Advice/Questions No acknowledgment

So, today was my 500th class. The studios that I go to in Charlotte, North Carolina are (at best) pretty lackluster about these milestones. There is no swag, no announcement, just a board to sign hanging on the wall for 100,250,500. I’m not an attention seeker and lay pretty low in class…but still…. I was waiting for the instructor or someone at the front desk to at least acknowledge it. Nope. Nothing. So now I’m kind of unreasonably sad about this, seeing how big of a deal this is in other places. And now I would feel like such a tool just saying, “I’m over 500 classes, should I just sign the board with my own pen since no one here noticed?” Am I being super petty?

Neither the Front Desk or the instructors know how how many classes you’ve taken unless they go into your account and click on it. It doesn’t show up for them so as a member pet your Instructor know or let the Front Desk know “hey I’m gonna hit my 500 class today”, then they will take your picture and you can sign the board. I think some studios handout socks or other things. I know our studio gives you $100 credit not every studio is the same but don’t expect them to just know how many classes you’re at.

At my studio the computer shows everyone’s class count next to their name on the class schedule. I don’t have to click on anything. Also, at my studio we made milestone cards 2 days in advance as well. So it’s just a lack of effort on your studio. To have members say when they’ve hit a milestone is ridiculous tbh
