We understand that life happens and sometimes things come up which cause you to cancel your registration.
This might or might not be applicable for you, but it’s quite common for people who are coming for the first time to get cold feet within a few days of the workshop. From our point of view, this is a good sign — if it happens, it shows that one’s process is coming up, and there is no better time to do breathwork than when one has a lot churning around inside. This is one of the reasons that we require advanced registration- the financial commitment often helps people move past the cold feet stage.
And from a practical point of view, we commit to hiring additional facilitators, renting an appropriately sized room, purchasing art supplies etc etc based on the number of participants registered. For weekend workshops, we pay the venue and the caterers a non-refundable fee to reserve your room and allow the caterers to purchase the appropriate amount of food. In addition, the workshops nearly always sell out and if you cancel at the last minute it is generally impossible to fill your spot because people who wanted to attend have already made other plans.
All that said, if you need to cancel your registration, you have several options depending on how long before the workshop you cancel.
MINI-BREATHWORK INTRODUCTORY EVENTS: Registration Fees for this particular event are non-refundable.
FOR ONE DAY WORKSHOPS: If you cancel more than 20 days in advance of the workshop, your money will be returned less a $25.00 cancellation/processing fee or you can apply the entire amount to a future workshop within the next year. If you cancel less than 20 days prior to the workshop and more than 10 days before the workshop your money will be returned less a $50.00 cancellation/processing fee or you can apply the entire amount less $25.00 to a future workshop within the next 12 months. If you cancel 10 days or less before the workshop no refunds or credits of any type will be available. In addition, there is no guarantee of any specific type of result or experience from the workshop and once the workshop has begun, there is no refund or credit available under any conditions.
