This document outlines the key policies and agreements for members of Crowns Gym Beckenham.

By signing below, you confirm your understanding and acceptance of these terms.

1. Agreement to Terms and Conditions
   It is a condition of us allowing you to obtain a Membership and/or enter our Facility that you agree to our Terms and Conditions.
   By obtaining a Membership or otherwise physically entering the Studio, you agree to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, you will not be able to obtain a Membership or enter the Facility.
2. Amendments to Terms and Conditions
   These Terms and Conditions can be amended by Crowns Gym Beckenham at any time. We will notify you in writing of any changes via email, on our website, or otherwise at the facility. You should familiarise yourself with these Terms and Conditions and check for updates regularly.
3. Refusal of Entry or Ejection
   Crowns Gym reserves the right to refuse entry to or eject you from our facility for safety reasons or any other reason. Owners and/or instructors reserve the right to turn clients away if they do not have the correct medical clearance.
4. Participation at Own Risk
   Participating in any form of exercise at our facility is done entirely at your own risk. Members are advised to seek medical advice prior to commencing any exercise program if they are in any doubt about their ability to engage in exercise.
5. Health and Medical Information
   You must inform any instructor if there is any risk to your health by participating in any activity, including but not limited to existing injuries, muscle soreness or discomfort, and pregnancy prior to commencement. If you have a medical condition, we strongly advise that you seek approval from a medical practitioner to participate in any classes. Participation in exercise with a medical condition is done entirely at your own risk.
6. Personal Belongings
   We are not responsible for the safekeeping of your personal belongings. We recommend that you only bring items which are necessary for the duration of your visit.
7. Changes to Studio Opening Hours
   We reserve the right to change our opening hours at any time without notice to you. You will be notified of any permanent changes to our opening hours.
8. Third-Party Client Management Software
   We use a third-party client management software known as “Glofox.” Payment must be made prior to making a booking. All bookings are made via the Glofox platform or the Crowns Gym website. To create a Membership or book a class, your personal information will be provided to Glofox. The collection and use of personal information by Glofox is governed by Glofox’s privacy policy.
9. Class Minimum and Cancellations
   A minimum of two people is required for a class to proceed. You will be contacted via text, phone, or email 2 hours prior to the start of class should it need to be cancelled, and your session will be refunded.
   If a class is full, you can sign up for the waitlist. If a spot becomes available, you will be notified by email or text offering you a place in the class. You have 2 hours to accept the position; otherwise, the spot will be offered to the next client.
10. Lateness and Refunds
    Out of consideration for the instructor and other clients, please do not be late. If you are more than 5 minutes late for a class, your spot may be given to a waitlisted or standby client, and you may not be able to attend. There will be no refunds if you miss a class due to lateness.
11. Crowns Memberships and Prices
    Please refer to our Third-Party Client Management Software GloFox for latest updates on membership prices. Packs and Sessions are non-refundable and non-transferable. Packs can be extended if you are injured, in which case a medical certificate will be required. Extensions due to medical reasons must be requested before the expiry date.
12. Single Class Purchases
    Single session purchases are valid for 1 month from the purchase date. Sessions are non-refundable and non-transferable.
13. Non-transferable Sessions
    Sessions cannot be transferred to another individual and cannot be used by another person. If someone other than you has booked into the class and arrives to use the session, they will be asked to create an account and purchase their own session.
14. Gift Vouchers
    Gift Vouchers can be used for memberships or fitness classes. Gift Vouchers may also be distributed as part of a marketing or promotional campaign. Gift Vouchers are non-transferable, not redeemable for cash, and expire by the date specified. We are not responsible for the loss or theft of Gift Vouchers, and unredeemed balances are non-refundable.

    By entering Crowns Gym Beckenham, you agree to release Crowns Gym from all claims relating to membership, participation in any class, or from otherwise entering the Studio. To the extent permitted by law, Crowns Gym will not be liable for injury, illness, damage, or loss sustained in relation to membership or participation in any class.
    In the event that Clause 15 is not enforceable, Crowns Gym’s maximum aggregate liability shall not exceed the membership fees paid by you in the past 12 months.
16. Indemnity
    You agree to indemnify Crowns Gym from all direct, reasonable, and quantifiable loss or damage suffered by Crowns Gym as a result of you breaching these Terms and Conditions.
