We want to be totally transparent with you: a lot goes into the final minutes before class, which is why we require you to be present five minutes before the class start time. It’s a lot like flying — we need that time to finalize the roster and everyone’s starting spots, as well as to accommodate the wait list and any needed moves. If we started this process at the beginning of class, the class would start late and you wouldn’t get your full workout.
If you are late to class and we have not given away your spot to the waitlist, it won’t cost you anything but a few hundred calories. Just check in, come in, and try not to disturb the Barry’s clients who have already begun their workout.
