Each hour of training is just $10.
Open Gym Policies
Violations of any of the policies below will result in the Open Gym user being asked to leave, and future Open Gym privileges will be forfeited.
Open Gym students must not touch any rigging–Rigging is for staff only! No personal aerial equipment may be used. Aerial equipment will be set to a reachable height by our coaches and will not be able to be reset or adjusted by staff on the floor once the session has started.
