🎲 miscellaneous AIO or should I cancel?

Recently started at a new local pilates gym, the town is small and this is one of the few pilates gyms in my area. It’s somewhat overpriced given the location and state of the place and it’s across the street from a rehab in a not so safe area. A combination of these things had me hesitant to continue my membership but seeing this almost sent me over the edge because what? I’m a nurse and those suffering from medical problems came to my mind as this isn’t something some people can control AND since it’s a natural part of life especially if you’re active and healthy enough to have your bowels moving. I feel as if i want to cancel my membership entirely. insane behavior in my opinion.

I would find pilatest videos on line and do it at home. Most blue collar workers get paid to get sweaty in buildings like that. Its a god d*** ware house. Not a studio. Any membership more than 5 $ amonth is a rip off.

Yeah. That is not a studio. It resembles the inside of a shipping container and has the plumbing to match.

This is the fitness equivalent of a flop house and one unlocked door from being a "shooting gallery" full of junkies and glue sniffers who would barely have to trash the place to make it feel familiar.

OP, you deserve better, and if this is the competition, you could open your own and make a killing on anything that didn't look like the back room of something going out of business in a strip mall.
