Frequently Asked Questions: 

  • I signed up for a small group series but I need to miss one of the classes.  What are my options? 

​When completing your reservation for a small group class series You agree that the series of classes have specific dates that cannot be rescheduled.  If you have not made prior arrangements with The Studio prior to completing your purchase, then no refunds, extensions, or transfers can be made.

  • How do I manage my schedule online?

All clients are encouraged to schedule sessions and classes online.  This ensures that you have immediate access to my current availability and reduces time spent going back and forth.  Simply click the link below to schedule: Click Here to Schedule Sessions, Classes, and to Purchase Packages

  • I'm trying to cancel or reschedule my reservation, how do I do that online?

There are two ways to cancel a session online, one is via your reminder email or text message.  The second is via the pocketsuite app. To reschedule a session you will want to first cancel the session, and then book a new session.  If the above pathways are not working for you then please send a text message to (360) 774-4169. You will receive support canceling the session and then be sent a link to reschedule.

  • What do I need to bring with me to my session/class? 

Comfortable workout clothing is all you need to bring with you.  Some clients like to bring pilates socks (grippy socks) this is not required, but it can be nice for you to have.  Sessions will happen barefoot or in socks, and regular socks can be slippery, posing a safety risk.

  • I’m new to virtual fitness- what do I need to know and how do I set up? 

Welcome to virtual fitness!  It’s easier than you think! Here are a few things to keep in mind, to ensure a great experience.  Firstly, upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email that includes a link for the virtual call. Please make sure you have good lighting (not silhouetted) and contrasting colors can help your instructor to see you better.  If the class size is large the instructor may mute participants, please feel free to unmute yourself to ask questions, and/or use the chat bar to request specific areas of interest or explain injuries or issues you are experiencing. 

  • How do I know if I need private sessions? 

Private instruction is best for anyone who feels the need to have more attention and individualized programming. If you are experiencing pain or discomfort that isn’t remedied by group classes, or especially if taking the group class feels like it may be aggravating instead of helping your issues.  Please note that I am a personal trainer and pilates instructor and not a doctor.  With that said I’ve worked with hundreds of different issues, injuries, and conditions and I am happy to also be in contact and communicate with your other health care providers.  Most clients enjoy the regular accountability and consistency of having sessions on a weekly basis.  Others prefer to seek guidance and support and then work on their own for a few weeks before booking another follow-up.  The choice is yours.

4. ASSUMPTION OF RISK & WAIVER OF LIABILITY RELATING TO
CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19
—------------------------—------------------------—

The novel coronavirus, COVID-19 and its variants, has been declared a worldwide
pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. It is believed that an individual can be infected with COVID-19 without their knowledge and be asymptomatic. The health and safety of our clients is one of our top priorities. In the wake of COVID-19, Limber Arts LLC (the “Business”) and Limber Arts LLC (the “Instructor”) have implemented additional measures designed to provide you, our client, with a safe and positive experience, and to reduce the spread of COVID-19 (see below.) The pandemic circumstances require that all participants in the Instructor’s training sessions, classes, workshops, events, activities, and/or other programs (the “Session”) assume personal responsibility for the risks of participation in consideration for their participation in a Session.

Despite all of the precautions that you, other studio members, guests, individuals,
Instructor and representatives may take, the Instructor cannot guarantee that you will not become exposed to or infected with COVID-19, or that if infected, that you will not pass COVID-19 to others. Attending any Session hosted by the Instructor may increase your risk of contracting COVID-19, as does touching surfaces; using the equipment, facilities, and amenities; direct and/or indirect interactions with other studio members, guests or those who have COVID-19, or have been exposed to COVID-19. Consequently, you acknowledge and understand the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that by attending and participating in an Instructor Session you, and through you, your family, friends and others, may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19. Such exposure and/or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. You understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at, during or related to an Instructor Session may result either from COVID-19 itself and the inability of any action or series of actions to entirely prevent exposure to, transmission of, or infection by COVID-19. It also may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Business and Instructor’s representatives,
yourself, or others, including, but not limited to other Session participants.

Knowing this, you voluntarily assume all risks and dangers related to participation in
the Instructor’s Session, whether described in this document, otherwise known or
unknown, and accept sole responsibility for any injury to yourself, including but not
limited to, personal injury, illness, disability, or death, as well as any damages, losses,
claims, liabilities, actions or expenses of any kind arising from or related in any way to

COVID-19 and your participation in an Instructor Session, and the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Instructor’s representatives and agents (the “Claims”) Further, you hereby release, indemnify, discharge, defend and hold harmless the Instructor and its representatives, employees, and agents, from the Claims to the fullest extent permitted by law.
