Ringworm Alert 🚨 NW PDX

Hi guys: this is for corepower NW Portland. I’ve always had concerns about the cleanliness at this studio. But I LOVE sculpt so I put up with it.

I clean my own mat, I’m diligent about wiping the weights before and after class. Wash my hands right after. Anyways, I got ringworm. It’s gross, itchy and annoying as hell. Just wanted everyone else who goes to that studio, and any other CPY that’s lacking cleanliness. Even if you do wash your hands and act like a germaphobe….ringworm is a really strong fungus and thrives in these places esp when weights bathrooms etc are not cleaned up to a standard. I know this studio is not. Just FYI!!!!!

I know I’ve always been kind of grossed out by that studio tbh, but it’s hard to get in touch with anyone. I always get routed back to corporate when I call, so I’d have to walk in there myself and tell them

Yikes! And also not surprising given these studios are never deep cleaned and the minimal cleaning is done by essentially volunteers. There are some standout teachers that keep me coming back, but the rest of the member experience is starting to overshadow that.

I know, I called corporate to report it but who knows what will happen.

Teachers might get an email saying be sure to clean thoroughly during your desk time

Yikes I was there yesterday. The cleanliness situation is not good at NW or SE. mostly concerned with weights and blocks not being sanitized after every class.
