2.2 Memberships

At Mom in Balance you can choose from the following 3 ongoing memberships:

• A monthly membership;

• A 3-month membership;

As a member you have the possibility to change the workout types within your membership. You can also change between a once a week membership and an unlimited membership. We can arrange this change per the 1st of the next month. You can request this in your personal member account. 

Once you have gone through the 3 or 12 active months of your membership, your membership is automatically renewed into a monthly membership with the same price.

Before starting a membership you can participate in one trial lesson.

You sign up for a membership through the registration form on the website of Mom in Balance. The membership can be concluded once you agree with our general terms and conditions. We will always send you a confirmation through email.

5.1  Terminate  

Once the duration of your membership has expired, you can terminate your membership. For all memberships we have a notice period of one month. You can arrange the termination of your membership in your personal Mom in Balance account. 

5.2  Becoming a member again

If you’ve been a member before and you register for a membership again, a new effective period will start based on the associated prices and conditions. You cannot claim any membership conditions you enjoyed previously. 

6.1 Six-week recovery period after your pregnancy

Your membership will freeze for 6 weeks from your due date onwards. No payment will take place during this 6-week childbirth freeze. In case your delivery date is different from your due date, please let us know. We will adjust your childbirth freeze according to this date. 

After 6 weeks your membership will be activated and changed into the Back in Shape workout. Automatic payment will start again. 

In case you need more time for your recovery we can postpone the start of your Back in Shape for a maximum of 12 weeks after your delivery date. Please let us know if you want to postpone your starting date 2 days before your Back in Shape membership is activated again.  

6.2 Freezing due to special circumstances

In case you are sick, have an injury or any pregnancy-related complaints we can freeze your membership for you. When your membership is frozen you cannot attend our workouts and no payment will take place. Your membership can be frozen for a maximum of 3 months. After, your membership will be activated again. You can request the freezing of your membership in your personal Member account. If you want to freeze due to an injury immediate (vs with one month notice) make sure to share your medical document.

6.3 Holidays

You can only freeze your membership for a minimum of 4 weeks. Please send us an e-mail (info@mominbalance.pt) with one month notice with the exact dates you would like to freeze your membership for. 

When signing up for a membership you give permission for payment to take place using direct debit. Your membership fee will be charged to the IBAN specified by you in the registration form. The amount will be invoiced monthly by Mom in Balance at the start of your membership period. 

If payment has failed, for example due to insufficient balance or a reversed charge, we will send you a reminder with our IBAN so you can pay your membership fee. Alternatively, Mom in Balance will attempt to collect the membership fee again after one month.

In case of an injury or sickness,  you must inform us as soon as possible, by sending an email to info@mominbalance.pt and attaching proof from your doctor . Your membership will be fronze from the day of notification and in this period you will not receive invoices. 

8.1  Cancel workout 

Only in case of extremely poor weather or illness of the trainer there is a possibility your workout will be cancelled. If this is the case Mom in Balance will inform you about this at least an hour before the start of your workout. Cancellation, merger, or relocation of a workout does not lead to a discount on the membership fee or a refund. We offer enough possibilities to join an alternative workout. 

Unless indicated otherwise by Mom in Balance, no workouts will take place on public holidays without this resulting in a discount on the membership fee or a refund.

8.2 Credits   

In your personal member account you can change your fixed workout. 

With a once a week membership you’ll receive a credit when you sign off from a workout. You’ll only receive a credit if you report your absence at the latest 1 hour before the workout starts. If you miss a workout (or more) it is not possible to receive a discount on your membership or a refund. 

As a member you can save up to a maximum of 4 credits at a time. You can use your credits within an active membership. Your credit does not expire, but are non-transferable.
