Because class sizes are limited, all cancellations or rescheduling must be completed at least 4 hours before the class start time in order to retain your class credit.
If you cancel or reschedule less than 4 hours before class, or do not attend a class you have reserved, the class credit and payment will be forfeited.
When you reserve a class, that spot is held specifically for you. Our 4 hour cancellation policy allows enough time for another student to reserve the space if you are unable to attend.
Canceling or rescheduling is easy through the (purple) Wellness Living app. Simply click the dots next to your scheduled class and select Cancel.
No refunds are provided for late cancellations or no-shows.
