73. Deputy Jennifer Whitmore asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media if she will provide clarity regarding yoga studies and the current guidelines for this sector under level 3 Covid-19 restrictions and the way in which they can operate in the course of the current pandemic; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraUnder Level 3 of the Government’s Resilience and Recovery 2020-2021: Plan for Living with Covid-19, sports training is permitted, in non-contact groups of up to 15 outdoors. Only individual sports and fitness training is permitted indoors. No exercise or dance classes are permitted indoors, a position which I understand applies to yoga classes.
Guidance material concerning the sports sector is available on Sport Ireland's website, which may be of interest and relevance to those wishing to undertake individual yoga and other forms of exercise indoors or in group format outdoors.
