While many a cabaret artist, musician or restaurateur reached deep into the Corona funding pot, most entrepreneurs who were damaged by the measures received nothing. The lockdown period hit the corona-critical fitness studio operator Daniel Schreiber particularly hard. He not only lost a large part of his customers due to the illegal studio closures, but also received countless absurd penalties. To this day, however, he has not let that get him down.
An interview with Edith Brötzner
In the Corona period, one thing above all became clear: the difference between silent followers and upright people with civil courage. Daniel Schreiber is definitely not a follower. But on the contrary. As one of the few entrepreneurs in the fitness industry, he actively opposed the federal government’s measures and studio closures in the Corona crisis.
In contrast to many industry colleagues, the entrepreneur showed backbone and even refused to check his customers’ 2G credentials. Even a Cobra mission and horrendous penalties do not deter the entrepreneur from his path. Although he would have liked more support from his industry peers and customers, he would always act the same way he has done over the past three years. Report24 spoke to the committed entrepreneur about courage, mask bans, closed gyms and open brothels.
