• REGISTRATION, POLICIES & FAQs:

BeMoved® & Gentle BeMoved® classes run in three – ten week series.

Series fees for BeMoved® are $18/one class/wk & $15/class for each two classes/wk ($30), or $14/class for each three classes/wk ($42), $13/one class/wk private group rates.

See the schedule for Gentle BeMoved® rates. 

Drop-in Fee is $25 

Any Spring 2020 8 wk Series purchases not used due to COVID-19 will be honored, and can be used towards the purchase of any series thereafter.

Any punch cards purchased before August 16th., 2015 will be honored and can be used towards the purchase of any series thereafter.

• How to register OR just Drop In, geographically in the space, or two way virtually – body to body silly, we are more than faces!!!

Register prior to the start of each series by emailing Mary at marychoreographer@gmail.com to make sure there is room.

You can pay if coming to a space geographically 10 minutes before any class at any location. I accept cash, check (made out to Mary Heller, or BeMoved), or credit/debit card with a small fee.

Pay by paypal (instructions at bottom of any class page).

Pay by mail. Email Mary for address. Payment must be received before first class.

Upcoming series are on each location’s class page, and homepage, and always up to date for your convenience.

• Policies:

No refunds or make-ups are given at this time, however, credit of any classes missed up to August 2021 can be made up in future series. 

Making up missed classes – Rent, yearly license, every other year re-certification, insurance, accounting, PR/marketing, music licenses fee’s, and administration is all done by myself. Due to caps changing on how many people can geographically take a class 2020 to currently, in a space, according to state/county of Arizona COVID declarations, missed classes cannot be refunded to allow the business to remain open, and to be fair to those who come on a consistent basis to allow enough people to hold a class.

Drop-ins are always welcome where it does not say “Full”, or “registration is required” for that class on the schedule. The schedule is always up to date.

• Group Rates:

If registering as a part of a group you must register identifying yourself as part of that group before a series begins to obtain the group rate. However, if a group just found out about the class, they can join a class session anytime if space allows. Contact Mary to find out. Pro-rating, credit of classes for medical emergencies, and using one’s group rate purchase to take the same class in another location from Mary are not eligible for group rate purchases. People form all kinds of groups from the obvious work/employee groups, to a “place/Home Owners Association” group made up of people who work, and live there.

Once you dance together over time consistently, your work, community living area, large extended family, athletic team, or whatever your “group” consists of, WILL feel better outside of class. Happens all the time, and has so for millions of years…until recently in the last 130 years when we all forgot to keep doing this.

• Class cancellations:

Weather-related cancellations will be posted at least one hour prior to class on the class page, and homepage of this website, and on my Facebook page under “Mary Heller” who lives in Prescott, AZ.

• FAQs:
– Why do you ask people to commit to series versus offering punch cards?

For most of us, we plan to attend our favorite classes on a fairly regular basis—except on dates when we know ahead of time we have a conflict, or if, unexpectedly, something comes up to prevent our attendance. We all know that consistency is key to increasing our sense of fitness and well being. By signing up for a series we add fuel to our intentions, and turn our plans into reality. I will allow make-ups into future Series at some point. For now, due to expenses rising, and planning, I am unable to provide make-up’s after August 2021. Anyone can make-up classes within the Series of their purchase.

– I won’t be able to attend every class during the series. Do I have to pay the drop-in fee?

Anyone planning to attend fairly regularly during a series qualifies for the series fee prices. The Drop-in fee applies to someone who will most likely only come a couple of times or so during a series. Perhaps you aren’t sure when you can come. Dropping in is a good way to come. Someone trying the class for the first time, is another example. There are FREE classes I hold twice a year, so sign up for the newsletter to know when! Email Mary if you are unsure which fee applies to your situation.

– Is there a dress code for BeMoved or Gentle BeMoved classes? Do I need special shoes?

No. There is no dress code. Whatever you wear to the gym is what you should wear to BeMoved. In class, you’ll see gym shoes, running shoes, hip hop sneakers, socks and bare feet. We leave it up to you. Space owners and myself simply ask that if you do wear shoes, that they are dedicated for indoor exercise, clean, and are not worn outside. This helps to protect the floors in the spaces, and to keep them clean.
