For FIT Group Classes – You can “early cancel” out of class up to 15 minutes into class. After the 15 minutes, this will be considered a “late cancellation”, and you will be charged for the class. This policy is enforced!

For FIT Personal Training Sessions – We require a 24-hour notice for any cancellation. Please contact your trainer via phone call or text so they can put another client in your timeslot.
