BYOND BARRE GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

 

BYOND BARRE is a boutique movement studio. We require every participant to select a plan, register for an account on our website, and sign a waiver in order to attend class at our studio. A member is considered to be anyone who is purchasing a one-time or recurring class plan. We have no long-term contracts (see “BYOND BARRE Membership,”) but we do utilize recurring, automatic payments, which can be canceled at any time before the next billing cycle.

 

Please read the sections of our terms and conditions that apply to your situation as a class participant, and the membership section if you choose recurring, automatic payments.

 

BYOND BARRE reserves the right to ask any participant that is acting in a disruptive manner, whose behavior infringes on the rights of other participants, or who acts in an unsafe manner to him/herself and/or others, to leave the studio. 

 

Members are required to wear a form of dress appropriate to the class they are participating in. Smoking is not allowed. Members are required to sign a waiver before participating in any group fitness class.

​

We may, from time to time, use photos or videos taken during class for marketing or promotional materials. Members have the right to request to be excluded from all marketing materials by emailing the studio at BYONDBARRE@GMAIL.COM. 

 

IMPORTANT: Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using BYOND BARRE facilities. 

 

BYOND BARRE USER POLICY

 

You must be 18 years of age or over to participate in any of our Classes at the Studio. 

 

BYOND BARRE Class participants understand that:

 

Monthly Unlimited Class Members have automatically renewing or recurring monthly plans. Plans are charged on a monthly basis, and the member has 30 days to attend an unlimited number of classes within that month. Unused weeks cannot be rescheduled, extended, or “rolled over” to a different month. Memberships are not transferrable and cannot be shared. Please see auto-payment rules and disclosures for monthly memberships. Complete details are located below in “Monthly Unlimited Members” terms and conditions. 

​

Weekly Unlimited Sampler plan purchases must be used within 7 days of start date selected at checkout. Unused days cannot be rescheduled, extended, “rolled over” to a different week. It is non-refundable after purchase, and is subject to late-cancellation and no-show fees (see full details under "Late Cancel or Absent from Scheduled Class").

​

Single Class Drop-in Class Plan purchases must be used within 30 days of purchase. It is non-refundable after purchase, and is subject to late-cancellation and no-show fees (see full details under "Late Cancel or Absent from Scheduled Class").

​

Instructors and Classes are subject to change. BYOND BARRE posts classes and scheduled instructors on our class schedule. Occasionally, we may need to substitute an instructor or cancel a class without prior warning, but we’ll do our best to notify members with as much notice as possible.

 

Studio Behavior and Conduct: We reserve the right to refuse anyone at the Studio access and suspend or terminate studio use or memberships if we reasonably consider that one’s conduct is dangerous, or in any way that negatively affects the interests of other users of the Studio or participants in our classes. This includes situations related to disruptive personal hygiene and inappropriate workout attire. All studio behavior and conduct violations are to be handled at the sole discretion of the studio.

 

Classes must be reserved in advance: Members must create an account on our website, and sign up for a class beforehand using our booking system. We strongly recommend managing class in our free app, Spaces by Wix.

​

Late Cancel or Absent from Scheduled Class: Classes must be canceled 2 hours or more prior to the scheduled class start time. Classes that are canceled less than 2 hours prior to the scheduled class time are considered a late cancelation. In this case, a class will be deducted from the canceling Member’s account. If a member is participating in an unlimited membership plan and cancels late, he/she is subject to a $5 cancellation fee. When Member is absent from their scheduled class and does not cancel before the class start time, a class will be deducted from the absent Member’s account. If he/she is participating in an unlimited membership plan and is absent without cancelling in advance, he/she is subject to a $5 no-show fee.

​

BYOND BARRE has limited class sizes and therefore needs to enforce the cancellation policy to assure that all members have access, when possible, to classes offered.

 

Late Arrival: Late arrivals are always permitted. However in situations of a full class, if a Member or Guest with a reserved class spot arrives more than eight (8) minutes late, his/her reservation may be given away to another client. 

 

Drop-ins: Any BYOND BARRE Member may drop in to a class as long as they register and pay online for the class before participating. However, if the class is full in advance, drop-ins may not be accommodated. 

 

BYOND BARRE MEMBERSHIP

 

BYOND BARRE members agree to the following:

​

Monthly Unlimited Members: BYOND BARRE monthly plans are a non-contract, recurring auto-payment that allows the client to access as many qualifying BYOND BARRE classes as they would like each month at an all-inclusive rate. The auto-payment membership is to be used by the holder only and cannot be shared. Members may cancel auto-payments using the member's area on our website at least one day prior to their next billing date (See full details under "Cancelling Your Membership").

