Terms
Missed Classes: You may miss up to two classes during the course. Makeup sessions for these classes are available on weekdays only, by prior arrangement, solely to cover missed course syllabus. If the syllabus has been completed during your regular classes, no additional makeup sessions will be provided.
Makeups are generally accommodated within weekday batches or grouped with other students. Individual makeup sessions are not offered. We will try to accommodate your availability, but flexibility is required from students to attend one of the reasonable scheduling options offered within our teaching hours.
All makeups must be completed by the last day of the course. If you are unable to attend any of the offered options or miss an agreed session, the makeup will be forfeited. No makeup sessions or compensatory classes will be provided after the course ends. This applies to absences for any reason, including accidents, hospitalisation, travel or family emergencies.
Late Arrivals: Arriving late does not extend your session. The class will end at its scheduled time.
Classes Cancelled by the Studio: If the studio cancels a class, the full session will be rescheduled for a date and time mutually convenient for the group. This will not count towards your allowance of two makeup classes. If needed, the replacement session may take place after the original course end date.
Cancellation & Refunds: A full refund will be provided for cancellation requests received before 12 noon, 10 days before the course start date. After this deadline, a refund will be provided only if a replacement student fills your seat before the course begins. The replacement may be arranged by you or found through our waitlist or enquiries. We will make reasonable efforts to fill your seat but cannot guarantee a replacement.
If no replacement is found before the course begins, no refund will be provided. No refunds will be provided once the course begins, regardless of the reason for cancellation or non-attendance.
