Everything You Need To Know

You can start by downloading the Mindbody/Client app, creating an account with Highway 1 Fitness, purchasing a pass and signing a Waiver of Liability online or coming into our 225 Shoreline studio to sign a Waiver of Liability and purchase a pass that works best for you. Our front desk staff will assist you with the process.

If you have not yet purchased a pass, we ask that you arrive 15 minutes prior to your first class to fill out a Waiver of Liability, purchase a pass and introduce yourself to the instructor.

After filling out your form, later in the day, you will be sent an email from Highway 1 Studio to set yourself up with an account using your email and creating a password. We use the MindBody/ Client app (not business) for this process. Please check your junk or spam folder just in case!

This helps our instructors plan for their classes, guarantees you a spot in class and if for any reason your class is cancelled, you will be notified by email. If you are not enrolled in class, you will not receive the cancellation email, which might result in you showing up to the studio for a cancelled class.

Examples:  a sick instructor, possible power outage, condensed summer schedule, or the class being permanently removed from our schedule. We will do our best to find a sub for our classes. If you are signed up for a class, you will be sent an email announcement, and your name will be removed from the class so your pass will not be charged. This is why we encourage you to sign up in advance! If you were not, you would not receive the email announcement resulting in you showing up to the studio for a cancelled class.
