Agreement

If you are booking and paying for group classes online via our online booking system, our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point this document will constitute a legally binding agreement between us.  If you are booking private tuition sessions, by attending your first private tuition session with us this document will constitute a legally binding agreement between us.

 

Your health

2. We are not medical professionals and cannot advise on whether you should join the classes or attend a private tuition session or not. If you have any concerns at all about your health and undertaking the  group classes or private tuition sessions, you should consult your doctor or other medical professional. You should notify us at the outset and throughout your attendance at any private tuition sessions or group classes of any medical conditions that you have or any concerns that you have about participating in the classes or private tuition sessions. If we have concerns about your health and/or ability to participate in a private tuition session or any of the group classes, we may end your session or require you to leave the class.

 

Suitable attire

3. You must wear suitable attire for undertaking a private tuition session or group class including wearing grip socks at all times. If you do not do so, we reserve the right to end your session or require you to leave the class.

 

Bookings and cancellations

4. All group classes must be booked via our online booking system. Private tuition sessions should be booked directly with Holly Thrower. 

5. Any private tuition sessions booked in blocks must be utilised within their relevant booking period which commences on the date of booking.  For blocks of 5 private sessions, this period is 9 weeks and for blocks of 10 this period is 16 weeks. Subject to the 24 hour cancellation notice period at clause 11 below, any private tuition sessions not taken within the relevant booking period will expire.

6. Group classes booked in blocks online are booked for their relevant booking period as notified on the online booking system at the time of booking.  This booking period commences on the date of booking. Subject to the 24 hour cancellation notice priced at clause 11 below, group classes can be cancelled and rearranged via the online booking system within the relevant booking period but following that any classes not taken will expire.

7. The online booking system for group classes operates a waiting list for all of our classes which are fully booked.  If somebody cancels a class the person at the top of the waiting list will automatically be put in the class if the cancellation takes place more than 24 hours in advance of the class and an email will be sent to you notifying you of this.  If the cancellation takes place within 24 hours of the class then an email will be sent to the person at the top of the waiting list and you will need to claim the available spot within 30 minutes of receiving the email. The cancellation policy set out at clause 11 below applies if you are put into a class from a waiting list.

8. Our group classes and private tuition sessions are scheduled for 60 minutes. Private tuition sessions will take place at the date and time agreed between us and group classes will take place at the times and on the dates set out in our schedule on our website or on our online booking system. We reserve the right to change or cancel any agreed time and date for a private tuition session or our timetables and scheduled group classes and will provide you with as much notice as possible of this. You will not be charged for any private tuition session or group class which is cancelled by us and a refund for that private tuition session or class will be credited to your account with us. Please ensure that your email address and other contact details are up to date at all times and email us at holly@hollythrower.com if you need to provide us with updated details.

You may not assign your private tuition session or place in a class to another person without our express agreement.

10. We may ask you to complete a questionnaire before we meet for the first time and at other times during the provision of our services to you.  If you book group classes via our online booking system you may be asked to complete a questionnaire via the online booking system.
