Re-Open Martial Arts Schools (we're not gyms) more like a school, which didn't close...

The issue

One the things that has been a bit difficult is lumping a martial arts school in with gyms. We can social distance, we can have people using their own equipment or no equipment. We can have tracing and usually do with members signing in on their own app. We usually have big open spaces, with students not here much longer than an hour. We can drop and go with parents. We do have hygiene stations.  

Primary and secondary schools have not closed and children are there for 6 hrs + a day..  We are essential for mind and body. We help parents grow their children. We help teens and adults to cope with many things. 

It makes no sense how some industry stayed open and others closed. Please help us help the community and the economy sooner. It is a slow growing industry. 

We have got this.  Health and safety is paramount in our Industry. help us, help Australia
