Refund Policy
Please note: There are no full refunds for any classes.
A partial refund will be given only if extenuating circumstances prohibit attendance or rescheduling of class.
A processing fee of 10 percent will be subtracted from your refund. If you have registered for a Childbirth Series and already attended one or more of those classes, the refund will be pro-rated. (This does not include yoga/Pilates classes).
Yoga/Pilates classes: If you deliver early, classes can be used after delivery. Therefore, no refunds will be given. Please be aware of this when choosing the number of classes you are registering for.
