Capt.D reserves the right to restrict or terminate access to the Website where we reasonably believe that these Terms have been breached.
4. WEBSITE INFORMATION
We endeavour to ensure that information published on the Website is accurate, current and useful.
However, information on the Website may occasionally contain:
- typographical errors;
- pricing or availability errors;
- outdated information;
- technical inaccuracies;
- omissions; or
- information that has changed since the relevant page was published.
Capt.D reserves the right to correct, amend, update or remove Website content at any time without prior notice.
Class schedules, instructors, prices, packages, availability, venues, events and other service information may change from time to time.
Information displayed on the Website should therefore not be regarded as a guarantee that a particular class, instructor, package, price, venue or service will remain available.
Where a booking or transaction has already been confirmed, the applicable booking, membership or transaction terms will apply, subject to applicable law.
5. FITNESS, WELLNESS AND HEALTH DISCLAIMER
The information provided on the Website is intended for general informational purposes only.
Capt.D’s Website content is not intended to constitute medical advice, diagnosis, treatment or a substitute for advice from a qualified medical practitioner or other appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
Participation in physical exercise, including Reformer Pilates, Pilates, yoga, DanceFit, strength, mobility, cardiovascular or other physical activities, involves inherent risks.
Before participating in any physical activity, you should consider your individual health, fitness level, physical condition and any existing medical conditions, injuries, pregnancy-related considerations or other relevant circumstances.
You are responsible for obtaining appropriate medical advice where necessary before commencing or continuing an exercise programme.
You should inform Capt.D and the relevant instructor of any medical condition, injury, limitation or other circumstance that may reasonably affect your ability to participate safely.
Capt.D reserves the right, where reasonably necessary for safety, to recommend that a participant seek medical clearance or modify, postpone or discontinue participation.
The Website does not guarantee any particular fitness, health, weight-loss, rehabilitation, performance or other physical outcome.
Individual results will vary depending on factors including, but not limited to, consistency, physical condition, lifestyle, nutrition, training history and individual circumstances.
6. PARTICIPATION AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK
Participation in Capt.D activities is subject to the applicable booking, membership and participation terms and, where required, acceptance of Capt.D’s liability waiver and/or assumption-of-risk documentation.
By participating in a Capt.D class, session, event or other physical activity, participants acknowledge that physical activity carries inherent risks, including the possibility of muscle soreness, strains, sprains, falls, aggravation of existing conditions and other injuries.
Participants are expected to:
- follow reasonable instructions given by Capt.D instructors;
- use equipment responsibly;
- inform the instructor of relevant physical limitations or concerns;
- stop exercising if they experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, unusual discomfort or other concerning symptoms; and
- seek appropriate medical attention where necessary.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under South African law.
7. BOOKINGS, MEMBERSHIPS AND PAYMENTS
Information regarding Capt.D classes, memberships, packages, private sessions, events and pricing displayed on the Website is subject to availability and the applicable booking or membership terms.
A Website enquiry does not necessarily constitute a confirmed booking.

- memberships;
- packages;
- private sessions;

8. PRICING AND PROMOTIONAL OFFERS
Unless expressly stated otherwise, prices displayed on the Website are quoted in South African Rand (ZAR).
Capt.D makes reasonable efforts to ensure that pricing information is accurate. However, an obvious pricing error does not automatically create an obligation on Capt.D to provide a service at an incorrect price, subject always to applicable consumer-protection legislation.
Promotional offers may:
- be available for a limited period;
- be subject to limited availability;
- apply only to specified services;
- be available only to new or existing clients as specified;

Capt.D’s cancellation, refund, rescheduling, expiry and no-show rules may differ depending on the service, package or membership purchased.
The applicable policy will be communicated during the relevant booking or membership process and/or made available on the Website.
Capt.D reserves the right to cancel, postpone, reschedule or modify a class, event or session where reasonably necessary, including due to instructor availability, operational requirements, insufficient bookings, venue circumstances, equipment issues, safety concerns or circumstances beyond Capt.D’s reasonable control.
Where a session is cancelled by Capt.D, reasonable alternatives or remedies will be provided in accordance with the applicable booking terms and applicable law.
