Deposit

The price of the Yoga Teacher Training will be set out in your Booking. Our prices may change at any time, but price changes will not affect a Booking that we have confirmed with you.

We require a non-refundable €500 deposit (incl. transfer fee) to secure your booking and process your application. If an applicant is not accepted the deposit will immediately be refunded, minus 50€ for processing fees.

If the training courses do not take place because of only 8 students or Force Majeure, we will refund your deposit in full, minus 50€ for processing fees.

In all other cases, we cannot refund the deposit. We will deduct the deposit from the total tuition of the course.

The balance of the course fee must be paid up to 1 month prior to the start date. If not, the student’s place may be given to someone on the waiting list and the deposit forfeited.

Bank transfer fees are to be paid by the students. All payments should be made net of any bank charges and transfer fees.

Cancellations & Refunds

If you cancel your training for personal, health or professional reasons after the training has started, you may finish the training in another Ayama Yoga Training, without any extra costs. (As long as you have paid the standard cost.) The commenced training is due in full, there are no returns of payment once you have started the training.

If you submit a cancellation or termination of training, this needs to be received in writing by us. You may email ayamayogatraining@gmail.com with your cancellation request.
