Group Fitness Classes - Start & End Times | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Group Fitness Classes - Start & End Times Effective Tuesday, May 21: All group fitness classes will be starting at the designated published time. Any participant who arrives after the start of the class will not be allowed to participate. The first 5 minutes of all group fitness classes will now be dedicated as set-up time, allowing those participants waiting to get into a class, the time to set up safely and without distracting the other participants. The music and warm-up will start promptly at the 5-minute mark. For example: The Monday Boomer ABC’s class currently runs from 10:30 a.m. to 11:25 a.m. The schedule will be updated to reflect one hour for the class, 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The 10:30 a.m. to 10:35 a.m. time is dedicated to setting up equipment, and the class will commence at 10:35 a.m. (music starts, instructors running the warm-up). Customer Service (C.S.R.) staff will follow the schedule as published and once a registered participant is late, then they will be denied entry and those drop-in participants will be allowed entry so as long as space is available, and they will have sufficient time to set-up the fitness equipment prior to the start of the music and warm-up. In addition, effective Tuesday, May 21, members who have pre-registered for a group fitness class will now be able to pick up their admission ticket one (1) hour prior to the start of the class. Members who have not pre-registered and drop-in participants will still be required to line up for classes and will be allowed entry if space is available. |
