Terms & conditions

What this work is, and what it is not

My work brings together voice, breath, somatic practice, yoga and Compassionate Inquiry. It is educational and experiential.

It is not medical care, psychotherapy, counselling or a diagnosis, and it does not replace any of those. If you are under the care of a doctor or therapist, please keep them in the loop and speak with them before starting.

You set your own pace throughout, and you may pause, rest or step out of any practice at any time. If something in your body or your history feels tender, tell me. That is useful information, not an inconvenience.

Paying

Tuition is due when you reserve your place. You can pay by debit or credit card, PayPal, Google Pay or Apple Pay, or by Wise or bank transfer if that is easier from where you are.

Cancelling and refunds

Once your purchase is made, there are no refunds or discounts. That includes a change of heart, arriving late, leaving early, flight cancellations, travel delays, illness, or not loving the program.

If you cancel a retreat, training or coaching experience for any reason, this policy applies, with no exceptions. I wish I could make up for the unexpected (injury, a family emergency), but costs are already paid when your place is reserved.

I give these experiences everything I have. If something is not landing for you, I would far rather hear it early, so we can find a way through together.

Moving or missing a session

• You are welcome to change your appointment up to 12 hours before your session.
• Cancellations inside 12 hours are forfeited sessions.
• One-to-one sessions and packages, including mentoring and coaching, are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase.

If there is an exceptional circumstance, tell me and we will look at it together.

When you book me to come to you

This part is for studios, retreats, trainings, festivals and private hosts who invite me in. Once we agree a date, these terms apply.

If you need to move or cancel

• More than 30 days before: your deposit moves to a new date within 6 months.
• 14 to 30 days before: the deposit stays with me.
• Less than 14 days before: the full fee is due.

I turn down other work to hold your date, which is why. If something big happens, talk to me. I’d always rather find a new date together.

How we hold the space together

Everything I teach rests on respect, integrity and compassion. I come back to the Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz often:

Spiritual code of conduct

Everyone who studies with me agrees to:

• Uphold the integrity of the classical yoga tradition by practising humility and patience.
• Know the limits of your own skills and scope of practice, and ask for guidance where it is needed.
• Respect all students, teachers, staff and community members, whatever their background or level of awareness.
• Respect the rights, dignity and privacy of everyone else in the room.
• Avoid words and actions that are disrespectful or harmful to others.

If a breach of this code is brought to my attention, I will look into it, and I may ask a student to leave a program if it has been broken.
