a very important announcement


Back when I opened our studio doors in 2018, life was a whole lot different.  Jeff and I were proud, first-time homeowners, settled back in our home state of Rhode Island.  

Our time and attention was dedicated nearly exclusively to teaching and growing the Haven Fitness community. It was the labor of love we had always 

wanted for our new life in a new community.


Flash forward four and a half years later, through the exciting highs of business ownership to the challenging lows of doing business through the 

trials of a global pandemic and 

struggling economy, I, personally, have found myself at a crossroad.

 

As of December 17th, with a heavy, but grateful heart for all of you who have made this experience so special, 

the doors of our little studio will close.


It is not without months of careful thought that I make this difficult decision. Realizing the vision for our community each and every day has given me 

enormous pride and established a deep connection with Pawtuxet Village that I know will live on well-beyond this chapter of my fitness journey. And now, with our family growing, I know that closing Haven is the best decision for me.  

To not only redirect my energy to other passions important to my life but also continue to invest in Rhode Island’s fitness community.


While running a fitness studio won’t be my full-time career any longer, I plan to continue teaching and connecting with you as early as the start of the year (via other local studios and/or locations).  So, like many things in life, as one chapter comes to a close, so too does another open. And, I for sure won’t be a stranger to our Pawtuxet Village…you know I love my coffee, bagels, shopping and dining out too much.


So, what does this mean for you, our loving clients?  

Well, we’re going to ‘go out with a bang!’  Continue to enjoy the classes you know and love at our Haven Fitness studio through December 17th.  We’ve got a few fun, specialty classes lined up for Thanksgiving morning and our last week here on Broad street.  


PLUS, we’re planning a Haven community get together to 

mix-and-mingle on Saturday, December 17th.  

You know our last studio class that morning is going to be FIRE.  All classes and events are loaded onto the schedule, so sign on up and reserve your spot!



Most importantly, I’d love to see as many of you as possible throughout the remaining weeks to give my heartfelt thanks for helping me live out this dream.


xxoo

so much love and gratitude,

Alison



(Please read the FAQ’s below with 

detailed information regarding monthly memberships, class packages, gift cards and more.)

 

 

When is the last week of classes?

Our last week of classes will be the week of December 12th.  Our last official day of classes will be Saturday, December 17th. Afterwards, we’d love for you to join us for a Haven 

community get together to mix and mingle! *Family and kids welcome, too!

Stop by any time between 10am and 12pm on Saturday, Dec 17th!  

Please sign up HERE so we can estimate a head-count. 

We’ll also be teaching fun, specialty classes on Thanksgiving day and during our last week (did someone say, Elfin’ Good Time Cardio Mat and Candlelight Oasis?!)!


What should I expect between now and the last week of classes?

All of the studio goodness you know and love! For the most part, the class schedule will 

remain as-is until then. Continue to enjoy our instructors, our community and our energy! Physical changes to the studio, if any, will wait to be made until after December 17th.


How long do I have to use my class credits?

Credits can be redeemed for classes until Saturday, December 17th. Unfortunately, we 

cannot provide any refunds on class credits or gift cards.  If you’d like to transfer your class credits and/or gift card balance to someone else, please email us directly at 

info@havenfitness.com


Will you continue selling class packages until December?

Yes! In full transparency, we are relying on your continued support to help keep our studio open and running smoothly until then.  To ensure there will be no outstanding class credits upon our December 17th closure, we have transitioned to offering only one class package for sale, a SINGLE CLASS credit for purchase at a discounted price of $14 per class.


When is the last day I can purchase something from Haven Fitness?

December 17th will be the last day we will be processing sales.


Will my monthly autopay membership renew?

As of October 31st, we will no longer provide any monthly packages for sale or process any future autopay memberships. Any active monthly memberships will be terminated at the end of your current 30-day cycle. *Alison will email you directly with more information.

We will offer single-class credits at a discounted price of $14 per class. On average, our monthly clients attend about (8) classes per month, so you’ll be saving $$ by purchasing a single-class credit per each visit!


I have a gift card, how do I redeem it?

Please email or call us and we will process your gift card onto your account. 

info@havenfitness.com or 401-270-6292

Unfortunately, we cannot provide any refunds on unused gift cards.


Will the instructors at Haven Fitness teach elsewhere?

Most definitely! Alison has plans to begin teaching locally at the start of the new year 

(including the Mama & Baby classes you have come to love!). 

Stay tuned for more information via email and social media 

(@haven_fitness and @alisonmcavallo). 

Should any of our other instructors teach elsewhere, we’ll let you know!


What will happen with my Mindbody account?

Your Haven Fitness Mindbody account will no longer be active as of the end of December. Any information stored on your Haven Fitness Mindbody account will be permanently deleted.


What will happen to the Haven Fitness studio space?

As a business, we were extremely lucky to have been blessed with lovely landlords.  Hopefully, a new and exciting business will find its home at 2197 Broad Street in our 

beautiful Pawtuxet Village.  If you, or anyone you know, is looking for commercial space, don't hesitate to reach out to The Village Cleaners (next to Haven Fitness).
