FAQ
Frequently asked questions
General
Who can do Pilab?
Our classes are designed for every fitness level, from beginners to seasoned movers. Every session includes modifications and progressions, so you can grow confidently in your practice. With intentionally small classes, our certified instructors give you personal guidance, so your movement is both safe and effective.
If you live with chronic back pain, joint discomfort or a complex medical condition, we recommend starting with a private session so we can assess your needs and tailor the experience to your body.
Do I need to book ahead?
Yes. Booking is required for every class because our groups are intentionally small. For an easier experience, download the Pilab app and manage your schedule on the go.
How do I sign up?
Book online through Mindbody or in the Pilab app. Booking opens 7 days in advance, giving you time to plan your visits. For members, it opens 8 days in advance.
Is there an age requirement?
You must be 16 or older to join group classes. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian’s signed consent is required before your first session.
Do you have showers and lockers?
Yes. There are two private showers, each locking individually: one for women only and one unisex. The studio also has two locker rooms, one for women and one for men, stocked with the essentials to freshen up after class.
Where can I park?
There is plenty of parking around Pilab. You will find several spaces on the street, right in front of the studio. Just across the street, diagonally, is the free public lot run by the Town of Saint-Sauveur.
Class policies
Can I arrive late?
To keep every class focused and uninterrupted, late arrivals are not permitted: doors are locked when class starts. Doors open 10 minutes before class, and we recommend arriving at least 10 minutes early to settle in.
What is your cancellation policy?
You can cancel any class free of charge up to 8 hours before it starts, by logging into your account online. If you cancel less than 8 hours before class, or miss your session without notice, the class credit is deducted from your account.
Can I use my phone during class?
Phones are allowed in the studio, but please keep them on silent and use them discreetly. Avoid anything that might disturb others or compromise their privacy. Help us keep the space calm and respectful for everyone.
The class is full. How does the waitlist work?
Join the waitlist: spots often open up.
A waitlist booking counts just like a regular reservation, so if you are on the waitlist we assume you are available to attend. You can remove yourself from the waitlist at any time, without penalty, if your plans change.
You can be added to a class up to 2 hours before it starts. If a spot opens:
- More than 8 hours before class: you are added automatically and notified by text or email. If you can no longer attend, you can cancel without penalty as long as you are still outside the 8-hour window.
- Less than 8 hours before class: you are also added automatically and notified. At this point the late cancellation policy applies, and you cannot cancel without losing your class credit.
In some cases, payment may be required to hold your waitlist spot. If you are not added to the class, your credit stays on your account for next time.
