Cancellations and Rescheduling of Private Lessons
Must be made up to 48hrs (two days) prior to the booking. No refunds within the 48hr (two days) mark. No exceptions. Please note that as long as the classes can run and Flow Dance is able to provide the venue, and/or instructor, we accept no liability to replace a lesson due to unforeseen circumstances such as bad weather conditions or strike action.
If you are unable to attend private lessons or have to reschedule you must do so 48hrs (two days) prior to the booking. You are not entitled to a refund if the cancellation or rescheduling is done within 48hrs (two days). You may discuss this further with your instructor if missing a class is due to unforeseeable events. If private lesson is missed within the package validation period, you must talk with your instructor in regards to making this booking up.
Cancellations and Rescheduling of Group Classes
Group classes are based on a drop-in system, so unless you have previously discussed your attendance with the instructor, there is no need to discuss missing a class.
If you have signed up for a class through the online system, the day of the class will be counted towards your pass. Classes can be cancelled through the online system up to 5 minutes before start time of the class. If a class is booked then purchased through the online system, then cancelled within the allotted time, the amount will be refunded to your Flow Dance account to be used at a later date, not as monetary payment back to you.
Service Provision & Consistency in Instruction
When you sign up for a membership or purchase a service at Flow Dance, you are not tied to a specific teacher. Instead, you gain access to a dynamic team of skilled instructors, each contributing their unique talents to enhance your dance journey. We affirm our responsibility to deliver high-quality Ballroom and Latin dance classes to all our members. Our commitment extends beyond individual teachers to the collective standard of excellence upheld by our entire instructional team. We understand that members may develop preferences for specific instructors. While we celebrate the individual styles and personalities of our teachers, it’s essential to note that we believe in the power of diversity in dance instruction. Exposure to various teaching styles and perspectives fosters a well-rounded dance education.
