If you are a First time camper looking to continue with us as an ongoing member or a newly returning camper after a lengthy absence please read below carefully first as we are doing things a bit differently now like many businesses ‘post’ covid.
We are now registering returnee campers only by QUARTER instead of by 4 week session. Fall and Winter Quarters are 12 weeks long. Spring/Summer Quarter is 16 weeks. There are break weeks every 4-6 weeks depending on the quarter.
You can view our downloadable google calendar here to check out our full season schedule.
Registration is open now for our WINTER QUARTER out of our lovely indoor space at Lakewood-Seward Park Community Club. We do still go outside for portions of classes if the weather cooperates. Also Yoga with Julia Hibarger, our wonderful yoga instructor, is integrated now into the booty camp program and will be held EVERY OTHER WED during winter quarter.
Winter Quarter 2027 runs for 12 weeks from MON Jan 11 – THURS April 8 with a break week for President’ s Day week from Feb 15-18.
We have gone to a quarterly registration membership plan to help maintain and foster the container of our unique fitness camp community and puts the focus on longer term committed campers and a more stable container for the camp community. However, if you are a returnee seeing this after the quarter start please feel free to contact Jessica anytime to discuss an alternative entry point for your situation.
Most recently, in time for Winter Quarter 2027, we are ending the Full Time/Part Time categories and beginning a much simpler community supported booty business model with all days included in every tier of membership contribution.
Instead of paying per class, you’ll now pay a self assessed quarterly membership contribution and attend on the days that work for you.
You will never have to choose your days in MindBody when you register! Everyone will simply have access to all regular class sessions and no one will have to manage their days in the cumbersome Mindbody system.
We will still take attendance so we can track folks through illness/injuries/long vacations etc., but everyone will be on the roster for all days.
The following explains how memberships work and how we keep our community safe, supportive, and fun. Please give it a read, ask us anything, and when you register you will be reminded of the policies and asked to acknowledge them by initialing in Mindbody. We can’t wait to see you in class!
Membership Overview
Southside Booty Camp uses a Community Supported Booty Model and we offer quarterly memberships in 4 tiers listed below. Each tier includes access to all scheduled classes during the quarter. Memberships are non-transferable, non-assignable, and cannot be sold or shared. Any attempted transfer is void.
Here are the quarterly enrollment options by tier (**tax included in prices!**):
Sustainer Level:
$800 per 12 week Fall or Winter Quarter, $1050 per 16 week Spring/Summer Quarter – This covers the basic costs of operating and sustaining Southside Booty Camp. If all of our returnees chose this level we would be set… but! I want to offer options for all financial abilities. Note that the Sustainer Level is based on the current Part Timer rate with a small increase to keep up with the cost of living and doing business in Seattle.
Booster Level:
$950 per 12 week Fall or Winter Quarter, $1250 per 16 week Spring/Summer Quarter – This level covers the full cost of camp and supports the long-term sustainability and growth of Southside Booty Camp. If you are financially fortunate, this is your suggested fee. This level of contribution will lift up those in our community needing some assistance to participate and will sustain quality adaptive programming. Even greater contributions are welcomed for new equipment, updated technology, and website improvement funds this 20th season… such as $1050/$1350!
Subsidized Level:
$650 per 12 week Fall or Winter Quarter, $900 per 16 week Spring/Summer Quarter – Selected on a self-assessed basis, this is a subsidized contribution level for campers with a hardship that almost covers the basic costs of camp.
Scholarship Level
$450 per 12 week Fall or Winter Quarter, $650 per 16 week Spring/Summer Quarter – Selected on a self-assessed basis, this is a partial scholarship for campers experiencing financial hardship.
If your current hardship has left you short on funds, but you have time, skills and support available in exchange, there are also potential work study options to lower cost (in lieu of taking a hardship subsidy). Some possible roles are a Class Assistant for each class time (arrive slightly early for prep, take attendance, help welcome and settle in new campers, etc), Promotions and Social Media coordinator (lifting up Booty Camp in our community), and a future goal of a Booty Camp Event Coordinator. Other exchange ideas are possible as well depending on skills and needs to make this accessible for all. Please do inquire if you think any of these might be a match for you.

- Fees owed remain the member’s responsibility even if the member stops attending.
Renewal
- Memberships end at the close of the quarter. Members must re-enroll to continue, and current members will receive early notice and priority enrollment.
Price Changes
Prices may change annually. Members will be notified at least [30] days before a new quarter begins. Prices will not change during a quarter in progress.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
Membership Fees
Membership fees are charged per quarter and cover all scheduled classes during that quarter. Because membership is not billed per class, fees are not prorated or refunded for individual missed or cancelled classes.
