Terms of Service

You must be at least 13 years old to use Beam. If you are under 18, or otherwise below the age of legal majority where you live, you may use Beam only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.

Beam is designed primarily for Pilates instructors and people involved in Pilates instruction and class planning. We do not require users to hold a particular Pilates certification, and Beam does not independently verify, certify, license, endorse, supervise, or guarantee the qualifications, training, experience, or professional competence of its users.

You are responsible for determining whether you are appropriately qualified and legally permitted to provide Pilates, fitness, or related instruction in the location where you operate.

When creating an account, you agree to provide accurate information, keep your login credentials secure, and take reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access. Please notify us promptly if you believe that your account has been accessed without permission.

You are responsible for activity conducted through your account to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Beam accounts are intended for the person or organization that created them. You may not sell, rent, sublicense, commercially transfer, or improperly share access to an individual Beam account. You may also not create or operate multiple accounts for the purpose of avoiding subscription restrictions, class limits, BeamFit usage limits, promotional restrictions, or other reasonable controls implemented by Beam.

Beam is a Pilates class-planning, organizational, and educational software platform.

Depending on your account and subscription plan, Beam may help you browse Pilates exercises, create and save classes, organize exercise sequences, upload custom exercises, maintain notes, schedule classes, use calendar functionality, work with BeamFit, participate in community features, submit exercises for consideration for public use, use or copy eligible public classes, and collaborate through Studio workspaces.

Features may differ between subscription plans, platforms, devices, countries, and versions of Beam.

Beam is designed to help make class planning easier, but it does not replace your own professional judgment.

Beam does not become your employer, medical provider, healthcare provider, physiotherapist, therapist, professional supervisor, business partner, franchise, agent, or representative simply because you use the Service.

Beam does not provide medical advice.

The Service, including BeamFit, Beam’s exercise library, class plans, user-generated content, community discussions, and other information made available through Beam, is intended for general fitness, educational, organizational, and class-planning purposes.

Nothing provided through Beam should be considered medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, physiotherapy advice, rehabilitation guidance, medical clearance, clinical advice, or individualized healthcare advice.

Beam should not be used to diagnose, treat, cure, or rehabilitate a medical condition or injury.

Seeing an exercise, movement, sequence, cue, modification, or class idea within Beam does not automatically mean that it is appropriate for every person. Every participant, body, class, and situation is different.

Where medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, or clearance may be appropriate, the relevant individual should consult a suitably qualified healthcare professional.

Beam can help you build and organize a class, but you remain responsible for the class you teach.

You know your participants, teaching environment, and professional circumstances better than Beam does. It is your responsibility to decide whether an exercise, sequence, progression, regression, modification, cue, intensity level, or class plan is suitable for the people you teach.

This responsibility includes appropriate participant screening, supervision, exercise selection, class intensity, modifications, consideration of known limitations, obtaining medical clearance where appropriate, responding appropriately to pain or injury, and complying with applicable professional, safety, insurance, licensing, and legal requirements.

Beam does not know the medical history, physical condition, movement ability, fitness level, experience, or individual circumstances of your students or clients. We do not review every class created through Beam for safety, and the fact that a class can be created, saved, copied, suggested, or displayed through Beam does not mean Beam has approved it as safe or appropriate for a particular participant.

Pilates and physical exercise involve ordinary and inherent risks, which may include strains, falls, overexertion, aggravation of existing conditions, soft-tissue injuries, joint injuries, and other physical injuries.

A person who chooses to personally perform exercises based on Beam assumes the ordinary risks associated with physical activity, subject to rights and liabilities that cannot legally be waived.

Beam is not designed to operate as a medical-record, clinical-record, patient-management, or electronic health-record system.

Some areas of Beam may allow users to add their own notes or free text. Because you control what goes into those fields, please avoid entering information Beam does not need in order to provide the Service.

Do not use class names, notes, exercise descriptions, custom uploads, BeamFit prompts, community posts, or other Beam fields as a substitute for medical or clinical records.

You should not upload or store medical reports, diagnostic records, treatment documents, confidential patient files, protected healthcare documents, or unnecessary personally identifiable health information through Beam.

The availability of an open-text field does not mean Beam asks for, encourages, or intends to collect medical information.

Beam is not represented as a HIPAA-compliant electronic health record or medical-record platform.

