CANCELLATION POLICY

If you have prepaid for your class and you need to cancel, you are entitled to a full refund minus a $20 administrative fee if you give us at least 24 hrs. notice. (The full payment is transferable to another class that you schedule taking place within the next 60 days without losing the administrative fee).

If you do not call or e-mail us, and do not show up for your scheduled class by the start time (No Call, No Show), you forfeit the entire cost of the class and would be expected to pay the full amount again if you sign up for another class in the future. Most of our classes fill up to capacity and we have people on the waiting list. By not contacting us ahead of time and not showing up, we delay the start of class while we wait for your arrival and we prevent others from being able to attend because we had saved the spot for you. If you have questions about this policy, please contact us during normal business hours.
