Yoga Heals Us Policies

The policies listed here are intended to provide guidance and to answer common questions.   Registration: Please register for the class and location that you will attend most often. The makeup policy was designed to help you stay committed to taking care of your health and well-being by giving you the flexibility to make up classes at multiple locations, days and times. If you find that you are making up more classes than you are attending, please sign up for the class that you actually go to. If the class that you transfer into costs more due to residency or location you will be charged the difference. Classes that do not meet minimum enrollment may be canceled. Late enrollment is prorated. This means that if you join the class after the session has started, you don’t pay for the classes you have already missed. You do pay for the remaining classes in the session. Classes that are missed during the session, for any reason, can be made up in accordance with the Makeup Policy. Class Etiquette: Comfort and Arrival Wear loose fitting, comfortable clothing. Please do not eat 2 hours prior to class.  If you must, keep it light, such as a piece of fruit. Inform me of any physical limitations or health concerns. NO FRAGRANCES PLEASE. Some students have allergies. Please refrain from using scented lotions, etc. Shhh...To Minimize Disturbances NO ELECTRONIC DEVICES PLEASE. Please remember to turn off your cell phones and anything that beeps. Please arrive a few minutes early. Late Arrivals and Early Departures If you must be late, please do come. Please wait outside the room until you are ready for Yoga – shoes and outer clothing removed, keys put away, mat unrolled and ready to place on the floor. Please do not enter during the centering and beginning OM. Your fellow students will love you for considering their inner sanctity! If you must leave early, please remove quietly to the outer room & pack up there. Make-ups: Students must call me when classes are missed in order to make up these classes. Missed classes are non-refundable and must be made up within the same session dates. One make up class may be carried over into the next session. Make up classes that are not used by the end of the next session are forfeit.  Make up classes may be used to attend classes other than the one that you regularly attend.  For example, if you regularly attend on Monday at 5, you may make up your missed class on Wednesday at 7.  Make up classes have no cash value and can not be used toward payment of any class. I know how hard it is to get to class sometimes due to illness, conflicts, weather, etc.  Missed classes can be made up at almost all other classes during the same session dates that you have paid for. Some classes may be full. When in doubt, call ahead. Recognizing that sometimes we must make choices to do other things, I hope that you will take advantage of my makeup policy when you are able. Cancellations: Ledyard Parks & Recreation classes will be canceled when Ledyard Schools are closed due to weather.  These classes will be made up at the end of the session when at all possible.  Check TV Channel 3.

Montville Senior Center classes will be canceled with Montville Schools are closed due to weather. Preston Parks & Recreation classes at St. James Church will be canceled at my discretion. I will attempt to contact students who are registered for the effected classes and I will post a message on my voice mail.  When in doubt, call me at (860) 204-0797 or miss the class at your discretion and make it up.  Classes that are canceled will be made up or given a credit at the end of the session. Yoga for MS classes at Independence Physical Therapy will be canceled at my discretion. I will attempt to contact students who are registered and I will post a message on my voice mail.  When in doubt, call me at (860) 204-0797 or miss the class at your discretion.  Classes that are canceled will be made up or given a credit at the end of the session. Free Classes: I know longer give out Free Class Cards. If you have an unused Free Class Card, this how you can use it: To use a Free Class Card you must be a registered student. The Free Class is in addition to your regular class. For example, if you are registered for Monday at 5:00, you may use the Free Class for Wednesday at 5:00 or another class offered during the week. You may also give the card to a friend to sample a class. Testimonials: Click here to read what others have said about classes, workshops, individual lessons and more.