Beam may provide an artificial intelligence-assisted feature known as BeamFit.

BeamFit is designed to support activities such as finding exercises, answering Pilates-related questions, organizing ideas, suggesting class structures, and assisting with class planning.

Think of BeamFit as a planning assistant, not a professional decision-maker.

Artificial intelligence is not perfect. BeamFit may misunderstand context, miss relevant information, provide incomplete information, or generate an exercise, cue, sequence, class plan, or other suggestion that is inappropriate for a particular person or situation.

You are responsible for independently reviewing and evaluating all BeamFit output before using it.

BeamFit should not be relied upon as the sole basis for instructional, safety, health, or professional decisions.

BeamFit must not be used to diagnose medical conditions, treat or rehabilitate injuries, provide physiotherapy, prescribe exercise for a medical condition, or replace advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Please do not enter client medical records, diagnoses, personally identifiable confidential health information, passwords, financial credentials, or other unnecessary sensitive information into BeamFit.

To provide AI functionality, information submitted through BeamFit may be processed by an external artificial intelligence service provider. Beam does not use BeamFit prompts or responses to train its own AI models unless we clearly disclose a material change to that practice and obtain any consent required by applicable law.

Beam may update the technology used to provide BeamFit, change usage limits, vary AI availability between subscription plans, improve or replace functionality, temporarily restrict AI features, or discontinue particular AI functionality as the Service develops.

Beam has invested substantial time and resources into developing its exercise library, software, content, and class-planning system.

Except for User Content and third-party material, Beam and its licensors retain all rights, title, and interest in the Service, including Beam’s software, interface, branding, exercise library, exercise descriptions, photographs, videos, graphics, databases, organizational structure, class-planning functionality, and related proprietary materials.

Subject to your applicable subscription plan and these Terms, Beam gives you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable right to access and use Beam and its content for lawful Pilates class planning and instruction.

You may use Beam to create and teach paid Pilates classes for your own clients or participants.

That permission does not transfer ownership of Beam’s underlying exercise library, descriptions, photographs, videos, software, database, or other intellectual property to you.

Without Beam’s prior written permission, you may not systematically scrape or extract Beam content, reproduce substantial portions of the exercise library, copy Beam’s library into another platform, republish Beam material as your own exercise database, sell or license Beam’s content library, build a competing platform or database using Beam content, reproduce substantial portions of Beam content in another commercial course, publication, website, database, or application, or use automated tools to bypass restrictions or harvest Beam materials.

You may create or upload content through Beam, including custom exercises, class plans, text, photographs, videos, links, notes, community posts, comments, and similar material. We refer to this as “User Content.”

You retain ownership of original User Content you create, subject to Beam’s ownership of any Beam material incorporated within it.

To operate the Service, you give Beam a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, reproduce, resize, format, transmit, display, back up, and technically modify your User Content as reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, secure, support, and operate Beam.

This license does not mean that Beam takes ownership of your private User Content.

When you upload or submit content, you represent that you own it or have the necessary rights and permissions to use it. Your content must not unlawfully infringe another person’s copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, confidentiality, contractual, or other legal rights.

If another person appears in a photograph or video that you upload, you are responsible for obtaining any permission or consent legally required to upload and use that material.

Do not copy exercises, photographs, videos, written descriptions, or other materials from another Pilates platform, instructor, training program, course, publication, website, or exercise library unless you have the legal right to do so.

Beam may remove, disable, or restrict User Content that we reasonably believe is unlawful, infringing, unsafe, fraudulent, harmful, or inconsistent with these Terms.

Exercises you create remain private unless you deliberately submit them to Beam for consideration for public use, such as through “Send to Admin for Public Use” or another substantially similar feature.

Submitting an exercise does not guarantee that Beam will accept, publish, or continue publishing it.

If you voluntarily submit an exercise for public use, you retain ownership of your original contribution but grant Beam a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable, and royalty-free license to review, use, reproduce, edit, adapt, format, publish, display, distribute, incorporate into Beam’s exercise library, and otherwise make the submitted content available through Beam.

Beam may make reasonable editorial changes for clarity, formatting, categorization, consistency, presentation, or quality.

Unless separately agreed in writing, submitting or publishing an exercise does not entitle you to compensation, royalties, or other payment.

