Waitlist Policy
Our waitlist helps fill last-minute openings and keeps classes running smoothly. Because space is limited — especially in reformer classes — we are unable to manually override the system or guarantee entry once a class is full.
Please review how it works below.
-
• If a class is full, you may join the waitlist.
• When a spot becomes available, the system automatically notifies the first person on the list via text or email (based on your account settings).
• You will have 3 hours to confirm your spot.
• If you decline or do not respond, the spot is offered to the next person on the list.If a class is full and the waitlist is also full, the schedule will show the class as “full” instead of “join waitlist.
Notifications are sent between 6:00am–9:00pm.
-
Waitlist closes:
• 4 hours before Yoga & Barre classes
• 12 hours before Reformer Pilates classesAfter the cutoff window, openings become “first to confirm” — meaning the system will notify everyone on the waitlist when a spot opens and the first person to confirm secures the spot. Please make sure to read the response from the system carefully so you can see if you made it in or if the spot was filled.
-
We understand that plans shift and last-minute openings happen. You are welcome to arrive and check in if you are on the waitlist and we will do our best to fit you into class. However:
• Entry is not guaranteed if you arrive.
• We cannot exceed class capacity for fire safetyIf space becomes available due to a no-show, we will add based on who has arrived first or waitlist order if multiple people are waiting to get in.
Important
• Please ensure you are subscribed to text/email notifications in Momence.
• If you are added to class from the waitlist and do not attend, you will lose your class credit and unlimited memberships will be charged a no show fee of $15
• If you do not receive notification before the waitlist closes, you have not been added to class.
