Booking and Cancellation Policy
Retreats are booked on a first-come-first-serve basis, with full payment required. 50% is refundable up to 1 month prior to the retreat, but within the last month the total sum of the retreat is non-refundable.
If you cannot attend, you are allowed to sell your space to a friend or someone else at your end. The retreats are in high demand, so once we are full (typically by a month prior), we turn away other retreater requests and are at a loss for any cancellations. In most cases, we are happy to issue a 50% credit for lost deposits towards a future retreat.