If Beam accepts and incorporates a submitted exercise into its public library, the rights granted to Beam continue even if you later cancel your subscription, delete your account, stop using Beam, or change your mind about the submission, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

A class plan created through Beam may contain both Beam-owned material and original content created by you.

Beam continues to own its underlying exercises, exercise descriptions, photographs, videos, software, databases, and other proprietary materials. You retain ownership of original material you independently contribute and may have rights in your original selection or arrangement of a class to the extent recognized by applicable law.

Creating a class through Beam does not give you ownership of Beam’s underlying content.

Where Beam allows you to intentionally make a class public, submit it for sharing, or otherwise make it available to eligible users, you give Beam permission to host, store, display, distribute, and enable that class to be used or copied through Beam’s available functionality.

A user who uses or copies a public class does not gain ownership of Beam’s underlying exercise library or proprietary content.

Beam may provide community spaces where instructors can exchange ideas, ask questions, post content, and interact with other users.

We want those spaces to remain useful, welcoming, and relevant. You may not use Beam’s community features to harass or threaten another person, engage in unlawful discrimination, impersonate someone, distribute spam or malicious software, infringe intellectual-property rights, improperly publish another person’s private information, distribute unlawful or sexually explicit material, provide dangerous medical advice, engage in deceptive solicitation, or otherwise interfere with the community or the Service.

Reasonable Pilates-related business promotion may be permitted where it is relevant, truthful, and not repetitive or spam-like.

If you see inappropriate, offensive, unsafe, or potentially unlawful content, you may report it through Beam’s available Support Ticket feature or by contacting support@beamclasscreator.com.

Beam may review reported content, remove or restrict content, suspend community access, limit posting privileges, or terminate accounts where reasonably necessary to protect users, the community, or the Service.

Beam does not review every community contribution before it appears and does not endorse opinions, recommendations, claims, or advice posted by users. You remain responsible for what you publish.

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Beam generally does not directly receive or store your complete payment-card number. Available subscription and payment methods may differ depending on your device, operating system, platform, country, app-store storefront, or applicable marketplace requirements. Beam may add, remove, restrict, or modify a payment or subscription method where reasonably necessary to comply with platform requirements, applicable law, or changes to the Service.

Except where applicable law requires otherwise, subscription payments are generally non-refundable.

Beam does not ordinarily provide prorated refunds for unused subscription periods or refunds solely because a subscription was not cancelled before renewal.

We understand that unusual situations can happen. Beam may review refund requests on a case-by-case basis, including situations involving duplicate charges, billing errors, or significant technical issues.

Providing a discretionary refund on one occasion does not create an obligation to provide a refund in another situation.

Nothing in this section removes any refund or consumer right that applicable law does not allow a consumer to waive.

Beam may change subscription pricing offered to new customers from time to time.

If you first subscribed to an eligible paid Beam subscription before August 1, 2026, your existing subscription price will remain unchanged for as long as that qualifying subscription remains continuously active, except where a change is required by applicable law, tax requirements, or circumstances that legally prevent Beam from continuing the existing pricing.

This grandfathered pricing applies only while the qualifying subscription remains continuously active. If you cancel your subscription, allow it to expire, switch to a different subscription plan, or later begin a new subscription, the pricing then available may apply.

For subscriptions first started on or after August 1, 2026, Beam may change subscription pricing in the future, subject to any notice, consent, renewal, or other requirements imposed by applicable law or the platform through which the subscription is provided. Where reasonably practicable, Beam intends to provide approximately 30 days’ advance notice before a material price increase affecting an existing subscription.

Beam may also update plan features, exercise access, class limits, upload allowances, BeamFit limits, storage, community functionality, and other plan features as the Service evolves.

If you downgrade to a plan with lower limits, content that exceeds the new plan’s allowance may be archived, restricted, or made read-only rather than immediately deleted. Access may become available again if you upgrade or otherwise bring your account within the limits of your current plan.

Beam may restrict paid functionality where a payment fails or where we reasonably detect payment fraud, fraudulent chargebacks, improper credential sharing, repeated creation of accounts to bypass limits, manipulation of usage limits, abuse of promotions, or exploitation of a technical error to obtain functionality that would otherwise require payment.

Studio accounts may work differently from standard individual subscriptions.

Beam may offer customized Studio pricing, instructor limits, permissions, features, or other commercial terms. A Studio arrangement may therefore also be governed by a proposal, order form, contract, or separate written agreement.

