[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pricing situation does leave a bad taste in my mouth. Though I also recognize that a large number of people attending these classes in DC are price-insensitive. I see them fancy handbags, ladies.

The pricing change impacts the dedicated price-sensitive frequent fliers the most. I bet that they won't sell as many of those new $$ monthly packages as they did the set class packages. I'm also disappointed that there seems to be this large emphasis on expansion. When you go to the website, the main message is all about expansion and... this feels out of touch to me? I personally don't give a sh*t if they're opening a place in Minnesota, Baltimore, or Indiana. I would much prefer that they remain focused on what they already have by getting the best instructors (paying them well!), maintaining the studios AND not bumping up the rates so darn much in a disingenuous way.

Another interesting layer is with optics. In terms of class composition, I bet that these price-sensitive frequent users elevate the classes.  I might be off base, but my game improves when I feel like I'm surrounded by amazingly competent badass folks taking the class.  I feel a little deflated when the class is filled with newbies because I've noticed that instructors have recently started to accommodate new client needs over prioritizing challenging instruction.  This may just be my experience though!  [/quote]

Ugh. I love solidcore but this is the kind of comment that really puts me off some of the people who go. What makes you think price-sensitive v. Price insensitive people "elevate" the class? Isolidcore classmates  were likely very inviting and positive with you when you were a newbie (they were with me), but you no.longer reciprocate?  If you are really as experienced as you claim, newbies don't stop you from getting a challenging workout. You know how to modify to make it harder, ask for more springs, weights, slow it down, etc. Instead of looking for the badass, be the badass. The instructors all take classes with us. And yet most of us are mewling little kittens compared to them. Yet they still come and get on their toes for moves the rest of us cannot. If it bothers you so much, just start going to the first class of the day. You are unlikely to see newbies there.[/quote]
