What to know for class

  • Arrive Early: We value the importance of a proper warm-up to prevent injuries! We recommend arriving 15 minutes before your class to warm up. Due to the risk of injury, students cannot be admitted 15 minutes after class begins.
  • Use our Props: We have lacrosse balls, foam rollers, straps, and yoga blocks available in the prop closet for you to warm up.
  • Stay hydrated: We recommend bringing a water bottle to take into the studio with you (clear liquids only).
  • Plan: Use the restroom before class to avoid disruptions.
  • Stay present: Maximize your class time by only stepping out for emergencies.
  • Pointe Policy: Pointe shoes are not allowed in any classes unless the class is designated as a pointe class. Approval is required to book the Rise 2 (Pointe class).
