We put together a quick cheat sheet on class etiquette to help you and your fellow students get the most out of your time at Pilates Space Florida. Think of this as your Cliffs Notes version of our studio policies \u2013 don\u2019t worry, there won\u2019t be a pop quiz!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrive Early<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Do yourself, your fellow students, and your teacher a solid by showing up before class starts. Entering after a session has already started can be disruptive, and you risk losing your spot to a student on the waitlist, or worse, getting locked out. Arrive at least five minutes before class (15 minutes if it\u2019s your first visit) to allow yourself time to get situated before it\u2019s time to sweat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step away from the cell phone<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Unless you\u2019re expecting to go into labor, have a wife or BFF who might go into labor, or are a doctor waiting for a patient to go into labor, please leave your cell phone on silent and tucked away in your bag or cubby. Take a break from the \u201creal world\u201d and unplug for an hour, and keep the distractions out of sight so your fellow students can do the same.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suit up to move and sweat<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are no hard and fast rules for what to wear to a Pilates class. Form-fitting clothing will help your instructor cue in on your body alignment, but it\u2019s not a requirement. If you want to wear loose-fitting clothing, just make sure to do a quick check at home to make sure your clothes don\u2019t stretch or hang in ways that will give your classmates a show (guys, check your shorts, and ladies, let\u2019s not forget about the Lululemon see-through pants disaster of 2013!). Socks are a MUST in FL, so the Health Department doesn\u2019t slap us on the wrist with a $500 fine!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell your teacher if you have any injuries or special requests<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We want you to have the best class possible, so informing us ahead of time of any injuries will help our teachers tailor the workout to your needs, like offering modifications to make an exercise more accessible or alternative moves to help you avoid exacerbating any pre-existing conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Perfume please<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While everyone likes to smell good, less is more when you sweat, when you work out and sweat, your scent spreads throughout the entire room and some teacher and clients will experience strong physical reactions such as violent Migraines and hives. Solution: Wear deodorant, and skip the body spray.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean up your space and don\u2019t forget your stuff<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We pride ourselves on keeping a clean, neat, and odor-free space. Everyone appreciates a fresh and tidy studio, and you can help us keep things clean and orderly by taking a few minutes after class to sanitize your apparatus and props with the wipes provided at the end of each session and returning all equipment to its original location\/position so it\u2019s ready to go for the next client. Before you leave, don\u2019t forget to check the area around your Reformer and cubby to make sure you don\u2019t leave any of your valuables behind.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancel on time and do use the waitlist<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you need to cancel class or lesson, make sure to do so at least 24 hours in advance to avoid a late cancel charge. If you want to take a class but it\u2019s full, get on the waitlist. There\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ll get a spot!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frequently canceling standing appointments<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Frequent cancellations or no-shows may result in the cancellation of your standing appointment status. Your teacher has reserved these time slots for you and loses income if you keep canceling.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, you will not reach your workout and health goals, so sadly nobody wins here\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
