The classes at 121 Fitness are designed to be safe and challenging. Please remember these guidelines:

- -Wear comfortable attire and proper footwear.
- -Give your body time to adapt to the exercise.
- -Drink water before, during and after exercise to prevent dehydration and muscle cramps.
- -If you arrive late or leave early, remember the importance of the warm-up, cool-down and stretch.
- -Please do not enter if 15 or more minutes late.
- -Please notify your instructor if you have any special concerns, i.e., pregnancy, diabetes, fasting, surgery, etc., so modifications can be explained.