 

Suspending a Membership: Since BYOND BARRE memberships are non-contract memberships that can be suspended or canceled at any time, BYOND BARRE reserves the right to offer account suspensions as a benefit to Members and may revoke the benefit at any time.

 

To pause a membership, Members must email Byond Barre (BYONDBARRE@gmail.com) the day before their desired suspension date. Once suspended, a membership is paused for a minimum of three (3) weeks and a maximum of three (3) months. After three (3) months, the Member's paused plan will be automatically cancelled. While a membership is paused, a Member's billing is also paused on the day of their 30-day billing cycle. A Member is not permitted to attend studio classes while their membership is suspended, unless otherwise booked under a separate studio plan option.

 

To reinstate membership, Members must email Byond Barre the day before their desired activation date; reactivation cannot be scheduled in advance. Once reinstated, the 30-day membership billing restarts mid-cycle according to how many unused days are left in the month's billing cycle. (For example: If a member pauses their plan 10 days after their last billing date, they will unpause their membership with 20 days left before their next billing date.)

​

Cancelling Your Membership: Members may cancel their monthly membership in their accounts at anytime so long as it is one (1) or more days before their next billing cycle. To cancel a membership, a member is expected to use the settings provided in their account on the BYOND BARRE website (www.BYONDBARRE.com) following the steps below:

1. Log into your account online (desktop works best).

2. Click the menu tab "Plan Details," and select your active plan.

3. Click "Cancel subscription," and click "Yes, Cancel" in the pop-up.

4. Monitor your bank account to ensure no future charges are processed. If an error occurs, contact the studio immediately at BYONDBARRE@GMAIL.COM.

​

If a member is unable to cancel independently, the member should email the studio at BYONDBARRE@GMAIL.COM at least two (2) business days before their next billing cycle, and explicitly ask for the studio to cancel their membership on their behalf. Any requests made less than (2) business days before a member's next billing cycle may not be accommodated in time, and any refunds subsequently required will be subject to our refund policy (see "Refunds"). While the studio may support a client in canceling their membership, the studio is ultimately not held responsible for a client's failure to successfully cancel their membership – it is the client's sole responsibility to manage their own membership and ensure it is cancelled successfully before their next billing cycle.

​

If a membership is canceled, any pricing discounts will be lost and if the client elects to rejoin in the future they will need to join at current BYOND BARRE rates. 

 

BILLING

 

By starting a Membership, a Member authorizes BYOND BARRE to charge him/her a monthly fee at the current Studio rate.

​

Auto-Pay Package: When Members  sign up and purchase an “Auto-Pay” Package, the first month will be billed immediately. Auto-Pay Packages will auto-renew on a 30-day cycle. Payment will be taken on the effective date of your auto-renew (a “Renewal Date”), provided that, if we are unable for any reason to take payment on a Renewal Date, we will take payment as soon as practically possible thereafter. Declined charges past 7 days will default the account and void any future membership discounts.

​

Payment Method Information can be edited by logging into a BYOND BARRE account and updating accordingly. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and Payment Method information is not edited provided an Account has not been canceled in accordance with these Terms (see, “Late Cancel or Absent from Scheduled Class”), the Member remains responsible for any uncollected amounts.

​

Refunds: UNLESS EXPRESSLY STATED TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, OR AS PROVIDED BY NEW JERSEY LAW, PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS. However, following  a cancellation of an Auto-Pay package members will continue to have access to the studio through the end of their paid cycle.

​

All non-recurring memberships are nonrefundable once purchased. This includes, but is not limited to: the Weekly Sampler or the Single Class Drop in. 

​

If a member wishes to cancel their recurring membership but fails to do so before their next billing charge, they must contact the studio within 24 hours of the next cycle's billing charge to qualify for an exceptional refund at the studio's sole discretion. If a refund is granted, a $10 service fee will be deducted from the total refund to cover the transaction fees incurred by the studio for the initial charge and subsequent refund.

 

After 24 hours, a billing cycle that has begun is not eligible for a refund. This includes situations similar, but not limited, to the following:

• If a member requests a refund after an active billing cycle begins ,and attends one more more classes under an unlimited class plan.

• If a member retroactively requests a refund from a previous billing cycle, regardless if classes were attended during that cycle or not.

• If a member attends one more more classes under an unlimited class plan, and is displeased with the services.

• If a member purchased an unlimited class plan, and were unaware of the terms of the plan due to their own negligence.

• If a member purchased an unlimited class plan at one point, and forgot the plan was active.

 

Rate Increases: If members allow their monthly auto-pay contract to lapse or if they cancel their membership, fees will adjust to current BYOND BARRE rates. BYOND BARRE reserves the right to adjust auto-payment membership rates at any time for any reason with 30 days notice.
