Coronavirus, citizens call the carabinieri because they believe the gym is open. Instructor: “ I was only recording the online lessons ”

PERGINE VALSUGANA. Barbara Tateo and her sister Elena have been running the fitness center since 2014 Explosion Dance & Fitness by Pergine Valsugana. Sharing the common destiny of sports realities, from Monday 26 October, following the last Dpcm, they are find yourself forced to close the doors of your business again. There was little to hesitate this time, so early Monday Barbara and Elena were already operational on the web, but someone doubted their compliance with the anti-contagion measures.

“We were prompt in moving online, also thanks to the experience we had between March and May, when we shared our lessons for free on the Perginese Facebook pages – comments Barbara, the gym administrator – with this new wave we are back on the web and take lessons from the rooms of our gym, to enter people’s homes directly “.

But on Friday evening, at the end of the last lesson, a phone call interrupted the normal routine: they were the Carabinieri of Borgo Valsugana that, finding the gym closed, they decided to call for a check. Someone he had sued the owners for non-compliance with the new rules.

“I thought it was a friend’s joke – says Barbara – then when I realized the seriousness of the situation I burst out laughing. We have been thorough in running our business since the start of the pandemic, we have activated all possible protocols and we have never spared ourselves to give people, often even for free, the opportunity to stay on the move ”.

And so also this time, every day, for 2 or 3 hours, from the gym located on the outskirts of the city center, sounds, music and voices warn of the presence of the two entrepreneurs inside. Someone had to think badly and called the police. “We were surprised by this report because we do everything in the light of the sun – Barbara reiterates – if only they had looked out our large windows, it would have been possible to spare us an unnecessary intervention for the police who in these dense days are already taken from more serious problems “.

Upon arrival on site, in fact, the Carabinieri could only confirm compliance with the provisions and leave the girls to do their work undisturbed, which they sarcastically thank on social networks.
