ClassBooking,No-show,andCancellationPolicy
BOOKING A CLASS
The best way to attend your preferred classes is to book using our online booking system. This includes booking via our website, the Mindbody website, or the CorePlus mobile app. Not only does this help us to ensure there is enough space in each class, but also means everyone has the best experience possible!
Instead, you may like to attend the studio before the scheduled start time of any class, in the hope to join at the last minute. This is subject to availability, and at the discretion of the Instructor.
Classes can be booked up to four-weeks in advance via our online booking system, so feel free to plan ahead, remembering that payment is made at the time of booking. To book into a class you can either make a payment at the time of booking, use an active membership, or a class pack.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Life can sometimes get in the way – we get it! If you have previously booked into a class and need to cancel your attendance, please withdraw from the class through the online booking system. To cancel your attendance without penalty, you should remove yourself from the class a minimum of 5 hours prior to the scheduled start time for the class. This is considered our Early Cancellation Window.
Unfortunately we cannot accept cancellations by phone, email or any other method other than by using the online booking system.
If you do need to cancel a class, the following fee structure will apply:
- Early cancel ($0): If you can no longer make it to your class and you cancel your booking a minimum of 5 hours before the scheduled start time, you won’t forfeit the session, or pay a fee. Hooray, and thank you!
- Late cancel ($5): Change of plans? If you cancel within 5 hours of the class start time, unfortunately you will forfeit the session, and be charged a cancellation fee of $5.
- No-show ($10): If you don’t cancel your class prior to the start time, and do not attend, you will forfeit your session and be charged a cancellation fee of $10. No shows are a no go, as we love to make room for others wherever possible!
WAITLIST POLICY
If the class you’d like to attend is fully booked, we recommend joining the waitlist. Due to our 5-hour early cancellation window, there are often changes to class attendance and places can become available. If a place opens up for you, you’ll receive a notification via email or text message. You will need to respond to this notification, either accepting or declining your place.
If your plans have changed and you can no longer attend, please notify us as quickly as possible so that your place can be offered to the next member on the waitlist.
If you don’t respond to the waitlist offer notification, or you accept the offer and then don’t attend the class, the no-show fee will apply. Unfortunately you will forfeit your session and be charged a cancellation fee of $10.
If you place yourself on the waitlist and then later realise you’re unable to attend, we encourage you to remove yourself from the waitlist. This avoids you being placed in the class if a spot becomes available. Sometimes places become available for waitlisted members with as little as 1 hour notice, so be sure to remove yourself from the waitlist if you can no longer make it to the class. Thank you in advance!
CLASSES START AND END ON TIME
CorePlus classes always start and end on time. In fact, that’s something we’re really proud of! We recommend arriving at the studio at least a few minutes before the start of class to set yourself up for a fun and fuss-free experience. The studio doors are locked whilst classes are running, and unfortunately there is no late entry.
While we know that life sometimes doesn’t go to plan, and you may be running late – for all of the reasons above, we’re not able to hold the class start time, or accept cancellations over the phone or on email. Thank you for your understanding!
