All scheduled classes have a strict 24 hour cancellation policy. If you cancel more than 24 hrs before your scheduled session you will keep your credit. If you cancel less than 24 hours before your scheduled session you will lose your credit.
You must cancel two weeks prior to a retreat. Canceling after the two week period forfeits your deposit.
