Why We Can't Offer Refunds

Our group classes are structured as 4-week sessions. These sessions have limited spots. Your enrollment reserves a place. This takes that spot from another student. We prepare for each session based on enrollments. This includes instructor scheduling. It also covers studio space allocation. Offering refunds for missed classes would be difficult. It would impact our planning. It would make class management challenging. The make-up option provides a solution. It allows you to still get your class time. This approach keeps our pricing fair. It helps us keep classes affordable. We invest in quality instruction. We maintain a great learning environment. These costs are fixed once a session starts. Refunds would destabilize our operations. They could lead to class cancellations. We want to avoid that. Our focus is on providing consistent classes. We want to ensure a good experience. Your commitment supports this.
