Whether you’ve made it to a workout at Tiny Fitness or just considered it over the years, I extend my thanks! Our studio is indeed tiny, and we depend on your support to keep our group classes going.
Starting March 14, our group fitness classes will be moving online. We will still have in-studio classes when possible, concurrent with the online streams.
To join us for an online class:
- head to tinyfitnesshouston.com/schedule and sign in for the online class you want to join, at least 30 min prior to the class start time. Online classes will be indicated by “ONLINE” in the class name – we may have concurrent online and in-studio classes when possible. When you sign in for class, please use an email address that you actually check, because I will be contacting you there to send you the class link.
- About 15 minutes before the class start time, check your email for the Google Meet connection info. You can participate in class from your phone, computer, or tablet.
- If you’re joining us for Zumba…I mean, Latin Cardio Dance… or HIIT cardio, just clear a space (preferably without carpet) and get ready to party! For bootcamp, grab your mat, dumbbells, and yoga block or rolled up towel if you have one.
- If it’s 5 min before class and you’re having any issues connecting, text me if you have my number or call the studio at 8327303048 (voice calls only).
FAQ
- Will this be weird?
I don’t think so; I’ve had online personal training clients for 4 years, and I trained folks online in a different way in the tech sector for many years prior to that.
- What will my pet think?
That this is weird. Now’s your chance to prove them wrong! - Are the classes pre-recorded?
Nope – a Tiny Fitness instructor will be teaching live during the scheduled class time. No recording or rebroadcasting is permitted. - Do I need an app?
Yes, but it’s free: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hangouts/id643496868 or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.talk&hl=en should help with that, or you will be prompted to download the app when you click the class link I send you. - Do I need a google account?
Yes if you want to see the video; you can call in with the provided audio conference call info if you just want to hear the cues for HIIT or bootcamp. - Can everyone see me?
Not if you don’t want them to – you can hide your video feed (and – please – mute your audio to avoid mic feedback). - Is this how online personal training works, too?
Kinda – I train over facetime, whatsapp, YouTube, facebook messenger, google hangout, or however you prefer to connect. If you haven’t tried it, I’m offering 2 30-minute sessions for $40 until the end of 2020 (contact me for details). - I already purchased passes for in-studio classes but I want to attend class online. Should I email you for help with that?
Yes – I will convert your class credits for you! - I’ve never taken class with Tiny Fitness before. Is there anything else I need to do?
Yes! I need you to sign a waiver before we start. Always honor your body and work at your level!
I look forward to seeing you soon, one way or another! As always, our class schedule online and on the free MindBody app is updated every 5 minutes and ready for you to sign in any time.
