Coronvirus Updates and FAQ's

Here we will be posting updates on our activities, events, classes etc. as we react in line with union advice and government guidlines. Please check back regulalry. 

Classes 

1. Classes are will be returning 1st September 2020, please ensure you have bought or renewed your membership before purchasing/attending classes. Once purchased a membership, you will be sent a link for a Health Questionnaire and a document covering the rules following the coronavirus guidelines, please sign both before attending a class.

2. Eve has the stutio set up following Government Guidelines to ensure the Health and Safety of all students and instructors are protected. This means there will be a maximum of 5 students per class (1 per pole) for the foreseeable and classes will be returning at £5 this September. (half price of a class at Butterfly) 

3. There will be a 15 minute break between classes to clean down the studio and poles. Please wait outside the studio until the instructor calls you in, you may want to wear a mask if waiting in the corridor. Hand sanitiser will be available. 

4. Where possible please bring your own pole cloth and grip aids, each pole will have their own box for cleaning the poles, however personal items must be brought by the student where possible. Please keep bags and outerwear to a minimum in the studio - only bring what you need and ideally have your pole wear on underneath your clothes. 

5. Please maintain social distance guidelines when waiting outside the studio or when inside the studio. Due to social distancing the instructors are unable to spot, so please pole safely and only carry out moves you feel you are strong and able to do.

Welcome Week

1. Welcome Weeks this year are between Monday 21st September and Friday 2nd October 2020.  

2. Due to coronavirus, there will be no Socieites Fair held at the Hubs in 2020. In place of the Socieites Fair, we will be running a Virtual Give it a Go Session. This will be ran via a Zoom call where you will have a chance to Meet the Committee, see the studio, get an idea of what you might learn in your first class and be provided with information on Taster classes and how to get your Membership. Watch this space information on how and when this will take place. 

Varsity/Events 

1. As we know the Varsity Competition had been cancelled and this will not be rescheduled. Any other events will be pencilled in and confirmed as and when we can. 

2. In place of Varsity, we will be holding a Virtual Varsity Showcase where the performers will upload their recorded finished routines. Please follow the Hallam Union Pole Facebook page to look out for ther Event details. 

Socials 

1. Our Social Secretary's are busy finding sponsorship packages with bars anbd clubs in Sheffield. As you can imagine, it is hard at the moment to plan too far in advance how and where we will be able to run our socials. We are keeping up with Govenment Guidelines and will keep you updated. 

2. However, we are planning our first social to be Wednesday 23rd September to welcome freshers and say welcome back to the rest. Watch this space, and the Facebook page, for more info on where and what the social will be!
