Frequently Asked Questions/Getting Started
I am new to the studio, how do I begin?
We recommend you arrive 10-15 minutes early to fill out any necessary paperwork and/or change into your attire for your practice. You can also fill out the registration form found here to save some time. We accept cash and check only and you will need to have a valid photo ID to sign up.
Can I stop by and check out the studio before I sign up?
Yes, in general, the studio opens approximately 10 minutes before every class.
Where are you located?
We are located at 3335 Seldon Court in Fremont. If heading North on Osgood Rd, Seldon Court is on the left and is flanked by Jonce Thomas Industrial Park sign on the left and a large Jehovah’s Witness Assembly Hall on the right. Once you turn on to Seldon, turn right on the third driveway. We are at the end of the building.
Where should I park?
Plenty of parking in front of the studio or on the street.
What types of payment do you accept?
We accept payment by CASH, CHECK or ZELLE ONLY. Unfortunately, we no longer accept credit or debit cards.
How do I prepare for the classes?
-Wear comfortable, fitted stretchy clothing (no bulky, loose-fitted items).
-Please refrain from using fragrances in the studio as some clients may suffer from environmental allergies.
-Bring a towel, water, and yoga mat.
-Wait 3 to 4 hours after a large meal and 1 to 2 hours after a light snack before attending a class or training session.
-Arrive at least 10 minutes before the start of class to fill out some paperwork, relax and get settled.
-No shoes in the studio, please leave them in the cubbies in the lobby. There are additional cubbies to store your wallet/purse/keys in the main room.
-Turn off all cell phones.
What if I don’t have a yoga and/or pilates mat?
We encourage you to bring your own mat. However, if you do not have one or forget one, mats are available for a rental rate of $1. All other props are available for use at the studio.
How long will I have to do the workout before I see results?
The average person, attending class 2-3 times a week, will notice results in 2-3 months. Naturally, results may vary depending on each individual (i.e. the number of classes a person takes each week, whether they are private or group classes, whether they participate in other physical activities, whether they have any existing injuries, etc.)
I have a bad back (knee, neck, etc), will I be able to do the exercises?
It is recommended that you consult your physician before starting any fitness routine and know what is contraindicated for your condition. Inform the instructor of any serious health conditions such as neck, back or joint injuries, heart disease, high blood pressure, recent surgery, pregnancy, etc before class starts. Our trained instructors will modify the exercises to safely accommodate your limitations while challenging you within your range.
How can I find out who is teaching a class or if the studio is open on a holiday?
Please visit our website and click “schedule”. The instructors are listed by each class and any class cancellations are also noted on the schedule.
What is the pricing after the introductory special of $50 for unlimited classes for 2 weeks?
It depends on how often you attend classes and which classes/services interest you. If you plan to come 3 or more times a week, the unlimited package for a month is $145. If you plan to come to 2 or fewer classes a week, the best package is 10 classes for $175 ($17.50 each, one year expiration date). There is a discount for couples and students. If you are interested in reformer classes, there are packages for reformer only and some with classes too. For a complete list of our pricing, click here.
What is your cancellation policy for reformer classes or private sessions?
This is up to the discretion of the instructor and is something that should be discussed during your first meeting. If you need to cancel a class or private session, please call the studio or let the instructor know with as much notice as possible.