Where a separately negotiated written agreement expressly conflicts with these Terms, that agreement will control for the relevant Studio arrangement.

Authorized Studio managers or administrators may be able to invite or remove instructors, manage permissions, access shared workspace content, administer resources, and use other Studio management functionality.

The Studio customer is responsible for choosing its administrators and managing its internal access and permissions.

An instructor retains ownership of their original User Content. However, content created or stored inside a Studio workspace may continue to be available to that Studio after the instructor leaves or loses access. The instructor therefore grants the relevant Studio customer a continuing right to use such content for legitimate internal Studio purposes, subject to Beam’s ownership of Beam Content incorporated into it.

Beam is not responsible for internal disputes between Studio owners, managers, employees, instructors, contractors, or other personnel concerning employment, compensation, termination, permissions, workspace access, ownership of business materials, or use of Studio class plans.

You may initiate deletion of your Beam account through the account-deletion functionality available within the Service.

When you request account deletion, your account and associated content are immediately removed from user-facing areas of Beam and are no longer visible or accessible to other users. Beam currently uses a soft-deletion process, which means that certain account information and User Content may remain in Beam’s internal systems after they have been removed from the user-facing Service.

Information retained through this process may be used only for legitimate internal and operational purposes, including maintaining Service integrity, security, fraud prevention, resolving disputes, enforcing our agreements, complying with legal, tax, accounting, or regulatory requirements, and supporting recovery from technical or security incidents.

Beam will not use information retained solely through account deletion to continue ordinary promotional marketing to you without an independent lawful basis. We may retain limited suppression information necessary to ensure that a marketing opt-out continues to be honored.

Information may also remain temporarily in backups until it is removed or overwritten through Beam’s ordinary backup-management process.

Beam may suspend or restrict an account where reasonably necessary because of fraud, payment issues, security threats, unlawful activity, dangerous misuse, intellectual-property infringement, serious community violations, unauthorized-access attempts, abuse of the Service, or legal requirements.

For less serious issues, Beam may provide a warning or an opportunity to correct the problem where appropriate. Serious or repeated violations may result in termination.

Where an account is terminated because of serious misconduct by the user, unused subscription fees are generally non-refundable except where required by applicable law.

Beam will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the availability, security, performance, and functionality of the Service and to address technical issues within a reasonable timeframe.

Like any online platform, Beam may occasionally experience interruptions, delays, maintenance periods, upgrades, technical failures, infrastructure issues, security events, issues involving external services, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Unless Beam expressly agrees otherwise in a separate written service-level agreement, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, a particular percentage of uptime, fixed support-response times, or permanent availability of any particular feature, integration, technology, or third-party service.

Beam may perform maintenance, update its technology, improve functionality, add new tools, remove or replace outdated features, introduce experimental functionality, change underlying systems, or otherwise develop the Service.

Where changes materially affect a paid service, Beam will seek to manage those changes responsibly and in accordance with applicable contractual and consumer-law requirements.

Please use Beam for what it was built for.

You may not use the Service for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, harmful, or unauthorized purposes.

In particular, you may not attempt unauthorized access to Beam or another user’s account, introduce malicious software, interfere with Service security, systematically scrape Beam content, reverse engineer Beam except where law expressly permits it, circumvent subscription controls, manipulate account or AI limits, improperly share paid credentials, impersonate another person, infringe intellectual-property rights, use Beam as a medical-record system, submit confidential client medical information to BeamFit, use BeamFit as a substitute for medical advice, create a competing exercise database from Beam’s proprietary content, upload content without necessary rights or permissions, or use Beam in a manner that creates unreasonable safety, legal, security, or operational risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Beam is provided “as is” and “as available.”

Beam does not guarantee that every exercise will be suitable for every person, that every class plan will be appropriate for every participant, that BeamFit will always generate accurate information, that community or user-generated content will be reliable, that the Service will never experience interruption or data loss, or that use of Beam will produce any particular professional, fitness, commercial, or financial outcome.

To the extent permitted by law, Beam disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and other warranties that may legally be disclaimed.

