PARKING

We validate parking for the Embarcadero Center garages. Please bring your parking ticket to the front desk before or after class to be validated. With validation, parking is free before 8am, free after 5pm and $4 each hour for the first three 3 hours between 8am and 5pm (normally $11 a hour). Saturdays are free for 4 hours with validation.

RESERVATION POLICY

You may reserve online up to a week in advance. In order to reserve online, a positive account is required (note, classes can be purchased online). If you try to sign-up for a class and are put on the waitlist, you will be notified via email if you are put into the class. You may call the studio at any time prior to the start of class to check your waitlist status if you do not have automatic email access.

WAITLIST INFORMATION

Classes fill up quickly, but spaces open up regularly due to peoples' unpredictable schedules. We now allow 15 people on the waitlist, so if the class you wish to attend is full you may add yourself to the waitlist. As soon as a spot opens up in class, the first person on the waitlist will be automatically bumped into class and an email notification will be sent out.

If you get bumped into class within (1 hour) of class, in addition to receiving an email notification, we will attempt to call you as well. If possible, please confirm online or by calling us (415.956.0446) to let us know whether or not you will be able to attend; if you are unsure if you are off the waitlist, please give us a call.

Here is how you can confirm your spot online...

1. Log into your account
2. Click on My Info
3. Click on My Schedule
4. My Schedule will list all the classes you are currently in as well as classes that you have been added to from the waitlist
5. Click on "Class Level" (ie, Mixed, Level II) for the class that you can confirm
6. In the Notes box within Visit Details, you can write "Confirmed". Then click Update.
7. This will notify us that you are coming to class and we will mark you as confirmed

Reminder. Being bumped off the waitlist into class means you are IN CLASS and therefore responsible for confirming of cancelling your spot. If you get into class from the waitlist; do not show up for class and have not canceled your reservation 10 minutes before class, your spot may be given away and you will be charged for class. If you get into class from the waitlist and are already scheduled for another class, you will need to cancel your reservation for your other class on line or by calling us; if you do not cancel, you will be charged for class.

CANCELLATION POLICY

For weekday classes, you may cancel online or by phone up to 10 minutes before the start of class. If you do not cancel, you will be charged for class (note, clients with unlimited packages will lose 1 day for each no-show).

Please note Saturday classes have a different policy. You may cancel online or by phone up until 6:00pm the Friday before class to avoid penalty.

ATTIRE

Exercise pants that cover the knees (or compression/bike shorts under above-knee shorts); tank top or t-shirt, etc. and socks.

FACILITY

We offer locker room facilities with showers for men and women. Towels, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and hairdryers are provided.
