Allow Exercise Classes to take place in all tiers if gyms can be open

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Allow gyms and exercise classes to remain open in all Tier categories.
Gyms can remain open but classes cannot. Gyms have put in stringent measures to ensure people do not mix in classes and stand on an allocated spot. No equipment needs to be touched. People wear masks until reaching a spot and stay on it.