Using Beam does not create a doctor-patient, therapist-patient, physiotherapist-patient, trainer-client, fiduciary, employment, agency, partnership, franchise, or joint-venture relationship between Beam and you, your clients, your students, or your participants.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Beam is not responsible for injuries or losses arising from inappropriate exercise selection, incorrect sequencing, unsuitable intensity, inadequate warm-up or cool-down, inappropriate modification, contraindicated exercises, insufficient supervision, participant misuse, failure to seek appropriate medical advice, failure to account for known limitations, reliance on BeamFit, or reliance on a class created by another Beam user.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Beam and its owners, officers, employees, affiliates, contractors, and representatives will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, opportunity, or data.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Beam’s total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed: (a) the total amount you paid to Beam during the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, if you were a paid user; or (b) US $100 if you did not pay Beam any subscription fees during that period.

This liability cap is a limit on potential liability and does not represent or guarantee that any user is entitled to receive the applicable amount.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, nor does anything in these Terms limit mandatory consumer rights that applicable law does not permit a consumer to waive.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Beam and its affiliates, owners, officers, employees, contractors, and representatives from third-party claims, liabilities, losses, damages, and reasonable costs arising out of or relating to your User Content, infringement of another person’s rights, unauthorized use or disclosure of another person’s information, violation of these Terms, unlawful use of Beam, professional instruction or supervision provided by you, claims arising from people you teach or supervise, or misuse of Beam or BeamFit.

This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim results from Beam’s own conduct for which applicable law does not permit indemnification.

Beam may rely on trusted third-party service providers to support functions such as payment processing, hosting, storage, authentication, artificial intelligence, communications, analytics, security, customer support, and other technical or operational activities.

These providers and technologies may change as Beam develops.

Where an independent third-party service applies separate terms or privacy practices directly to you, your use of that service may also be subject to those terms.

Beam remains responsible for its own obligations under applicable law but cannot guarantee the uninterrupted availability or independent conduct of third-party services outside Beam’s reasonable control.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

This choice of law does not take away mandatory consumer rights that cannot legally be waived in the jurisdiction where you live.

We hope disagreements can be resolved directly.

Before either you or Beam begins formal arbitration, the party raising the dispute must provide written notice describing the issue, the relevant circumstances, and the requested resolution. Notices to Beam should be sent to support@beamclasscreator.com.

You and Beam agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the matter informally for at least 30 days after the notice is received.

If a covered dispute cannot be resolved informally, then, except where applicable law requires otherwise, for eligible small-claims matters, or for certain claims requiring urgent court relief, disputes arising out of or relating to Beam, these Terms, or the Service will be resolved through binding individual arbitration.

Arbitration means that a neutral arbitrator, rather than a judge or jury in a traditional court proceeding, generally decides the dispute.

Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its applicable rules, and the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision where applicable.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from bringing an eligible individual claim in small claims court or seeking appropriate court relief where reasonably necessary to protect intellectual property, confidential information, account or Service security, or Beam’s systems against unauthorized access or misuse.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Beam agree that covered disputes will be brought only on an individual basis and not as part of a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action.

Where applicable law does not allow a particular claim, remedy, arbitration requirement, or class-action waiver to be enforced, that law will control with respect to the affected matter.

You may opt out of the arbitration agreement by emailing support@beamclasscreator.com within 30 days after first accepting these Terms. Your request must identify the Beam account to which it relates and clearly state that you wish to opt out of arbitration.

Opting out of arbitration does not cancel your account or affect the remaining provisions of these Terms.

Beam may update these Terms when reasonably necessary to reflect changes to the Service, subscriptions, technology, security practices, business operations, or applicable law.

The “Last Updated” date at the beginning of these Terms identifies the current version.

Where a change materially affects your rights or obligations, Beam may provide additional notice through email, an in-app notification, the Service, the website, or another reasonable method.

Where applicable law requires affirmative consent to an updated term, Beam will request that consent.

Otherwise, continued use of Beam after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of those updated Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Beam may assign or transfer its rights and obligations under these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, corporate restructuring, sale of assets, or sale of all or part of the Beam business.

You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without Beam’s written permission unless applicable law provides otherwise.

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the fullest extent legally permitted.

Beam’s decision not to enforce a provision on one occasion does not waive its right to enforce that provision later.

These Terms, together with Beam’s Privacy Policy and any applicable subscription agreement, Studio agreement, proposal, order form, or separately negotiated written agreement, form the agreement governing your use of Beam.

Where a separately negotiated written agreement expressly overrides a provision of these Terms, that agreement will control for the relevant matter.

Questions about these Terms may be sent to:
