These Terms and Conditions apply when you book, purchase or attend heated fitness classes, sessions, packages, memberships or related services at Drip Studio.
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before booking. By booking or attending a class at Drip Studio, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.
1. Who we are

2. Our services
Drip Studio offers heated fitness classes and related services.
Classes take place in a heated studio environment. The studio may be heated up to 42°C, although not every class will be this hot. Classes may vary in style, level, intensity, pace and focus.
Some classes may be strong, sweaty and physically challenging. Others may be calmer, easier or more restorative.
We aim to provide a safe, supportive and professional environment. However, every client is responsible for working within their own ability, listening to their body, taking breaks when needed and informing us of anything relevant to their health, safety or participation.
3. Bookings
All classes must be booked in advance through our website, app or approved booking system.
Spaces are limited and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Your booking is only confirmed once it has been completed through the booking system and, where applicable, payment has been received.
Please check the class type, date, time, location and class description carefully before booking.
4. Payments
Payment is required at the time of booking unless otherwise stated.
Prices for classes, packages, memberships and offers will be shown on our website, app or booking system.
We reserve the right to update prices from time to time. Any price changes will not affect bookings that have already been confirmed.
Payments may be processed securely by third-party payment providers. We do not store full debit or credit card details ourselves.
Where applicable, no-show fees may be charged using the payment method linked to your account or booking profile.
5. Class packages and memberships
Where we offer class packages, memberships or passes, the terms of that package or membership will be shown at the time of purchase.
This may include:
Number of classes included
Expiry date
Payment amount
Renewal date, where applicable
Cancellation terms
Any restrictions on use
Class packages and memberships are for the named client only and cannot be transferred to another person unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Unused classes are not normally refundable unless required by law or agreed by us.
6. Cancellation by you
If you can no longer attend a class, you must cancel your booking at least 24 hours before the class start time.
Cancellations must be made through our booking system, app or by contacting us directly.
If you cancel with at least 24 hours’ notice, your class credit will be returned to your account, where applicable.
If you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice, or you do not attend your booked class, the following policy applies:
If you booked using a class package, your class credit will be lost.
If you are an unlimited member, you will be charged the full class amount of £17 as a no-show fee.
This policy is in place because spaces at Drip Studio are limited, and late cancellations or no-shows mean another client may not be able to attend.
7. Cancellation by us
We may occasionally need to cancel, change or reschedule a class due to instructor availability, low attendance, studio maintenance, safety concerns, emergencies, heating issues or circumstances outside our control.
If we cancel a class you have booked, we will offer one of the following:
A replacement class
A class credit
A refund for the cancelled class
We are not responsible for additional costs you may incur, such as travel, parking, childcare or loss of earnings.
8. Late arrivals
Please arrive in good time before your class starts.
If you arrive late, we may not be able to allow you to join the class. This is for your safety, because heated classes require proper setup, instruction and warm-up.
Late arrivals may be treated as a missed class and may still be charged or deducted from your package, in line with our cancellation and no-show policy.
9. Heated studio safety
Drip Studio classes take place in a heated environment. The studio may be heated up to 42°C.
The heat is part of the experience, and you should expect to sweat.
For your safety, you must:
Arrive hydrated
Bring water to class
Take breaks when needed
Work at a level suitable for your body
Stop immediately if you feel dizzy, faint, unwell, overheated, short of breath or in pain
Tell the instructor if something does not feel right
Follow instructor guidance at all times
You are responsible for listening to your body and pacing yourself throughout the class.
10. Health, injuries, pregnancy and medical conditions
Before attending a class, you must tell us about anything that may affect your ability to take part safely. This includes, but is not limited to:
Injuries
Pain
Health conditions
Pregnancy
Postnatal considerations

Medication
Dizziness or fainting
Heart, blood pressure or respiratory conditions

Any advice from a doctor or medical professional
If you have a health condition, injury, are pregnant, postnatal, taking medication, prone to dizziness, sensitive to heat, or unsure whether heated exercise is suitable for you, please check with a doctor or medical professional before attending.
We may ask you to complete a health screening form, PAR-Q, waiver or consultation form before taking part.
We reserve the right to refuse or stop participation if we reasonably believe it would be unsafe for you to continue.
11. Class suitability and intensity
Drip Studio offers a range of heated classes. Some classes may be strong, powerful and physically demanding. Others may be slower, easier or more restorative.
It is your responsibility to choose a class that is suitable for your fitness level, experience and health status.
If you are new to heated classes, we recommend starting with a gentler option and building up gradually.
If you are unsure which class to book, please contact us before attending and we will be happy to help.
12. Clothing and what to bring
Please wear lightweight, breathable activewear that allows you to move safely and freely.
Please bring:
Water

Any personal items you may need after class
You may also want to bring a change of clothes for after your session, although this is not essential.
Please avoid clothing or jewellery that could restrict movement or create a safety issue during class.
13. Personal belongings
Personal belongings are brought into the studio at your own risk.
We are not responsible for loss, theft or damage to personal items unless caused by our negligence.
14. Studio conduct

Record other clients without permission
Damage studio property
Disrupt the class environment
We reserve the right to refuse entry, remove a client from class, suspend bookings or cancel a membership where behaviour is unsafe, inappropriate or disruptive.
15. Photos, videos and social media
You may take personal photos or videos in the studio only where this does not disturb others and does not include other clients without their permission.
We may occasionally take photos or videos for marketing, social media or website use. We will ask for your permission before using identifiable images or videos of you for promotional purposes.
16. Private sessions, workshops and events
If we offer private sessions, workshops, events or special classes, additional terms may apply.
These may include different cancellation periods, payment terms, refund terms, health requirements or suitability guidance.

17. Refunds
Refunds are considered in line with these Terms and Conditions and your statutory rights.
We do not normally offer refunds for:
Late cancellations
Missed classes
Unused class credits after expiry
Change of mind after attending or using services
Failure to attend within the package validity period
This does not affect your statutory rights.
If a refund is approved, it will usually be made to the original payment method.
18. Changes to our timetable, services or instructors
We may update our timetable, class types, instructors, prices or studio services from time to time.
We will try to give reasonable notice of significant changes where possible, but we cannot guarantee that any particular class, instructor, timetable slot or service will always be available.
19. Liability
We provide our services with reasonable care and skill.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions limits or excludes our liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or breach of your statutory rights.
You are responsible for following safety instructions, working within your ability, pacing yourself in the heated environment and telling us about any health, injury or medical concerns that may affect your participation.
20. Events outside our control
We are not responsible for failure or delay in providing services where this is caused by events outside our reasonable control.
This may include severe weather, power failure, illness, emergencies, government restrictions, building issues, heating issues, safety concerns or other circumstances beyond our control.
Where possible, we will offer a suitable alternative, class credit or refund depending on the circumstances.
21. Complaints
If you have a concern or complaint, please contact us as soon as possible so we can try to resolve it.

We will aim to respond within a reasonable time.

The latest version will be published on our website. The terms that apply to your booking are the terms in place at the time you make that booking, unless a change is required by law or for safety reasons.
