Guidelines

Waiting Lists

We understand that waiting lists can feel frustrating at times, but you must trust the process! Space almost always opens up — usually, not until the same day as class. Be prepared, and make sure you cancel your waiting list reservation at least 24 hours in advance if you can’t make it after all — otherwise, you could lose a class or be charged a fee. Make sure you have an active payment on your account for every wait list spot you reserve — if your spot is unpaid and room on the waiting list opens up, your place can’t be guaranteed until paid for.

Cancellation Policy

Capacity is limited during the pandemic. Make sure you pre-register early and be courteous

cancel your spot at least

24 HOURS IN ADVANCE

if you can’t make it, so someone else can come to class.

Short Notice Policy of 3 hrs.

Last-minute things come up.

For these times, we have a short notice policy of cancelling 3 hrs before class.

Penalty fees for late-cancels & no-shows

Late Cancellation: Canceling reservation less than 3 hrs before class

No Show: You do not show up to class.

Penalty Fee:

  • Members and Unlimited packages (including Intro Special): Charged a $10 penalty fee
  • Class card & drop-in students: 1 class will be used

We must give our late-cancel and no-show policy some teeth as some students have not respected them, which is unfair to our community and the studio.  For most of our community, the new penalty fee has no impact, as most of you cancel your reservations within 24 hrs. To not have any penalty fees….You can cancel your reservation up to 3 hours before class without penalty.

 

Notifications

TIP: Turn on your text alerts! This is the best way to confirm your spot, it’s automatic. If you answer the text, you do not need to respond to the email. We love hearing from you, but when you confirm by email, your reservation has to be updated manually. Text confirmations are instant and ensure that you won’t lose your spot.

Please note in these situations, we will do our best to help recover the mixed-up item but can not contact everyone present in class that day to do so. Typically we simply let our teachers and staff know to be on the lookout. We encourage students to use the footwear identification method provided at the studio to avoid this and mark your shoes, boots, sandals!
  • Any personal items that are found in the studio will be lovingly placed in our Lost & Found.
