NEWTOWN, PA – Governor Wolf has publicly recommended the closure of all gyms in Bucks County for the next two weeks due to the coronavirus. We have made the decision to comply with these recommendations and will close for the suggested 2 weeks.
Since this closure was not mandated but recommended, we struggled with our social and civic responsibility. Do we remain open to serve our community when they need us most, or do we err on the side of extreme caution?
Even though we passionately believe that exercise and good nutrition offer the best protection against this virus and a great many illnesses, both chronic and acute, we are taking this measure to insure that no stone is left unturned in this critical situation.
We plan to utilize the time we are closed well by continuing to work making improvements and upgrades to the club.
Beginning early next week, we will make available online streams of selected NAC group exercise classes. This innovative streaming project is one that we have been working on for over a year and are expediting this process considering these circumstances. Our dedicated instructors and trainers are happy to teach classes in an empty room so that you have an opportunity to remain involved.
We will be keeping you updated on how to access these opportunities through our social media channels, email communications and our website.
Please be well, take all precautions for yourself and your families and know that we are here for you no matter what the situation. We are a NAC family and will remain vigilant together.
