6. Cancellation of classes

16.1 Rules for cancellation and check-in

Each Bruce Studios partner may apply its own cancellation policy. The latest allowed cancellation time is shown in the partner's studio description and in each class booking. If the Member cancels after the allowed time, it counts as a late cancellation, and the Member receives one (1) strike. Late cancellations can be made up to ten (10) minutes before the class starts. Check-in can generally be completed up to five (5) minutes before the class begins. After that, it is considered a late check-in. Some partners may lock the doors after this window. If the Member arrives late and cannot check in, it is recorded as a miss.

One (1) strike is given after three (3) late check-ins within thirty (30) days. To be valid, a check-in must be accompanied by actual participation. Checking in without attending is considered a no-show. A no-show automatically results in three (3) strikes.

16.2 Blocking due to strikes

If the Member accumulates three (3) strikes, they are blocked from booking new classes for fourteen (14) days. During the block, the Member may still attend already booked classes and use solo training. The Member may not cancel their membership or Trial while blocked. The Member may either wait for the block to expire or choose to be unblocked immediately by paying a fee. Strikes are removed automatically one (1) at a time every thirty (30) days, starting from the first strike.

16.3 Extension of blocking period

If the Member makes additional infractions while already blocked, the block is extended: One (1) day for a late check-in Three (3) days for a late cancellation Seven (7) days for a no-show The number of days blocked affects the price for unblocking. Once the block has been extended by seven (7) days, the fee to unblock is increased accordingly. It is not possible to pause a membership during an active block. If a scheduled pause overlaps with a blocking period, the remaining block days will resume after the pause ends.

16.4 Studio-specific policies

Bruce Studios partners may apply additional rules. This may include studio-specific blocking rules. Such policies will be noted in the respective studio description in the App.
