Clients who regularly book but don’t turn up to, or cancel, classes will pay a penalty fee or have their membership suspended at the discretion of the management. Class cancellation and class changes by email can not be deemed acceptable owing to the irregular opening hours of the studio reception as we can not guarantee the information will be received within the correct notice period.
