OUR POLICY
We know things come up but want to make sure we give those on the wait list a chance to participate too. When you take a spot on the schedule, and fail to cancel, you are not allowing others to get in and our instructors lose money. We ask for your help in adhering to our policy. It is designed to allow as many clients as possible enjoy our classes. Cancellations can be made online by going to https://clients.mindbodyonline.com/LoginLaunch?studioid=155674 or by calling 804-355-3700.
Late Cancel & No Show Policy
Classes must be canceled at least 2 hours prior to the class or by 10 pm the night before our first morning classes in order to avoid a cancellation fee.
Late cancellations made less than 2 hours WILL be charged a $10 late cancellation fee.
No-shows will be charged the current cost of a drop-in fee or the loss of a drop-in class credit from a class package.
If you are the only person signed into a class and no show, you will be charged a no-show fee. No exceptions.
Large groups that sign in together and take up a full class will need to cancel 24 hours in advance or lose the drop-in payment, since we cannot fill the entire class in such short notice. (It is strongly recommended and more courteous to others, that you schedule a private party instead of take up all the regular class time spots.)
Late Arrival Policy
It is important that you arrive at least 5 minutes before the class starts in order to be measured in your hammock if taking an Aerial hammock class or 15 minutes before taking a Bungee fitness class to get assistance putting on your harness and picking out your correct bungee. If you are not there at the time for class to begin, you may lose your spot to someone else who has dropped in to sign up for a class. However, if you arrive late to an Aerial Hammock class, we ask that you come in quietly so to not to disturb others, and wait until the instructor tells you to join in the class. If it is your first time to ANY class, we ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes early to allow time to park, meet the instructor and fill out our waiver and new client form.
If you arrive late for Bungee class, because of the nature of the class, you will not be allowed in class. No refunds for late arrivals.
Dress Policy
Choose active-wear designed for movement and comfort. For Aerial classes, in particular, wear a shirt with sleeves to prevent any discomfort under the arms and help keep the hammocks clean. For Lyra, it is recommended to wear long legging that covers the backs of the knees and shirts with long sleeves. No tank tops in Aerial classes, please! If you arrive wearing a tank top, you will be asked to put on another shirt.
No Jewelry. Help us to preserve our Aerial Hammocks. Please remove all jewelry, watches, hair clips or anything that will snag the cloth hammocks. No clothing with zippers is allowed.
