The Terms & Conditions shall be governed by the Laws of Scotland and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Scottish Courts.
Membership / Studio Users
When a person has signed a registration Form or agreed to the Terms & Conditions by ticking the corresponding box online, they shall become a Member or a Studio User. Acceptance of a person as a Studio User is at the discretion of the Company.
The Studio reserves the right to withdraw, suspend or refuse to renew the membership of any client whose conduct is, or according to the Studio’s reasonable opinion, is deemed to be injurious to the character of the Studio; amounts to a breach of the Terms & Conditions; or where such expulsion is otherwise to be in the interests of the other Members of the Studio. Any Member so expelled shall forfeit all privileges to membership and shall not be entitled to a refund for any period during which their membership is suspended.
The Studio may run promotional introductory offers from time to time, either directly or indirectly through a third-party platform. These offers are exclusively for new clients who are not already registers (i.e. “Members/Users/Clients”) with the studio and are not for repeat use.
Studio Opening Times
Details of class times at all Studios may vary. Class times will be published for all venues on our website, on our social media platforms and our booking platform (Momence).
Payment Terms
Details of class and membership prices are available on our website(s) and app and shall be as determined by the Company.
Any payment made for classes at the studio does not entitle the payee to attend classes at any studio other than those operated by the Studio (in the event that they are available). There may be restrictions on classes at studios operated by the Company, if the pricing options differs from all other classes, but the Company takes it upon itself to advertise this as such.
Subject to any statutory right of cancellation, payments for classes, monthly subscription fees and annual payments are made non-refundable unless otherwise stated in the Terms and Conditions.
Workshops, Retreats, Private classes, and Programmess at the Studio are non-refundable. Services may be credited back to an account due to exceptional circumstance if notice is given with a minimum of 2 days prior to the Workshop date. Documentation must be attached to any credit request made due to exceptional circumstances, which may include certain medical/personal circumstance, but exceptions remain at the Studio’s discretion. Deposits remain non-refundable. Private appointments are non-refundable if cancelled within 24h of reservation time.
Monthly Autopay
The provision of this, Clause 5, shall only apply to members that subscribe to classes by monthly or yearly autopay i.e., “Subscriptions”.
There will be a minimum subscription period of three months for Unlimited memberships. Seeing as members benefit from preferential rates granted by the Studio, it is understood as reasonable that the Studio charges them for all payments due over the course of the minimum subscription period, regardless of whether a client requests to cancel before the end of the minimum subscription period.
After the minimum commitment of 3 months, an Unlimited member may cancel their subscription at any time by using their cancellation options on their Arketa dashboard.
A Member, who has a monthly membership which is any other membership other than the Unlimited Membership, can cancel their membership at any time by giving a minimum of 1 month notice via email. A client who wishes to subscribe again after having cancelled their membership will have to purchase a new membership contract and may be asked to join a waitlist.
Subscription fees must be paid in accordance with the Terms and Conditions irrespective of whether the client uses the Studio’s facilities.
Memberships now include an auto rollover of unused credits. These credits are valid only within the term of a Member's Membership i.e. upon cancellation of a Membership, any remaining unused credits on the Membership are lost/forfeited.
Members shall be given no less than 30 working days’ emailed notice of any increase in their subscription (unless otherwise agreed in their contract). Members are responsible for ensuring their contract information, billing information and emergency contact information is accurate and up to date.
Members who do not wish to accept changes to the Terms and Conditions or any increase in subscription fees proposed by the Studio, may cancel their subscription by giving emailed notice to the Studio. Notice must be given before or within 30 days of the change to the Terms and Conditions or increase in fees and must expire at the end of the relevant calendar month. The Member giving notice must continue to pay subscription fees at the rate current immediately prior to any proposed increase until the end of such notice period.
If a Member fails to pay their monthly subscription payment within 10 days of it being due – and with no contact regarding this – their membership will be automatically cancelled and any remaining credits on membership forfeited and class bookings cancelled.
Personal Belongings
Personal belongings which are brought into any Studio premises are the responsibility of the client and the Company does not access any liability for any loss or damage incurred to such items.
Although we will always endeavour to return any lost property to its owner, we do not take responsibility for any items held in lost property. Such items will be kept until claimed but for no longer than one week after which, the items will either be donated to charity or disposed of.
To comply with the Civic Government of Scotland Act regarding lost property, valuable items of lost property will be passed to the local police station at the earliest convenience.
Personal belongings of any kind, including mobile phones, are not allowed in the studio during class time unless a manager or teacher explicitly approves it.

We reserve the right to allocate spaces to others on the waitlist if we have not heard from a client prior to the class starting and/or we have been unable to get in touch with said client.
