Refund and Cancellation Policy Overseas and Interstate Retreats
It is your responsibility to read and understand the cancellation policy before making a reservation. Naturally, no one registers with the intention of cancelling or postponing their retreat, but unexpected things do happen, so please purchase travel cancellation insurance once you have made your reservation.
Guest cancellation
If you cancel your retreat, Anahata Space will apply the portion of your payment as a credit for another retreat run by Anahata Yoga Space to be taken within 18 months of the original Retreat date or we will gladly transfer your payment to another guest.
Depending on when you cancel, cancellation penalties apply as follows:
If you have Covid or any flu like symptoms you need to ensure that you do not attend the retreat and produce a doctors certificate. This will allow you to change dates to another retreat at no charge within 18 months. If you cannot attend another retreat your deposit shall be withheld and you will receive refunds of the remaining price as stated above.
All deposits are non-refundable
Exceptions to our policy cannot be made for any reason. We also do not offer credit for a participant arriving late or leaving early.
If you cannot pay in full I can work a payment plan for you to be completed 40 days prior to retreat.
General Cancellation
Anahata Space reserves the right to cancel the Retreat prior to departure and will not be held liable for flights and such costs. If such cancellation is NOT due to circumstances beyond the control of Anahata Space, you may transfer your full Retreat payment to another retreat, or you may request a refund of payment. However, no compensation or refund will be made if cancellation arises before or during the trip from circumstances beyond our and/or our suppliers’ control (force majeure) such as war, strife, civil disobedience, strikes, terrorist activity, adverse weather conditions, fire, natural disasters or pandemics etc., unless Anahata Space is able to recover any related sums.
In the event of cancellation arising from circumstances beyond our control, trip-related sums recovered by Anahata Space will be distributed equitably to the participants after Anahata Space deducts all out-of- pocket costs and related expenses, constituting a settlement with you. Anahata Space is not responsible for expenses, including but not limited to lodging, meals and transportation, incurred for delays and/or detainments beyond the trip itinerary as a result of circumstances beyond our and/or our suppliers’ control as stated above. It is recommended that participants purchase their own trip/travel cancellation insurance.
Refund Policy
If the participant leaves the Retreat prior to its conclusion, refunds will not be made for the unused portion of the Retreat. No refunds will be made for any excursion, meal, yoga class or other activity that the participant misses or decides not to participate in for any reason.
Medical Insurance
Each participant is responsible for checking with their current health insurance provider and insuring that they have adequate medical coverage. Participants will be asked to provide a medical history including any current injuries or pre-existing conditions, as well as an emergency contact name and telephone number. Once the deposit has been received, a health form will be sent out for you to fill out, sign and return. Anahata Space reserves the right to refuse acceptance of your deposit to participate in the Retreat based on the medical information provided. Should this occur, you will be informed and all monies will be refunded in full.
Release/Responsibility
I agree that the Anahata Space and its representatives, except for their gross negligence or wilful misconduct, shall not be held liable for any injury, damage, loss, delay or irregularity that may be occasioned for any reason to me, including, but not limited to any defect in a vehicle, the acts or default of any company or person engaged in conveying a participant, acts of God, terrorism, acts of war, or detention; delays or expenses arising from quarantine, strikes, thefts, pilferage, force majeure, civil disturbances, government restrictions or regulations, accidents by aircraft, boat, bicycle or motor vehicle, or in any restaurant or accommodation; failure of any means of transportation to arrive or depart as scheduled or changes in transit, or villa services; missed airline or other transportation connections; or for additional expenses resulting from changes in exchange rates, tariffs, or itinerary.
The participant agrees to assume any risks associated with the Retreat and agrees no liability will be attached to Anahata Space, its employees or agents. By paying the deposit, the participant releases Anahata Space and its representatives from any such responsibility or liability. It is therefore suggested participants purchase their own cancellation, property damage (including luggage), and accident insurance.
Photographs/Videotapes
Anahata Space will at times be photographing and/or videotaping the Retreat. Anahata Space wishes to use such photographs/videos in its advertising, displays, publicity materials, and publications.
