Four Seasons Fitness Policies
As a member or guest, you acknowledge that you are physically able to engage in any activity, program or training provided, and agree that all exercises and use of this facility are taken at your sole risk.

To ensure a pleasant workout environment, please review the following items:
General Guidelines:
- Make sure you always warm-up your body prior to starting your exercise program. Warming up your muscles prior to exercise minimizes the risk of injury and will increase the effectiveness of your workout. A proper stretching routine will help control the adjustment between the muscles and connective tissue, which enables the body to meet the increased demands of your workout.
- For your safety and the safety of other members, our staff may make occasional recommendations on proper equipment usage and functional form during your performance of exercises.
- Solicitation of Four Seasons employees or members by other clubs or businesses is strictly prohibited and may result in immediate termination of membership without compensation.

- If a member receives three of these incident reports, they will be asked to leave the club therefore terminating their membership.
- Our club is especially concerned about guidelines that concern safety in the club, such as dropping dumbbells or barbells and leaving plates on equipment, or dumbbells around the floor. A member will be first warned, but if that person continues to endanger themselves, other members and create distractions, they will be asked to leave.
