*Unused Hours & Cancellation Policy:
Clients can view instructor availability prior to booking, as well as book all sessions immediately upon purchase. We ask that you consider your availability beforehand, and highly recommend booking all sessions at the same time to avoid time slots filling up. If a customer is not able to schedule all sessions or hours provided within the time frame required – no refunds, transfers, or pro-rating will be provided (see below for exception) and the session may not be transferred to a different package type. A new package must be chosen & purchased at this time to schedule further sessions. Any modifications, including rescheduling/cancellation, can be done in the client portal, and must be done more than 24 hours before a session. After that, no refunds or rescheduling options will be offered.
*Refund Exception:
The only exception to the refund policy applies if a teacher is no longer able to provide availability for the client to schedule all sessions in a package after more than 3 days of purchase. In this case, the customer would have the chance to extend the package or to receive a refund based on the unused # of sessions (pro-rated).
