FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

No dance experience is necessary! All of our beginner classes are taught in a supportive environment with lots of instruction and repetition so that everyone can master each move or trick.

No way! We believe that dance is for every body. We strive to make our classes accessible and consistently offer modifications and progressions to movements as needed.

There is no weight limit! We use professional-grade equipment that is regularly inspected and maintained, and are committed to staff training to ensure our classes are accessible to clients no matter their size, fitness level, or abilities.

Yes, all of our classes at MMC are co-ed. We welcome everyone into our space who has a genuine desire to move and dance!

MMC offers dance and movement classes for adults 18+ and emancipated minors only.

Visit the online schedule to sign up for classes. The registration process will prompt you to create an account with WellnessLiving, where you can purchase a single drop-in, class pass, or membership. We highly recommend that you download the WellnessLiving Achieve App to make booking and accessing easier!

All classes on our weekly schedule are drop-in, meaning you don't have to commit to a specific class each week! This offers flexibility for those who are unavailable to attend regular classes, or for those who want to try different classes each week.

While you are welcome to attend classes on a walk-in basis, we encourage you to sign up in advance as classes must have a minimum of three participants to run six hours before class starts.

The length of our weekly classes can vary from 60-75 minutes.

You may arrive 15 minutes before the start of class! We will not allow students to join who are greater than 10 minutes late to reduce the risk of injury and avoid distraction of fellow students and instructors.

Check-in at the front desk for classes, or with your instructor. When you check-in, you might be notified of additional waivers or contracts that need to be signed, or that you have a balance on your account that needs to be paid. We like for you to check-in with a live person so we can say hello and ask how you’re doing!

Member is required to give a minimum of 6-hour notice to MMC if the member cannot attend the scheduled class. If less than 6-hour notice is given, the class will be forfeited. Unlimited memberships will be charged a $15 cancellation fee for each late cancellation or no-show.

Any unused classes will be forfeited at the end of the month; unused classes to not carry over to the following month. 

We require a 30-day notice to terminate limited monthly memberships. Requests for termination of membership must be made in writing and submitted to midmovecollective@gmail.com. Refunds are not guaranteed.

Unlimited memberships are billed on a 6 or 12-month basis. The member's access to classes will cease immediately if the membership is cancelled before the end of the term, and any monthly fees paid before cancellation will not be refunded. As well, a termination fee of half of the remaining balance of the total membership fee (termination fee) will be charged. Termination fees will be automatically deducted from your credit card upon cancellation.

Our workshops and events are non-refundable and cannot be transferred or combined with any other discounts.

All of our class descriptions include recommendations of what to wear for different classes, but mostly we want you to be comfortable! Regardless of gender, we ask that all students wear clothing that covers their genitals and nipples entirely, and choose clothing that reduces accidental nudity and exposure. We accept clothing choices on all bodies that make you and the studio community safe and comfortable.

Always bring a water bottle! We do not sell bottled water at the studio, as a commitment to reducing plastic waste and boycotting water bottling companies.

Your dancing shoes! If your class requires footwear of any kind, we ask that you carry your dance shoes in and change into them in the lobby: we don’t wear street shoes in the studios.

Layers! We recommend dressing in layers you can shed as you warm up and get moving. Some classes can benefit from having sleeves, long pants, or socks if the choreography takes you onto the floor. Clothing recommendations are included in all of our class descriptions on our website and in Wellness Living (our booking software).

Other items we’ve seen folks bring: personal sweat towel, grip aids for aerial equipment, a phone tripod for recording choreography at the end of class, snacks for between classes.

We have storage cubbies in all of our studios: leave your street shoes in the lobby, and carry your other items into the studio where your class is taking place to store them in a cubby. We encourage you to put electronic devices on silent if they’re in your bag/in the studio with you.

We keep a number of things on-hand for you to use at the studio: yoga mats (5mm, 6mm and 7mm, as well as extra long/extra wide mats), yoga props (blocks and straps), small sweat rags/equipment cleaning rags, equipment cleaning spray, and sound systems that are bluetooth capable.

You are welcome to bring your phone into the studio, but we ask that it is set to silent and stored in a cubby during your class. If you are on your phone during class, an instructor may ask you to put it away to refocus on class, for your safety and to ensure the safety and positive experience of others in your class.

It is up to individual instructors whether they allow phone usage in class, including photos and recordings. We ask that regardless of an instructor’s class preferences, that you always ask for consent before taking photos and videos if other clients are present and might be captured in your photo/video. Furthermore, if you plan to post photos or videos online or share them publicly, we insist that you ask for additional consent from classmates. This policy is to ensure that we always prioritize the comfort, privacy, and expectations of others, and guarantee that the studio is safe for all users.

Water is welcome in the entire studio - we ask that you consume snacks and non-water beverages in the lobby or lounge, to avoid accidents and messes. Our studio sells snack options, but not beverages. However, you can refill your water bottle from the fountain in the lobby.

The studio has ample parking right in front of our entrance, in a free lot. If the lot is full, there is street parking on Ionia, directly behind the studio. There is public transportation available along the 52 off Monroe through Ride the Rapid. Grand Rapids also offers a bike and scooter rental system.

All clients and staff members are encouraged to wear a mask if desired. If we are made aware of a COVID case at the studio, we will contact clients who might be affected and encourage them to test themselves before returning to the studio.
