All remaining payments are required by at least 6 weeks before the start date and the total balance is non-refundable after this date. Refunds for ballet retreats already taken are not permitted under any circumstances.

Payments are to be made online. Paypal, bank transfer or a method of payment agreed by us (yourself and I) all accepted. Please ensure you save all payment receipts as you may be asked to provide these at a later date.

Retreats cannot be reserved without payment. Your place on a retreat is only confirmed once a deposit payment has been received.

If under the circumstances that I need to reschedule or cancel a class, your payment will be transferred to another retreat of your decision and of the same value taking place in the future.
