  • Final Charge: Your payment or credit deduction will be finalized once you are officially added to the class.

  • Uncertain? Don’t Join! If you are unsure about attending, do not join the waitlist. Instead, check availability frequently.

  • Our Goal: We strive to get everyone into a class and ensure spots go to members committed to attending.

  • Minors (under 18) must have a parent/guardian sign a waiver before booking classes.

5. Studio Rules

At Sweat Rebel Fitness, we are all about respect, inclusivity, and community. Please follow these guidelines to keep our space welcoming for everyone:

Respect for Others & Their Journey

  • Everyone in class is on their own unique path—some are trying new things, others are focused on specific goals. Be present, open, and supportive of those around you.

  • Vulnerability is part of growth. Encourage, don’t judge—whether someone is pushing their limits or taking it slow.

Hygiene & Cleanliness

  • Personal Hygiene Matters – Arrive fresh and clean, wear deodorant, and bring a towel if needed.

  • Wipe Down Equipment – After class, please sanitize any equipment, mats, or bikes you use.

  • Keep Our Space Clean – We share our facility with the Prince Rupert Racquet Association and the Prince Rupert Rugby Club. Respect the space by cleaning up after yourself and tidying shared areas.

  • Help Keep Costs Low – Our community thrives when everyone pitches in! Return equipment, dispose of trash, and leave the studio better than you found it.

Mindfulness & Presence in Class

  • Arrive on time and be fully engaged in the experience.

  • Avoid excessive talking during class—this is a space for movement, focus, and growth.

  • Listen to your instructor and follow class flow for a safe and effective workout.

Let’s create an environment where everyone feels empowered, respected, and part of something bigger. 💙🔥

6. Membership Cancellation & Consumer Rights

  • New memberships:

    • Can be canceled within 5 days of signing up (if the total purchase is over $50).

  • Existing memberships:

    • Require a 1-month notice for cancellation.

    • Cancellations with less than 1 month’s notice will be subject to a $40 fee.

  • To cancel, email us at sweatrebelfitness@gmail.com.

  • Check your account to confirm your membership type:

    • Auto-renewing monthly payments OR limited-time class credits.

    • We do our best to monitor accounts, but we cannot guarantee we will catch auto-renewals or expiring credits.

  • Mark your calendar if you are concerned about membership renewals to avoid unexpected charges.

  • We are a small business – cancellations and last-minute changes impact the fees we incur, so we appreciate your understanding!

7. Liability Waiver

Your safety is our priority, but participation in fitness activities carries inherent risks. By attending Sweat Rebel classes, you agree to the following:

  • You understand that fitness classes involve physical exertion, which may result in injury.

  • You confirm that you are physically fit and have no medical conditions that would prevent safe participation.

  • You have consulted a doctor before attending class, especially if you have any pre-existing conditions.

  • You accept full responsibility for your own health, safety, and well-being while participating in any Sweat Rebel Fitness activities.

  • If you feel unwell or injured during class, you must stop immediately and inform the instructor.

  • You understand that Sweat Rebel is not liable for any injuries, health complications, or damages that may occur before, during, or after class, except in cases of gross negligence.

  • You waive all claims against Sweat Rebel Fitness, its owners, staff, and affiliates, releasing them from any liability related to your participation in classes or use of facilities.

  • If you fail to follow instructions or safety guidelines, Sweat Rebel reserves the right to deny participation in future classes.

By booking or attending a class, you agree to this waiver and acknowledge the assumption of risk.

8. Miscellaneous

  • This Agreement is governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, without consideration of conflicts of law principles. Any legal action related to this Agreement must be filed in Prince Rupert, British Columbia, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

  • This Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and Sweat Rebel Fitness, overriding any prior agreements, whether written or verbal.

  • If any part of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions will still apply.

  • Sweat Rebel Fitness has the right to enforce this Agreement through legal or equitable remedies, including injunctive relief (court orders to prevent certain actions), without needing to prove financial damages.

  • If Sweat Rebel chooses not to enforce a right or policy, this does not mean we waive that right in the future—it remains in effect.
