Some members have brought some questions to my attention, which I thought were valid & worth sharing with you since you may have the same questions yourself.
Is the name changing?
Yes. Evolution is evolving to RealFit Studios. Evolution is a company and a brand that I am very proud of, but while I focus on what fires me up (launching RealFit.tv), it's just too much to run TWO full time companies. RealFit is another fitness company with a similar vision & mission, but just a different delivery method. I'd like to revisit "Evolution" in the future as a possible franchise opportunity. Just not now, not at this time in my life. Especially when I've found a beautiful way to merge the two staying right where we are in Haskell. You get the classes & instructors you love, I get to film some of mine - it's the best of both worlds.
Can I still use the weight room and cardio area?
Yes. Here are the hours of operation:
Mon, Wed & Fri: 8am - 1pm & 4pm - 9pm
Tues & Thurs: 5:30am - 1pm & 4pm - 9pm
Sat & Sun: 8am - 2pm
Can I still take my favorite classes with my favorite instructors?
Yes. The tentative group schedules are posted outside the group studio & in the hallway outside the spin room. The only classes that are being filmed are a few of mine (they are in the orange blocks) + I've added 2 bonus classes to be filmed (tentatively) Tuesdays & Thursdays at 4:30 when the studio is free.
Is it true the RealFit.tv workouts are going to replace our instructors, so we follow along to a television & not a real person?
No way! I LOVE the REAL group environment & want you to continue to experience the real deal here. Working out with your friends to awesome tunes lead by your favorite instructors - just how you have grown to love it like I do! Like I said in my last email, I am merging the two! This is the best of both worlds.
However, I would consider providing this during our "off times" when nothing is going on in the studio. It might be nice to be able to go in there at noon on a Tuesday (for example) & do a quick lunchtime workout on your terms. ;-)
Side note: There is power in group fitness & my mission here is to share that with the world through the internet. So, although people at home may be too intimidated to come to a REAL class, I can still do my part to bring that energy to them in the comfort of their home. My hope is that at some point they venture out to a nearby club so they can participate for REAL too. :-)
How many people can participate in the filmed classes?
There will be a limit to the # of people who are in each filming, but I have not yet determined what the limit will be for each class. I am saying 12 for now, but that may not be true for all filmed classes. I'll keep you posted as we film more test videos & find out for sure.
What if I have money on my account when we switch the studio over?
We will apply the money toward your next month's billing.
What if I have unused Personal Training sessions?
No problem. It will be seamless. We still have our trainers for you to work with & more are coming on board.
Will my rate be changing?
No. Because you are a member now, even if you are a trial member, we are grandfathering your rate in. If however, you decide to cancel & rejoin later, you will be subject to our new rate. As long as new members (such as your friends or family) join by July 3rd, they can take advantage of our current rates & offers. July 5th, the rate will be $75/month for newcomers (or they can purchase a class package).
