This is so sad since the workout is SO effective. Any recs on other classes/places to try?

I come out drenched in sweat and its 9.50 a class for a walk in or 8/ a class with a punch card. I just decide what Im willing to pay per fitness class and leave when it extends that because there is SO SO SO much competition in this arena there is always something else.
trend not tree lol

Who do we send feedback to? Studio managers?
I agree the email was incredibly badly done. Couching it as based on feedback? Your clientele is educated and not buying it. Wonder if they're expanding too fast.

In my experience the Studio Managers don't seem to have a lot of pull and may or may not pass concerns along--I could be wrong. Maybe trying to email someone at corporate? I don't know who...is the founder's email still on the website?

I could manage the prices by buying a 40 pack when they had a sale. They haven't had a sale in months, and now a monthly unlimited is $400. That's insane. Debating how best to give them this feedback. I absolutely love it, but this just pisses me off.
+1. I have noticed they say they listen to feedback, but they definitely don't seem to listen to any feedback from the people I know that have recently tried to give them feedback. I am so sad, I really love the workout, but I can't justify paying the new prices. I know it is a business and they need to make money, but I'm not sure this is going to have the intended effect. I hope you are able to give them the feedback and that they listen. I think they are going to lose a lot of loyal clients over this.

yep. 10 pack off-peak is gone.
Now it's $27/off peak class

Did they get rid of the 10 pack off-peak? It's NOT worth $37/class, and I'm a devotee. It's just not.

I noticed that too, although I mainly do off peak. They changed it over the weekend because on Saturday night I was signing up for classes and needed to buy a new set and the 10 pack off peak wasn’t an option anymore.
I go to the one in OT which has a pretty solid off peak following so hopefully they won’t cut classes or jack up off peak prices. But they did change off peak packages too.

Does anyone have suggestions for similar classes in the area?

I woke up this morning to the email regarding pricing and was so upset! I typically go 3-4 times a week and spend $25.50/class based on the 40 pack and 12% off. Even that is too much! I've been waiting for another sale, but there haven't been any! I could logistically go to all off peak, but they just got rid of the 10-pack of off peak. Ive been so loyal for 2 years, but am now so upset at this. I feel completely taken advantage of. It is probably time to move on. I was actually looking for other type of classes this morning. So upset.

Anyone else notice they just jacked their prices? I *love* solidcore, but this change is completely uncool. They raised their rates too much, too fast. Just wondering if anyone else noticed and is grumpy about it like me.
