STUDIO POLICIES
-
We enforce a 12-hour cancellation policy.
If you need to cancel, please do so more than 12 hours before the class.
Cancelling within the 12-hour window before class will result in the following:
MEMBERS
Mat: Credit lost+ 20$ penalty
CLASS PACK USERS
If you late cancel, you will lose the class from your pack. If you do not show up for class (without managing your spot), you will lose the class and will be charged a $30 penalty.
WHY?
Canceling in advance gives other members the chance to sign up and organize their day with enough time to plan. It also helps our small business operate smoothly and allows our team to prepare the best experience for you.
And at MuseBody, the experience is an energy exchange—when the room is full, the collective energy makes the session more fun, connected, and uplifting for everyone.
We always work with members to ensure everyone understands our policies. Please reach out to us via e-mail at admin@musebodycollective.com with any questions and we will be happy to speak with you to provide answers.
-
If you cancel your spot within the 12-hour window before class, this will be classified as a late cancel. Late cancel fees will be processed within 24 hours of the late cancel.
-
Please cancel your spot on your account, via our website or app.
-
Failing to attend class will result in the loss of the class credit and a penalty. We appreciate you making every effort to cancel if you can’t attend, as it allows us to respect the time and commitment of our instructors, who often adjust their own schedules to be here for you.
-
Please communicate all membership-related requests and account inquiries via email.
Social media is not an upheld form of communication for these types of questions, and we are unable to address them in the studio.We are a small team and do not respond to emails over the weekend unless the matter is urgent. Please allow 2–3 business days for a reply, though we always make an effort to respond as promptly as possible.
If you prefer to speak with someone directly, we’re happy to schedule a call so we can give you our full, undivided attention and support.
-
Please arrive on time for class, as we are unable to accept late entries.
For the safety and comfort of our community, our teachers are required to remain fully focused on the room and begin building the energy of the session from the very first moment. To protect this flow, our doors lock from the outside once class begins.Because of this, we’re unable to let late friends slip in—thank you for understanding and honoring this boundary.
If you’re new to MuseBody, we encourage you to arrive at least 10 minutes early so we can welcome you and help you settle in with ease.
Your presence and punctuality help us create the elevated, connected MuseBody experience we’re known for.

Every body is different. Before taking any MuseBody class or using our heat and light technologies, each client is responsible for doing their own research and consulting a qualified healthcare provider, especially if you have a medical condition, are pregnant, or take any medication or have any injuries.
By booking, you confirm that you have read our contraindications below, done your own research, consulted your doctor where appropriate, and disclosed any relevant health conditions, medications, or pregnancy to us.
MuseBody does not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical condition, and our team cannot provide individualized medical advice.
If you feel dizzy, lightheaded, nauseous, or unwell at any point during class, stop immediately, hydrate, and let your instructor know. There is a bench just outside the rear of the studio where you are always welcome to sit and take a moment.
-
For mat classes, you’re welcome to bring your own mat if you prefer.
We do not require it, and studio mats are available for you to use. If you choose to bring your own, we kindly ask that you place the unused studio mat in the designated mat storage area to keep the room organized and flowing.We do require all members to bring a full-sized sweat towel—even if you bring your own mat—for both safety and sanitary purposes. If you forget your towel, you can purchase one in our studio lobby through your MuseBody app.

Disclaimer: MuseBody is not a medical provider, and our team members are not medical professionals. The information in this section is provided for general educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Please consult a qualified healthcare provider regarding your individual circumstances.
If you are pregnant, you must speak with your doctor or midwife and obtain their permission in writing before attending any MuseBody class. Please email your written clearance to admin@musebodycollective.com. We are unable to book or admit you to class until we have received it.
Why we require this: healthcare authorities, including the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), generally recommend that pregnant women avoid "hot" fitness classes such as hot yoga or hot Pilates. Raising maternal core body temperature (hyperthermia), particularly in the first trimester, has been linked in published research to an increased risk of neural tube defects (Milunsky et al., JAMA, 1992; Chambers, Birth Defects Research Part A, 2006).
There is also very limited research on red and near-infrared light exposure during pregnancy, so its safety has not been established.
We are not medical professionals and cannot provide individualized medical advice. Please also review "Are there health conditions that make heat or red light unsafe for me?" below.

We’re honored you’re starting your journey with us! Since driving REAL results is the goal, our workouts are HARD. If you’re new to our studio, We encourage modification in line with the movements and format that our instructors are teaching to keep the energy in the room unified, and all bodies safe from collision. Each movement can be adapted to decrease intensity(removing bands/ weights/ depth of movement) and we encourage you to do your best to focus on form first.
If movement is new to you, give us a heads-up, and our instructors will ensure you’re set up for success. Our “Introductory Offer for New Clients” is generally a great place to start. Need recommendations? Send us an email at admin@musebodycollective.com.

Disclaimer: MuseBody is not a medical provider, and our team members are not medical professionals. The information in this section is provided for general educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Please consult a qualified healthcare provider regarding your individual circumstances.
Our heated classes use Far-Infrared (FIR) heat, and our studio uses Red Light and Near-Infrared (NIR) light technology. These are gentle and non-invasive, but they are not right for everyone. Published research has identified conditions in which they may be unsafe or require medical guidance first. This list is not exhaustive and is not medical advice.
FAR-INFRARED HEAT / HEATED CLASSES
Pregnancy: elevated core body temperature in early pregnancy has been linked to an increased risk of neural tube defects [1, 2]. Written doctor clearance is required (see our pregnancy policy above).
Heart conditions: including unstable angina, recent heart attack, severe aortic stenosis, and uncontrolled high or low blood pressure [3, 4].
Multiple sclerosis and other heat-sensitive neurological conditions: heat can temporarily worsen symptoms [5].
Men trying to conceive: regular heat exposure has been shown to temporarily reduce sperm production [6].
Fever, acute illness, dehydration, or alcohol or recreational drug use before or during class [3, 7].
Medications that affect blood pressure, heart rate, sweating, or heat tolerance (e.g., diuretics, beta-blockers, some psychiatric medications). Check with your doctor or pharmacist [3].
Recent surgery, acute injury, or an actively inflamed or bleeding area: get medical clearance first.
RED LIGHT & NEAR-INFRARED LIGHT (PHOTOBIOMODULATION)
Active cancer, or exposure over a known or suspected tumor: research on red/near-infrared light and cancer is still evolving and mixed. Get clearance from your oncologist [8].
Photosensitivity: including photosensitizing medications (e.g., certain antibiotics, retinoids, some diuretics, St. John's Wort) and light-sensitive conditions such as lupus or porphyria [9].
Seizure disorders, especially photosensitive epilepsy: flashing or pulsed light can trigger seizures in susceptible people [10].
Eye safety: never stare directly into the light panels.
Pregnancy: safety data are insufficient (see our pregnancy policy above).
If any of these apply to you, or if you are unsure, please consult your doctor before booking.
