B. Arbitration Agreement
By accepting the Terms, you and Common Language Studio agree to submit any and all Disputes (as defined below) to binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), which shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement ("Arbitration Agreement"). Arbitration shall be before either (1) JAMS (formerly known as Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services), www.jamsadr.com, or (2) the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), www.adr.org. If you initiate arbitration, you shall have the choice as between these two arbitration forums; if Common Language initiates arbitration, it shall have the choice as between these two arbitration forums.
WE EACH AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF DISPUTES BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES WHICH ARISE AFTER YOU ENTER INTO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
C. Class Action Waiver
You agree that the arbitration of any Dispute (as defined below) shall be conducted on an individual, not a class-wide basis, and that no such arbitration proceedings may be consolidated with any other arbitration or other legal proceedings involving Common Language or any other person. You further agree that you, and anyone asserting a claim through you, will not be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, representative, or consolidated proceeding against Common Language. We and you agree that the arbitrator of any Dispute between us may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claim (such as a class action, representative action, consolidated action or private attorney general action).
If this class action waiver ("Class Action Waiver") clause or any portion thereof is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then the Arbitration Agreement will be unenforceable, and the Dispute will be decided by a court. Any claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is invalid, unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.
Common Language Reservations and Gift Cards
In order to make a reservation, you must first buy a single class or a series of classes. To buy an individual class or series of classes online, you can either sign up here www.commonlanguagestudio.com by using your e-mail and creating a password, or if you are already registered, click login to buy a series and make your reservation.
May purchase unlimited classes. Single Sweats expire after 30 days, (3) and (5) packs expire after 60 days and (10) packs expire after 90 days. Any memberships will not roll over credits but can be held if on vacation or maternity leave. Reach out to any CL studio to ask about advanced group booking options. Common Language reserves the right to hold up to ten (10) rebounders and/or spots in each class. If you are looking for a class buy out- CL reserves the right to hold up to (17) spots for a class time.
In addition to and separate from your purchase of a class or series of classes, if you are a no-show we charge a non-refundable fee of $15 per rebounder. With a late/cancel you will lose the session as well as a $5 fee. This fee is separate from the fee you pay for your class and will not be returned or refunded - even if you cancel your class - unless a class is cancelled by Common Language or if you wish to be refunded in the event of an emergency. We are a small studio with amazing instructors dedicating their time to this hour. We don’t always have waitlists and when we do it won’t allow us enough time to fill the spot.
In addition to classes and series of classes-you can also buy a gift certificate. Common Language gift certificates are called "gift cards". Gift cards never expire and the person that you are giving them to can use his or her gift card(s) to buy classes or to buy any kind of merchandise. Once a class is purchased using a gift card, it will expire, just like any other class you buy.
Gift cards and classes are different purchases and will not be intertwined. Unlike gift cards or gift certificates, classes are for our rides/classes only. You cannot give classes to another as a gift but can use your GUEST pass as a way to treat a friend in your account. When you buy a class, you are only entitled to use that class to book a rebounder in a particular studio at a particular time. You cannot redeem your class for cash and you cannot transfer it to another community member.
Classes do expire. The expiration dates are posted in the description of the class or series of classes on the Website and the App and listed on your receipt. If, however, you get jammed up and cannot book a class in time, just give us a call, stop by the studio, or e-mail us and we can help you.
Future class prices are subject to change, but Common Language will honor your class or series of classes until the expiration date, regardless of whether there is a price increase in the interim. We accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express. Cash payments may only be made in a Common Language studio via Venmo or Zelle for merchandise. You can reserve classes online up to 1 week in advance (Sunday at noon through the following Sunday). Events will be up for the month in advance.
Your credit/debit card will be charged for your order when you buy your class or series of classes, not when you book your spot. CL will not process charges that use an incorrect, expired, or over-the-limit credit card. We will try to contact you if this occurs. If you fail to pay any fees or charges when due, services or privileges may be suspended or terminated. You shall be responsible and liable for any fees, including attorneys' fees and collection costs, that CL may incur in its efforts to collect any unpaid balances from you.
D. CONSUMERS' RIGHT TO CANCELLATION

CL will refund the purchase price of your unused classes within ten days after we receive your notice of cancellation. CL and community members shall have the option to receive the refund either to the original method of payment or CL store credit.
Please note, however, that your right to cancel classes does not apply to Studio buy-outs or private events, which is a separate and distinct scheduling feature. Events are not the purchase of classes and it does not provide you with the right to take classes back. Any CL privates or events are non-refundable unless a class is cancelled by CL.
