Good to know
-
Beginning October 1st, 2026 three no-shows to class in one billing month will result in a freeze on your membership pre-booking abilities. You will be required to contact us directly to request class enrollment. Chronic no-shows will put members at risk of having their membership deactivated. The count resets each month.
We understand that life happens and sometimes you cannot make it to class, when this is the case you should request to cancel your class reservation one of a few ways:
- You can text us at (847) 328 - 2795
- Email us at hello@actorsgymnasium.org
- You can request a cancellation directly through your Sawyer Dashboard by navigating to the “My Account” tab > click “Calendar” > Select the class > select “Request to Cancel”. You must do this 24 hours in advance to receive a membership spot/credit for the class.
- Ask our staff on desk duty to help cancel upcoming classes for you
Please cancel 24 hours in advance to avoid losing a membership spot.
Students arriving more than 15 minutes late to class will not be permitted to join class. For classes that are an hour long, the limit is 10 minutes.

No. Drop-in classes are $40 per class for both beginner and advanced levels. Join only if a membership saves you money or fits how you like to train.

Memberships are billed monthly, with no annual contract, and you can cancel anytime. The "founding year" just means your founding rate is locked in for twelve months. You're never committed beyond the current month.
-
Studio Pass gives you four classes a month, about once a week. Unlimited lets you train as often as you'd like. If you come more than about six times a month, Unlimited is the better value.
-
Beginner classes are open to all adults, no experience needed. Advanced classes are higher-level and require instructor permission. The Advanced membership includes everything, both beginner and advanced.

Absolutely, and there's no pressure to commit. Try us with a drop-in. Our beginner classes are designed to be a comfortable space for newcomers, so you'll never feel out of place.
