Last updated: 5 September 2026​

1. Terms and Conditions​

1.1 Who we are​

These terms govern your use of ruuted.co and any class, session, assessment, programme

or subscription you book or buy from us.

Trading name: ruuted

Owner: Ruan Booyens

Location: Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

Email: info@ruuted.co.za

Website: https://ruuted.co

By booking, subscribing or paying, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do

not use the service.

1.2 What we offer

In-person movement classes held at the clubhouse at Northridge Coastal Estate, Cape

Town

One-on-one coaching sessions by appointment

A movement assessment: a 90-minute diagnostic session, available once per client

Digital subscriptions and programmes delivered online (when available)

Class times, venues and coaches may change. We will give as much notice as we

reasonably can.​

1.3 Bookings and payment

All bookings are made through ruuted.co and must be paid for in full at the time of

booking, unless agreed otherwise in writing.

Prices are in South African Rand (ZAR) and include VAT where applicable.

Payments are processed by Paystack. We do not receive or store your full card details.

Your booking is only confirmed once payment has been successfully processed and you

have received a confirmation from us.

1.4 Monthly plans

Monthly plans are recurring subscriptions. Your card is charged automatically on the

same date each month until you cancel.

You may cancel at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid

month, and you keep access until then.

We do not pro-rate or refund part-months.

If a payment fails, we may retry it and may suspend access until payment succeeds.

1.5 Your responsibilities

You confirm that you are medically fit to take part in physical activity, and that you have

consulted a doctor if you have any condition, injury or concern that could be affected by

exercise.

You must tell your coach about any injury, illness, pregnancy, medication or limitation

before the session starts, and during a session if something changes.

You take part at your own pace. You may stop, rest or modify any movement at any time.

You agree to follow reasonable instructions from the coach and the rules of the venue.

1.6 Risk and liability

Physical training carries inherent risk of injury. You take part voluntarily and accept that risk.

To the extent permitted by the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 and other applicable

South African law, ruuted is not liable for any injury, loss or damage arising from your

participation, except where caused by our gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Nothing in

these terms limits or excludes any right you have that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.

We are not responsible for personal property brought to a session.

1.7 Conduct

We may refuse entry to, remove from, or cancel the booking of anyone who behaves

unsafely, abusively or in a way that disrupts a session or breaches venue rules. Where we

cancel for this reason, no refund is due.

1.8 Intellectual property

All content on ruuted.co, and all programmes, videos, audio, written material and class

content, belongs to ruuted. You may use it for your own personal practice. You may not

copy, record, resell, publish or teach it commercially without our written permission.

1.9 Changes

We may update these terms. The current version is always published on ruuted.co, with the

date it was last updated. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated

terms.

1.10 Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. If something goes

wrong, contact us first at info@ruuted.co.za and we will try to resolve it directly. You retain

your rights to refer a dispute to the National Consumer Commission or a relevant ombud.

2. Refund and Cancellation Policy

We want you to be treated fairly. This policy explains what happens when a booking, session

or subscription needs to be cancelled.

2.1 Cancelling a class or session (you)

Cancel more than 24 hours before the start time: full refund to your original payment

method, or a credit for a future session, whichever you prefer.

Cancel less than 24 hours before the start time, or do not arrive: the session is

forfeited and no refund is due. The coach’s time and the venue have already been

committed.

To cancel, use the link in your booking confirmation, or email info@ruuted.co.za. The

cancellation is effective from the time we receive it.

We understand that illness and emergencies happen. If something serious comes up inside

the 24-hour window, contact us and we will consider a credit at our discretion.

2.2 Cancelling a class or session (us)

If we cancel a session for any reason - coach illness, venue closure, unsafe weather, too

few attendees - you will be offered your choice of a full refund or a credit toward another

session. We will tell you as early as we can.

2.3 Monthly plans

Cancel any time. Your plan stops renewing and your access continues to the end of the

month you have already paid for.

We do not refund part-months or unused sessions within a paid month.

Individual missed classes within a monthly plan are not credited or carried over.

2.4 Movement assessment and one-on-one sessions

The 24-hour rule above applies. Because these are booked as dedicated time, a late

cancellation or no-show is charged in full.

2.5 Digital subscriptions and programmes

You may cancel a digital subscription at any time. It stops at the end of the current

billing period and is not refunded pro-rata.

If you cancel within 7 days of your first purchase and have not substantially used or

downloaded the content, we will refund you in full, in line with section 44 of the

Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002.

Where content is faulty, inaccessible or materially not as described, tell us and we will fix

it, replace it or refund you.

2.6 How refunds are paid

Approved refunds are processed through Paystack to the original payment method. Please

allow up to 10 business days for the funds to reflect, depending on your bank. We do not

refund in cash.
