All sales are final. We do not provide refunds to ticket holders. We require 24 hours' notice to change your ticket to an event of equal or lesser value if you are unable to make a class after you have purchased a ticket.

The different energy techniques and sound therapies we use are known to have positive health effects but are not to be used as a substitute for medical treatment. We advise all participants to be cleared by a medical provider before attending. The healing modalities are known to lower blood pressure. We advise all participants to be well-hydrated and come to class with a half-full stomach. Overeating or attending on an empty stomach may cause symptoms of dizziness, nausea, and inability to relax deeply.

We recommend arriving 5-10 minutes before classes start to give you plenty of time to find Suite 50, use the restroom and get comfortable. Our studio doors lock at the beginning of each class and latecomers can't not be accommodated.
