Q: Who should signup for a multi-week round of Crazy Eds Pilates?

A; Our focus is on Beginner Style Pilates for women curious about a Pilates style workout, designed by Ed, specifically for active beginners who have never done Pilates before. Are you already active, looking for a different more mindful way to generate strength, balance, posture, and tone with a little bit of attitude and a lot fun,. oh and no impact? Then Crazy Eds Pilates is the Pilates style workout you seek

Q: What should I bring to my first day of class?

A: A smile, a no leak water bottle, a small sweat towel, CLEAN feet and a pair of CLEAN comfortable SOCKS. If you have sticky socks - even better but not necessary first few days.

Oh, and do NOT wear flip flops to class. Just do not do it.

Q: How do I sign up for a round of classes?

A: When classes are available.... there will be a list of availabilities on the CLASS SIGNUP page. If no classes are listed then there is no availability. Check back every few weeks and also regularly check out our Facebook page.

Q: Why doesn’t customer service answer my calls or text/email me back the same day or even the day after?

First, there is no such thing as a fitness emergency and at Crazy Ed's we spend most of our time on the studio floor having fun teaching Pilates to others. At Crazy Ed's you get an amazing workout by amazing trainers who really know their stuff and make your time in studio safe, challenging and fun. Having said that - Yeah, you are actually lucky if you get a response with-in 48 hours. Responses are reserved for NOT already answered questions via our FAQs and Do's and Don’ts page. If your message is not already answered on the FAQs & Do's & Don'ts you will more than likely eventually get a response. We are damn good trainers - went to school for it and everything :-) - not customer service. We pretty much don’t have any so don’t expect much in terms of customer service... expect an amazingly affordable, fun, and challenging workout.

Q: What Ages do you allow?

A: We are accepting ages 21 and older. Current class participants can request mild accomodation depending.

Q: How Much do you charge?

A: Our rates tend to vary through out the year between $15 and $21 per session. When a new schedule is up the posted rate is the rate for that round.

Q: What is up with the NON refundable deposit?

A: Most spots fill so your spot is a spot someone else could be enjoying and paying for. If you reserve a spot and then back out (for what ever reason) a day, a week, or even upto 2 weeks before the 1st day of class - well, that kinda puts us in a bind. Sooooo - there is an initial $55.00 NON-refundable deposit required to put a hold on a slot for you. For your convenience , you will have approx 48 hours from the time you reserve your time slot to when we process your CC for the $55.00 NON refundable deposit. The deposit is NON - refundable. We are very upfront about this before you reserve a spot and we give approx 48 hours after you reserve a spot for you to notify us, via text or email, before the non refundable deposit is actually processed. If you are already thinking you may be in a position where you may need to request a deposit refund - please do not reserve a spot - so it can be open for another.

Q: When do you charge my CC the $55 non-refundable deposit?

A: For your convenience , and because we understand plans change; we do not immediately process your deposit payment. Not to worry, your time slot is reserved when you submitted your info HOWEVER your non refundable deposit is charged approx 48 hours later. IF you make your cancel request to us via text or email BEFORE the non refundable deposit is actually processed (approx 48 hour after your submission)- we are happy to not charge the deposit and cut you out of the schedule BUT - if your request comes to us AFTER we have processed the non refundable deposit - then..... weellllll.... The deposit is NON - refundable therefor no refund of deposit will be given.

Q: Do you allow Partial sign ups?

No, we are not a participating Silver Sneakers fitness location.

Q: Do you offer FREE sessions to try it out?

NO, we suggest you sign up for a full round.

Q: Can I watch a class to see if I like it?

Sorry but no. For a number of reasons including we are a by appointment only studio, our studio is small, you are a stranger, and sessions are closed and focused. We suggest you stop hesitating, don't be a stranger, sign up and actually do it for a number of weeks and see if you like it that way.

Private session package of 3 is our smallest package available at a cost of $310 and dependent on trainer availability. Text us for availability. We suggest you stop hesitating, sign up for the classes and actually do it for a number of weeks and see if you like it that way.

Q: Not going to be in town for beginning of classes but back at about the 2 week mark. Is that OK?

IF NEW to us - No, as we strongly prefer you to be with us for the beginning of the round and 2 to 3 weeks in before regularly missing classes. Much information is given in first few weeks and not fair to rest of the class when their workout is compromised because all must be re-explained to the newbie who showed up 2 weeks into the program. But feel free to sign up for the next round.

Q: I travel a lot and will miss like half the classes but I would like to have class available when I am in town. Is that OK?

No and Yes: Must pay for the full multi week package by 3rd session. Makeups are unlikely. If new to us - We require you to be with us for the beginning of the round and 2 to 3 weeks in before regularly missing classes. Much information is given in first few weeks and not fair to rest of the class when their workout is compromised because all has to be re-explained to the newbie who showed up 2 weeks into the program.

Q: Can I make up a missed session on another day ?

Possible - we will do our best to accommodate up to 2 (two) makeups each round yet it is HIGHLY UNLIKELY. We have been getting fully booked with an actual waiting list for some classes meaning there is no availability in other time slots for a make up to occur. Please, do not feel entitled to a make up class - you missed the class - not us.

Q: How do I request make up session availability?

Great Question. A make up request can occur AFTER the 2nd week of the round you signed up for. Makeup requests are for classes that have been missed but not for classes going to be missed. Please DO NOT ask trainer in class, before class or after class, about needing a makeup session. Trainer does not know day to day availabilities. After the first 2 weeks and only after the 2 weeks - Please TEXT Management (928 seven three 3 eight 4 88) any request for make up classes at the Crazy Ed Phone number, Response can take up to 3 days. Do not expect same day response. Please, do not feel entitled to a make up class - you missed the class - not us.

Q: What is the TEXT number for Management?

Please TEXT Management (928 seven three 3 eight 4 88) for your make up requests.

Q: I have medical issues that affect my ability and strength - can I do the classes?

Feel free to email us your concerns and limitations and we will be happy to consider your situation. Having said that please note - these are not easy workouts for active beginners and as an active beginner you will be challenged form day one. These are small group sessions but a group none the less meaning only a few minutes of attention given on an individual basis

Q: I regularly get dizzy with or without nausea - can I do your classes?

Probably not - especially if its a regular issue - feel free to email us your concerns and limitations and we will be happy to consider your situation however - probably not.

Q: Did you know?

When it comes to Pilates - Ed has worked with, trained under, and learned from the best of them - From Hemmingway to Brugman and even The Queen of Pilates, Mari Winsor - . In fact, Ed had one of the last opportunities to work with Mari of Winsor Pilates on a senior Pilates exercise program she was doing for Time-Life.
