**MEMBERSHIP UPDATE**
The following went out in an email Tuesday…
We miss you all and hope you’re doing well! First, let me just say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for hanging in there with us through this. We appreciate it more than you know.
Hopefully you’ve been utilizing some of the workouts we’ve been posting to keep active. There’s maybe never been a time when health and fitness has been more publicly relevant, and I think this is just the beginning. It’s certainly been a lot of fun to see everyone who’s been joining our virtual Zoom classes. While we’re still mostly in the dark on when we are going to be allowed to open, we do have some membership updates for you.
Beginning in June, all memberships will be reduced to rates that are more in line with what we’ve been able to offer during the lockdown, between equipment loans, workout programming, and online virtual classes: $125/month for individuals and $225/month for couples. Once we reopen, and rates return to normal, all members who also started the lockdown with us will remain at the reduced rates for as many months as they paid full price during the lockdown. For example, if you paid $195/mo for March, April, & May, $125 for June, and we open in July, you will remain at $125 for July, August, and September.
Hopefully this gives some clarity to the plan going forward. While we still don’t have much clarity around when we will be allowed to open, it’s probably safe to say the gym won’t be able to operate exactly like it did when we closed, at least not initially. But as soon as we have more information as to what the details around reopening will be, we will pass it along!
Once again, thank you for your continued support!
**OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS**
- VIRTUAL CLASS SCHEDULE: Our new virtual class schedule is rolling. And don’t knock it till you try it! The classes are surprisingly fun, super easy to connect to, allow you to hang with your RPM fam, and will 100% do the job of getting you fitter. Just click on the class time below you’d like to join at the time of the class and you’ll be brought right into the group! Ideally you’d have at least one strength tool (KB, DB, etc) and a jump rope. So if you don’t see the equipment lending program below, go get some!
- FREE WEEK TRIAL: If you’ve got friends who are gymless currently, have them join a virtual class with you. We’ll work around their equipment limitations if needed, or they can borrow some from us on a Monday to use during their free week. Just have them reach out the week prior to arrange the equipment pickup.
- EQUIPMENT BORROWING: The regular equipment pickup day is MONDAYS. Here’s how to do it… First email 809@rpmtraining.com with the subject line “Equipment Loan” with what you’d like to borrow the week or weekend prior. We will respond to your email with what items from your request can be accommodated and then place the equipment OUTSIDE on the patio on Monday, labeled with your name, between the hours of 2pm and 6pm, along with a log where you will need to sign the equipment out and agree to the terms. Please DO NOT enter the gym, ask to enter the gym, or ask for more items than what was agreed to in your reservation. We are simply complying with CDC recommendations and must adhere to this policy. Equipment loans will be limited to KBs, DBs, bars, plates, boxes, wall balls, flat mats, Abmats, ab wheels, bands, and jump ropes. And don’t worry, you can get seriously fit with this amount of gear. You can see exactly what’s available on this google doc. Requests will be granted in the order they are received.
