Late Policy
We understand that sometimes there are circumstances beyond your control that prevent you from showing up to class early or on time. Unlike some other gyms, we don’t implement “burpee penalties” or anything of that sort for being late.
We do, however, want to stress the importance of the warmups and WOD briefing that occurs in the beginning of every class. The coaches take you through dynamic warm ups each day that focus on prepping your joints and muscles for that particular wod. We also routinely see what injuries or other issues the athletes may have that day to properly scale or modify the wod for that day. Our warm ups and briefings are designed to not only help you perform better, but to allow you to train safely. When you do show up late, we do our best to warm you up, brief you, and get you caught up to the rest of the class-without taking attention away from those who showed up on time.
We now formally ask that you please do NOT show up late, –past the warm up. If this occurs, we ask that you wait until the next class in the staging/stretching area. At this point in time, the coaches are already focused on coaching the other members through the SWOD or WOD and to divert their attention to one or two late people to ensure a proper warm up just isn’t fair, nor safe, for the other members. Also, if you do show up after the warm up, please do not “sneak” into class by warming up on your own. You do not know if we prescribed specific mobility drills or special briefing in your absence. We simply do not want injuries to occur.
So in a nutshell: Show up during the warm up: We’ll get you caught up. Show up during the WOD or SWOD: Wait til next class. Thank you!!
