Additional class information after signup
First can you let us know if you want to bring your own machine rather than use ours (one is always allocated for you anyway) and let us know the Brand and model.
If you need a parking outside the Mansion (for bringing your own machine or for other access requirements) If this is the case let us have the car and Reg details. On the day we will give you access through the bollards if the above applies to drop off.
Remember the park is busy at weekends. There is a busy farmers food market and often other events, so please give yourself time to arrive if parking so you won’t be late for your class. There is no free parking in the car park 8 – 5pm but it’s very easy to find free parking outside the park in the mornings like Foxgrove Road its just about 5-10 mins walk to the park. There is also plenty of other travel options trains and buses are close and regular to this location. Let us know if you have any questions.
Reminder bring lunch, teacher usually gives a 30 min break for food but going to queue at the Park cafes at the weekends can be long so gather your food and drinks on your way in or better still a pack lunch is good you can eat in the room we don’t mind!
Finally we will need your Bust measurement at the widest point that’s across your bust points email us at info@knowhowyou.co.uk
