Who are these classes for?

What should I wear?

• Always have a long-sleeved shirt option for days you may practice moves that can cause bruising on the upper body.

• No jewelry, zippers, rhinestones, or sharp nails

What should I expect?

• You’ll feel proud and exhilarated as you learn new skills!

What is your cancellation policy?

We understand life happens, but because our classes often have waitlists and limited equipment, we require advance notice for cancellations:

• Cancel at least 3 hours before class.

If you cancel late or do not show up:

• A $30 late cancellation fee applies.

• A $30 no-show fee applies.

This policy ensures that other members have the opportunity to join and that our classes run smoothly. Thank you for respecting this rule!

What if I am late to class?

For safety reasons, late entry is at the instructor’s discretion. Doors may be locked once class begins, and late arrivals may not be permitted to participate.

Is the studio clean and sanitary?

Yes! Poles and hammocks are disinfected after every use. The studio is cleaned daily and professionally each week. We take hygiene seriously.

Will I fall on my head?

No worries! Intro classes focus on building strength and confidence. No advanced tricks or inversions until you’re ready.
