How to Navigate Our Pilates Booking System to Secure Your Favorite Classes
Pilates can be a fun and exciting way to add some energy to your week—but nobody wants to look forward to a workout only to find their favorite class is fully booked!
With a little smart planning and a few tips, you can make the most of Absolute Pilates' online booking system to secure your spot in the classes you love.
Whether you’re looking to build specific skills or enjoy time with your favorite instructor, Absolute Pilates makes booking easy and convenient.
You can always check the schedule online to see what’s available each day, but here are some additional tips to help you maximize your Pilates planning.
Book Classes Ahead of Time
Did you know you can sign up for classes days or even weeks in advance? Use Absolute Pilates' online booking system to reserve your spot in upcoming sessions and plan ahead for the instructors and class levels that work best for you.
If you’re new to Pilates or to Absolute Pilates, start with an Align class to build your foundation safely and confidently.
Once you’ve found the class and time that works for you, click Reserve to confirm your spot. From there, you can purchase a class package if needed and manage your schedule with ease. Prefer to book on the go? Use our mobile app for quick reservations anytime, anywhere.
At Absolute Pilates, there’s no limit to how many classes you can attend week—as long as you have available credits, you’re welcome to join as often as you’d like.
Use the Waitlist
If a class is full, don’t worry! Absolute Pilates’ automated waitlist makes it easier to snag a spot in your favorite sessions. You can join the waitlist and will be added to the class on a first-come, first-served basis if someone cancels.
Keep in mind:
If you’re already signed up for another class that overlaps with the waitlisted one, it’s your responsibility to cancel the initial class once you’re moved into the waitlisted spot.
Clients on the waitlist are moved into class as spaces open up. Up to the set lower limit of clients in a class (8-12 depending on the studio and teacher), the system moves people in automatically. If there is room for more people we move people in by hand as soon as we notice an opening. When you are moved into class the system sends an automated message to the email you provided and a push notice to your phone if you have them turned on for the app. If you opt out of receiving emails in our booking software, you will NOT receive these notices. Movement from waitlists is in chronological order based on how long you have been on the list.
We assume that if you are on the list you still want to attend, so if your plans change, please remove yourself from the waitlist. Also, there is a possibility that you will be moved into a morning class after the last time you check your e-mail the day before. Should you be unable to make it to class under those circumstances, or if you know you need more than 2 hours before class for most classes (8 hours before classes occurring before 8am), please remove yourself from the waitlist the last time you check your e-mail to see if you got in, this includes the last time you check before bed, please.
Fast-finger notification at 2 hours before class for most classes (8 hours before classes occurring before 8 am). If someone cancels last minute you will have the option to select the spot and the first client still on the waitlist to opt in first gets it. This way you are not automatically added to the class and you do not need to message us to cancel.
Check for Cancellations
If your desired class is full, check back periodically for openings. Many participants cancel more than 24 hours in advance to avoid losing a class credit, which means spots often open closer to the class date. Keep an eye on the schedule—especially on the day of the class—to grab any last-minute availability.
Explore Other Locations
Absolute Pilates offers classes at 2 locations, and your membership works across both of them. Flexibility with your location can help you find the classes and instructors that best fit your schedule.
Using the booking system, you can filter by location, class type, or instructor to find the perfect fit. If your preferred class is full at one studio, check availability at another nearby location. A little extra flexibility can go a long way!
