Dear DTSC Family,
Its Tuesday, 3/17/20 and time for our COVID-19 Coronavirus Phase III update. Regretfully, I am informing you that now the time we tirelessly worked to avoid has come.
We fought as long as we could, by gradually making changes; reducing capacity, bumping up our cleaning and safety protocols among many other modifications to our training and facility as we know it.
Sadly, I have to share with you all that
effective Wednesday 3/18/20, Downtown Strength and Conditioning will cease ALL operations until further notice.
Although this is not easy, this is not only the socially responsible course of action, but it is now mandated by our elected officials. Many small businesses like ours will be feeling the strain during this time so we urge you to continue to support us and the many small businesses in our community. We look forward to seeing this through together.
I want to take this opportunity to personally thank you all again for the outpouring of support daily as the situation with the COVID-19 Coronavirus has escalated.
In times like these we have shown solidarity among our box family that makes me proud to be here with you all and reminds me that opening our gym only 17 short months ago was the best decision I could've made. It is time to recognize our duty to the community that keeps this gym full daily, this is more than just running a business safely. This is about protecting you, our loyal members, our families, friends and loved ones so we can return to business as usual as soon as possible. Life is more valuable that your undying need to do thrusters and box jumps.
With that being said I would like to share the details of
Phase III of our Box Continuity plan:
WHAT DO WE DO NOW?
We have always been committed to making our members and community better equally. Beginning tonight the
DTSC YouTube channel
will be active with content to share with everyone both near and far. This channel will be public and we will release the first of a multi-part series of workouts as part of our online library. We are also pleased to offer yoga via
Red Cheetah Yoga's YouTube channel
. These will be accessible via the links above and our Instagram LinkTree in bio.
We plan to honor our commitment of keeping you fit by switching to these virtual workouts that can be performed anywhere anytime at your leisure. We will continue to add content until we have confirmation that reopening our doors and working out together is safe for everyone.
Let's do our best together to remain, healthy, calm, positive and of course physically fit even with these limitations. The entire DTSCMIA team is here for you and we urge you to reach out with any questions or concerns in the interim. Above all else, remember to
#NEVERGIVEUP
Thank you all for being part of our DTSCMIA family, we are grateful for your ongoing support and look forward to being back to our routine here at the box soon. We will continue to keep you all updated via email and social media in the coming days.
Best Regards Always,
Jessica and the #DTSCMIA team
