Class registrations will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis and guaranteed only once payment has been received. Registration will close one week prior to each session. IF a class does not have minimum (5 people for studio classes, 2 for Pilates studio classes), the class will be cancelled. IF there are enough students enrolled for the 6 wk session, then we can accept single class enrollments -- up until the class maximum (8 people for group studio (10 for Tai Chi), 4 people for Pilates studio classes). No one may register for another person. Please note: For both new and continuing students, the only way to guarantee your space in a class is to prepay. **Please be aware that registration in one session DOES NOT guarantee registration for subsequent sessions without full advanced payment.
