First Visit Guide

We recommend signing up for class in advance to secure your spot. Booking for classes opens 3 days in advance of class time. If it's your first time visiting us, we recommend our 2 Week Trial for $49!

You can book your classes a few ways:

Class booking windows open 3 days in advance of the class. For example, Mondays classes will open for booking on Fridays.

If the class you want to sign up for is full, you can add yourself to the Waitlist. You will receive an email notification (or app notification if you have the app) to let you know you made it off the Waitlist and into class!

If you decide to book another class, please cancel your waitlist spot.

TIP: The waitlist locks 12 hours before the class, so if you have not been automatically added to class by then, check back as spots become available with cancellations!

Bring clothes you are comfortable exercising in, athletic shoes, and your water bottle.We recommend eating 1-2hrs before class, and being well hydrated.

If you forget your hydration or fuel, we have water and snacks available for purchase at the OA Cafe. Don't forget, your first smoothie is on us!

We'll guide you through every step of your first visit!

Please arrive at least 10 mins prior to your class start time. Our Member Experience Team will greet you and help you get ready! Here's what to expect:

  • Check-in with Front Desk
  • You will have your profile photo taken to help our Coaches get to know you
  • You will receive a quick tour of the gym. Our team will show you the amenities and where to go for your class
  • Grab a towel and head down to "the pit" for class
  • Your Coach will introduce themselves, and the workout will begin with a demonstration and warm-up!

We want you to have a positive experience in class, so here are a few tips to help keep the energy high and the space safe for all:

  • Phones away – this is your time to unplug and focus on you
  • Listen during the demo – so you feel confident in the movements before we start
  • Avoid dropping weights– safety first, always, while also reducing noise 

Our coaches will guide you through everything, and if you ever have questions, just ask. You’re in good hands here.

Any class booking cancelled less than 12 hours prior to the class start time, and no-shows, are considered a late cancel. All late cancellations will be charged a $15 fee.

If you know you cannot make it to class, please cancel your reservation to allow another member to workout in your place!
