. Every participant does have the capability to use a microphone, however, during class, each participant’s microphone will be muted to prevent background interruption (participants can unmute if emergent). Therefore the ideal set-up, to have the safest, most enjoyable, and tailored class, would be to have a camera on (pointed towards yourself), microphone muted, and easy access to their keyboard to ask any questions.
