💚A few studio etiquette and housekeeping reminders 💚
📵 Phones on silent before class starts please. Also check those sneaky alarms are turned off. Of course I will make an exception if you are expecting an important call, just please give me a heads up!
📱 Pilates hour = phone-free hour. I don’t expect clients to be texting, scrolling or using phones during class. If you feel the need to be on your phone, then my class is not for you.
⏰ Please arrive a few minutes early so you can get settled before class starts. Running late? I will call to check, as it does happen…the studio doors will be open, but if we’ve started the grounding section at the beginning of class, please tiptoe in quietly.
❤️🩹 Please keep me updated on changes to your health. New injury, surgery, pregnancy, medication, diagnosis, referral or investigation? Let me know ASAP before class (not when you arrive!) so I can adapt things appropriately and keep you safe. This is on the waiver you sign when you signup too.
🧦 Grip socks must be worn. Forgotten yours? Borrow a pair from the basket (also loads of spare hair bands if you forget yours!) by the studio doors and pop them in the toilet hand towel bins when finished, or you can purchase some Paige’s Pilates socks for £10!
🏋️ Please return equipment to where/ how you found it when class finishes. Spare mats used for cushioning can be left out for me to disinfect.
☕ Finished your tea or flannel? Please pop them back on the trays on the stage.
👟 No shoes in the studio. Please leave them in the baskets under the benches. You can bring valuables into the studio and leave them on the stage, not by your mat, as I am walking around to do hands-on correction and need the floor space to allow this.
🥤 Help yourself to water, Ribena and teas (mint, lemon green tea, red berry, roobios, chamomile) in the kitchen before class.
🧻 Finished a loo roll? Please replace it from the spare basket next to the toilet.
🩷 Sanitary products and deodorant are available in both toilets! No one wants to be caught off guard!
🛋️ Sofa cushions = yes. Sofa arms = no.
💡 If you turn a light on, please turn it off.
🤸 Please don’t use the walls for balance. The paint will show any marks! I can provide rollers or you can use the stage instead.
💚Thank you for helping me look after the studio 💚
I’ve worked incredibly hard to create a space that feels clean, calm, welcoming and safe for everyone who walks through the door. If we all do our little bit to respect the space and the people around us, it stays that way for everyone to enjoy! 😘
