​
Classes cancelation policy
a. If a Class is fully booked, you can add yourself to the online ‘waitlist’. Once you are on the ‘waitlist’, as places come up in a Class, you will be automatically moved from the ‘waitlist’ to a reserved space in the Class in turn by reference to your position on the waitlist. At this point normal booking terms apply.
b. ‘Waitlist’ places are automatically moved into a Class up to 1 hour before the start of a Class but not after that time, so if you are on a ‘waitlist’ you should be prepared to cancel your place on the online ‘waitlist’ anytime up to 1 hour before the start of a Class if you do not want to be added into the Class.
c. 24 hours before the start of a Class, once cancellations have been made, some spaces may become available for Members to book online direct and not onto the ‘waitlist’ so it is a good time to check in and see if there are some pre-booked spaces free to reserve. These will be handed out on a first come first serve basis and we cannot guarantee a place.
d. If a Class is booked online you must sign in at reception via the scanner with the allocated barcode tag or our personalised app at the Centre at least 5 minutes before the Class start time. Failure to do this may be treated as a ‘no show’ and your space may be given to someone else.
e. In the case of a ‘no show’, payment will still be taken for the Class.
f. If you have 2 ‘no shows’ or ‘late cancels’ in any two week period, we may suspend your booking rights for one month. For "reformer pilates” late fees of £5 per each cancelled classes will be applied due to high demand and low capacity for these classes.
If you constantly cancel classes and do not communicate with us about reasons for cancelations we reserve the right to remove you from all future Classes you may have booked into and give your place to our "stand by list” clients.
g. We will use all reasonable endeavours to start each Class at the scheduled start time but the start may be delayed by the overrun of an earlier Class or by other circumstances. If the delay to the start is at least 20 minutes you may cancel the Class and we will refund your fee or, if the Class was booked as part of a package, allow you to rebook the Class.
h. Anyone arriving late will not be admitted into a Class.
Details of Class times at the Centre may vary from time to time including cancellations of individual Classes. Class times will be published by us and will be available on the mobile app and Website
