Pros: Instructors are awesome and top tier. They have a variety of different classes to attend: Pole, Lyra, Hammock, etc. They have classes you can take at the Cleveland location as well for stretching, active stretching, contortion, and even a Twerk class (which I'm really eager to try). Also, parking at Akron is MUCH easier and free!Cons: They are very strict on how they do business from a financial standpoint. This is my biggest criticism, otherwise I'd have nothing but positive things to say. To name a few, but not all examples, they don't offer monthly memberships, only 6 months and 1 year. They charge late cancelation fees if you cancel within 24 hours, and they will usually only waive the fee if it's an emergency and they charge fees for no shows.On one occasion, I went to urgent care after work because I noticed the beginning signs of a skin infection the same day of a class I had later that evening. I called right when they opened to explain my situation and ask if it was possible to waive the late fees. They waived the cancelation fee for the Open Pole session, however, they still charged me $15 for cancelling the class. After telling me I'd be charged anyways because my situation wasn't an emergency, I asked if I could still attend anyways to avoid getting charged since I probably would have made it in time. The manager rightfully said that they can't allow me to attend because it's a potential risk to others (she made the right call). I had been charged late fees before when I didn't fully understand the policy; 100% on me, I paid the charges, and didn't say anything. But to charge me anyways for a medical condition that I called as soon as I could for and was willing to provide documentation for was not a decision I appreciated at all.My recommendation to avoid situations like this, would be to sign up maybe a few hours before a class to ensure you can attend. However, if you do this, you will have to keep an eye on the available spots, so you don't get waitlisted. This is more common at the Cleveland location, but it does happen from time to time at the Akron location.

When I first walked in I noticed immediately how clean and updated the studio looks from the excellent paint job that was done. The staff was very patient and helpful especially if it’s your first time and you’re unsure of your fitness level. I’ll definitely be booking for next month
