Frequently Asked Questions
Below you'll find answers to our most frequently asked questions, covering class logistics, parking, and our wellness area.
What should I bring to class?Bring water, a towel, and comfortable workout clothes. Grip socks are required for Mat Pilates and Boot Camp classes (available for purchase at the front desk if you don't have your own).
Do I need to reserve a spot in advance?Yes, we recommend reserving your spot online to guarantee your place in class, especially during peak hours.
What fitness level do I need to participate?Our classes are suitable for all fitness levels. Instructors provide modifications to accommodate beginners through advanced participants.
What is the class duration?Most classes are 45 to 60 minutes long.
Are there any age restrictions?Participants must be at least 16 years old. Minors may require parental consent.
How early should I arrive?Please arrive at least 10–15 minutes early to check in, set up your mat or equipment, and get familiar with the studio.
What if I need to cancel my reservation?Cancellations can typically be made up to 12 hours before your class without penalty, if booked via ClassPass please contact them for any questions.
Is there a membership or drop-in option?We offer both membership packages and drop-in rates. Check our website for current pricing and options.
What can I expect from a typical class? Mat Pilates classes include a warm-up, core-focused exercises using your bodyweight and light equipment (rings, bands, small weights), and a cool-down stretch. Bootcamp classes include a warm-up, a mix of strength and cardio intervals, and a cool-down. Expect energizing music and motivational coaching in both.
Are there showers and changing facilities?Yes, our studio has showers and changing areas, plus recovery amenities including sauna, cold plunge, and compression therapy available for your use.
Can I use the wellness area with the sauna and cold plunge?Yes! Wellness access is $20 as a stand-alone drop-in, and covers either or both the sauna and cold plunge. We also have compression boots available — just ask a front desk team member. If you're already booked into a class and purchase your class drop-in through the GVO website or app, you can add on wellness access for $10 instead of the $20 rate (this add-on pricing does not apply to ClassPass bookings). Unlimited membership holders have unlimited access to the wellness area at no extra cost.
Where can I park?GVO is located at 3000 N Federal Hwy, Suite 9-10, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33306. There's plenty of free parking available right in our plaza.
