What precautions are being taken to ensure safety in the Dojo?

We have implemented a wide array of health and safety measures to help protect everyone in the Dojo. These steps include Covid vaccination of all adults, teens, and children, increased airflow and ventilation, updated mat-cleaning protocols, and other cleaning and disinfecting procedures in alignment with the most recent CDC information and CDPH guidance.

In our current programs we are limiting enrollment, and we restrict access to the Dojo building.

We continue to review and revise our policies as the pandemic evolves, and as more information and guidance emerge from health agencies and authorities.
