Reservation and Cancellation

By making a reservation for services offered on this site, you confirm that you have read and understood the following:

Reservations

Weekly class reservations and payments are made through each yoga studio's own website.
If I organize online sessions, you can sign up for these classes via email at pinja.sivonen@hotmail.fi. Once you have reserved and paid for your spot, you will receive the link to the session about an hour before the class begins.

Cancellations and Refunds

Payments made are non-refundable unless the event is canceled by the organizer or due to government regulations.
In case of cancellation, you can always donate your spot and ticket to someone else. For online events, please inform me of your absence at least 2 hours before the session starts, so I can, if necessary, send the new invitation link to the person attending on your behalf.

The same policy applies to cancellations and refunds for private sessions. In case of illness, the session can be rescheduled if you notify me about the situation at least 12 hours before the agreed session time.
