All guests are urged to secure their own life and travel insurance. It is imperative that your travel insurance extends coverage to the activities of this retreat, encompassing unforeseen cancellations, illnesses, losses, and other typical risks. Additionally, any damages incurred to the property must be fully reimbursed by the respective guest.

Retreat Changes

In the unlikely event that we are unable to host a retreat and must cancel, rest assured that you will be promptly notified, and a 100% refund will be issued. In cases where a teacher substitution is deemed necessary, we reserve the right to provide an equally qualified and suitable replacement.

However, it is essential to note that we are not accountable for any expenses incurred by participants in preparation for the retreat. This includes but is not limited to airline tickets, loss of work, visa fees, and other costs associated with trip preparation. We appreciate your understanding of these circumstances and recommend considering travel insurance to mitigate potential losses.

Travel Arrangements

Your travel arrangements are a crucial component of your retreat experience, and it's essential to manage them responsibly. Please be aware that all travel arrangements are your personal responsibility and come at your own cost. We cannot be held liable for any consequences arising from delays or cancellations with companies you've engaged for travel-related services. Additionally, any irregularities in your travel documentation required for the retreat are beyond our control.
