new studio FAQs
-
Q. What's the timeline?
A. The City of Washougal approved our permit on Monday, April 21, 2025!
The contractors estimate a Summer delivery to complete the build.
I will make an announcement via our newsletter and on social media.
-
Q. Will pricing be the same?
A. YES! Except for the monthly unlimited membership.
We will still have 5-10-20 Class Packs and drop-ins, but the monthly unlimited membership will most likely go away and be revisited further down the line. This is mostly due to our occupancy rating.
If/when we add more classes to the roster, this will impact class packs/memberships (for the better!).
-
Q. Will the schedule be the same?
A. For the most part. I am still on orders with the US Coast Guard thru September, so I don’t anticipate the Tues/Fri 11a class on the schedule immediately. Mari will likely go down to 1-2 classes/month due to her recent move.
I plan on searching for new teachers to supplement our schedule.
-
Q. What will the class sizes be?
A. Our occupancy rating will be TEN (10). That means 9 students : 1 teacher.
Because of this, I am temporarily eliminating the monthly unlimited membership so we can afford more students the opportunity to practice. I understand there may be some push-back on this decision. I will revisit class attendance/packages after the first 6 months. -
Q. Will your cancellation policy be the same?
A. YES. We will cancel classes 12hrs before if there aren’t enough pre-registrations OR due to inclement weather. We will continue to follow the Washougal SD for studio closings due to weather.
In an effort to stay competitive in the market, I will be increasing teacher pay, which means the minimum class size will increase to 3 (from 2).
Due to smaller class sizes, PRE-REGISTRATION WILL BE REQUIRED. -
Q. Are you still going to have props?
A. OF COURSE. My intention is that this new space is directly reflective of what you are familiar with.
-
Q. Are you going to offer your signature workshops?
A. HECK YES!
I hope to bring back Monthly Touch, TRANSITIONS, Solstice(s), and New Years events!
