What will I be doing in class?
We offer a variety of class types. We recommend reading the class descriptions before registering.
How do I register for a class?
Click on 'find a class' and choose your location. Registration details can be found on the class schedule for the location you chose.
Can I try a class before registering?
If you are not sure about registering, feel free to drop-in. If you register for the whole session immediately after class, your drop-in fee will be applied to your registration fees.
What should I wear/bring to Prenatal Fitness?
Proper athletic footwear is mandatory in all our fitness classes. We also recommend investing in a well-fitting supportive sports bra. Dress in comfortable layers and bring a water bottle.
What should I wear/bring to Prenatal AquaFit?
Most women wear a swim suit with a sports bra underneath for added support. If you do not have a swim suit that fits, a sports bra and bikini bottom or board shorts works well.
Do I need to know how to swim well to go to an AquaFit class?
No, but you should be comfortable in chest height water or using a floatation device in deep water. Aqua Fitness is also referred to as vertical aquatic training. It is not a swimming class. For your safety, a life guard is always present.
What if I miss a class?
Each facility has its own make-up class policy. Please see your local Fit 4 Two® page for more information.
What is your refund policy?
Each facility has its own refund class policy. Please see your local Fit 4 Two® page for more information.
Can I register part way through a session?
Yes. We welcome new participants at any time. The facility will pro-rate your fees accordingly.
Can I register for the first half of a session?
This will depend on the registration policies of the facility but is not usually the norm.
Why did my class get cancelled?
We don't like to cancel classes but if we don't have minimum registration 48 hours before a start date, that's what we have to do. If you are planning on registering for a program, please avoid disappointment by registering early.
"The (prenatal fitness) classes were actual workouts and Dee did not treat us like delicate flowers, which I loved."