Refunds Are Not Provided For:
- Dangerous Roads and Weather. If a class is cancelled due to unsafe weather conditions, no refund or credit will be issued. We do not offer credit for days when the elemental powers that be have rendered our roads unsafe for travel to camp or we have to cancel a camp day due to fire smoke or storm/snow/ice hazard. Final cancellation decisions will be sent in email by 5:30 am.
- Substitute instructors. Classes may be led by a substitute, including current longtime Booty Camp attendees, in the event of sudden instructor illness or injury. A substitute-led class is still considered a full class and is not eligible for a refund.
- Member absence. No refunds are provided for classes a member does not attend, for any reason.
Cancelling or Withdrawing Mid-Quarter
Members may withdraw at any time by written notice to the instructor. Fees for the current quarter are non-refundable, and no portion is prorated or credited.
On a case by case basis, lengthy absences for severe injury/health/or family emergency (those lasting longer than 2 weeks), may be eligible for credits towards the following quarter. You must contact us in writing within two weeks of the first day of absence and before the start of the next session to be considered for a special circumstances credit. We tend to be rather generous perhaps to a fault! …but it is best for the overall business and our ability to offer scholarships and respond to serious needs if we can keep credit reserved for the longer and more serious situations. We ask that you consider this when requesting.
Full Refunds Are Provided When:
- The business cancels a class or program before the quarter begins. In that case, members will receive a full refund within 15 days of the cancellation notice.
Missed Payments and Default
Failure to follow this manual, including failure to pay on time, may result in suspension or termination of the membership. If the business is flexible on one occasion, such as accepting a late or partial payment, that does not waive the right to require full and timely payment later.
Attendance Policy
- Membership includes access to all scheduled classes during the quarter. Members are welcome to attend as often as they like.
- Memberships are for the named member only and are non-transferable.
- Please arrive on time. Late arrivals will miss the warm-up, which is important for safety.
- If you are unable to attend, no notice is required, but a heads-up is appreciated if you will be missing for a long period of time.
- Missed classes cannot be credited, refunded, or carried over to future quarters.
- Class schedules are subject to change, and any updates will be communicated by email.
Conduct and Conflict Policy
Our Commitment
This class is built on mutual respect, safety, and encouragement. Every member deserves to feel welcome and able to focus on their workout. All members are expected to help maintain that environment.
What We Encourage
The strength of this class is its community. Members are encouraged to:
- Welcome new people. Introduce yourself, invite newcomers to set up near you, and help them feel at home from their first class.
- Encourage each other. Celebrate effort, progress, and personal milestones, no matter where anyone is in their fitness journey.
- Offer gentle, appropriate form support. If you notice someone struggling with form and the moment is right, a friendly tip or a quick word to the instructor is welcome. Please keep suggestions brief and kind, and defer to the instructor on corrections. If you are unsure, let the instructor handle it.
- Respect different levels and abilities. Everyone works at their own pace, and modifications are always okay.
- Support the class atmosphere. Arrive ready to participate, follow safety directions, and help keep the space positive and focused. Be aware of when instruction is being delivered and pause side conversations to hear instructions.
- Speak up kindly. If something doesn’t feel right, bring it to the instructor privately so it can be addressed.
Examples of Unacceptable Behavior
- Harassment of any kind toward instructors, members, or guests, including verbal, written, physical, or online conduct, and including unwelcome comments about a person’s body, appearance, abilities, or personal life.
- Repeated class disruption, such as ongoing disruptive conversation, ignoring instructor safety directions, or behavior that interferes with others’ ability to participate.
- Other disrespectful behavior that, in the sole judgment of the instructor, undermines the safety, comfort, or enjoyment of the class community.
How Concerns Are Handled
- In most cases, the instructor will first address concerns with a private conversation or verbal warning.
- Serious behavior, such as harassment or anything that threatens safety, may result in immediate action without prior warning.
- Members who have a concern about another member’s behavior are encouraged to bring it to the instructor privately.
Membership Cancellation
The instructor reserves the right to suspend or cancel any membership, at any time, for violations of this policy. When a membership is cancelled for conduct reasons:
- No refund will be issued, including for any unused portion of the quarter.
- The member may not attend classes or related events.
- Decisions are made at the instructor’s discretion and are final.
Re-enrollment
Members whose memberships are cancelled under this policy are not eligible to re-enroll unless approved by the instructor in writing.
Health and Safety
- Members should consult a physician before beginning an exercise program.
- Members are responsible for telling the instructor about any injury, pregnancy, or condition that may affect participation.
- Exercise involves inherent risk of injury. Members participate voluntarily and may modify or stop at any time.
