Membership at Atelier & Sons — how it works

Memberships at Atelier & Sons run on a quarterly cycle that mirrors our programming blocks. When you sign up, we schedule your baseline assessment within five business days. The assessment takes about 75 minutes and produces a written report you keep: movement quality scores, baseline strength numbers in five compound lifts, and a target profile for the block ahead. From that day forward, your programme lives in our app, your coach checks in weekly, and a progress report lands in your inbox every Sunday. Mid-block check-ins at week six let your coach adjust load or volume if you're tracking ahead or falling behind. At the end of twelve weeks, you re-test, compare to baseline, and decide whether to continue, upgrade, or pause. There are no annual lock-ins — quarterly renewals only, which keeps us accountable to you.

Membership questions answered

Is there a contract or annual commitment?

No annual contract. Memberships renew quarterly. If you want to pause or cancel, you give us 14 days' notice before your next renewal date and you owe nothing beyond the current quarter. We run on quarterly cycles because that's how the programming blocks work — it keeps the incentives aligned.

Can I try the gym before committing to a quarter?

Yes. We offer a two-session trial for $40, which covers a coach-led orientation and one guided training session using a sample programme. The $40 applies as a credit toward your first quarter if you join. We don't offer unlimited free passes because a meaningful trial requires a real session, not a tour.

What if I travel or need to pause mid-quarter?

Members can pause for up to three consecutive weeks per quarter without losing their block progress. If you travel frequently, the coach check-in and app programme mean you can train at any facility and your data still flows into your Sunday report. We'll note the environment difference and adjust load accordingly.

Do I have to follow the programme exactly?

You don't have to, but the results data is strongest when you do. Members who deviate significantly from the programme still get reports, but the trend lines become harder to interpret. Your coach will flag deviation in the weekly check-in, not as a reprimand but because it helps isolate what's actually working.

Is the gym suitable for complete beginners?

Absolutely. The baseline assessment is designed to be low-stakes — we're not testing your fitness, we're recording your starting point. New members with no prior strength training history are assigned a beginner-specific 12-week block with lighter loads, more technique work, and more frequent check-ins during the first four weeks.

“I asked about the contract on my first call. The fact that it's quarterly, not annual, told me everything I needed to know about whether they were confident in their programme. Twelve weeks later, I had the report in my hand. I renewed the same day.”
