How to Pay For Your Trial session

All trial sessions are requested to be pre-paid via your online banking. Payment details are given on the booking information.

Places are provisionally held for 24 hours awaiting Payment. Enquiries are random and frequent and peak times of year so cannot be held indefinitely.

Trial session payments are non refundable – but can be transferred to a different class within the original booking week.

What if I join and can’t attend my class?

Most classes and courses now charge by booking in advance to keep running, but there are no options if you can’t make it to your usual class. HOWEVER – all students can swap to other classes for genuine reasons. No cancellation of your usual class or additional booking is required, it’s an honesty box policy.

BONUS OPTION if you cannot attend any class at all, any week you do not have lose it. You can if you wish, catch up by attending 2 sessions in any ONE week that you choose, as long as you are a member. You don’t have to take extra classes immediately i.e the week following, if you don’t want to, and there’s no rush to catch up. Attending more than one yoga session a week can give you better results, and many students find this helpful.

DO YOU HAVE CHILDREN – membership BENEFIT FOR SCHOOL HOLIDAYS -MINIMUM AGE 10 years upwards – All children from the age of 10 years upwards can join classes and can attend FREE OF CHARGE in school holiday time only. outside school holidays the standard term fee applies. NO NEED TO MISS YOUR CLASS if you can’t get child care in the holidays.

see the Children’s page Children in Class for further information. (under the More Tab)

Everyone can have full use of their membership and never miss a session – you choose

Benefits of membership

Classes are offered at a simple and affordable rate for four consecutive weeks. There’s no long-term commitment needed.

Awaken with yoga provides 4 classes each week. With a membership, you can attend different classes if your schedule changes, knowing a spot is saved for you. Just come and enjoy!

Having a membership keeps you motivated to attend. With motivation, classes are well-attended, creating a great atmosphere, and you’re more likely to feel the benefits of yoga. When paying as you go, it’s easy to make excuses not to attend—right?

You have a guaranteed spot each week, and class sizes are limited for better teaching with an experienced instructor in good venues. No more wasting time each week trying to get in or risking being turned away.

You also receive a Health and Safety induction and I understand your goals and reasons for attending.

What if classes are full on enquiry

It’s worthwhile to be patient and join the waiting list if classes are full because places can open at any time. People leave for various reasons. Full classes indicate good teaching quality and enjoyment. There’s no fee for registering and waiting. If your situation changes while you wait, you’re not required to take the spot when it becomes available; it will simply go to someone else. Just let me know when I reach out. You can always get in touch with me later when it’s a better time for you.

Holiday Seasons

There are several close downs each year at various times: summer is 4 weeks, Christmas is 3 weeks

Are you Expecting a baby?

Sorry, pregnant ladies are not permitted in general mainstream classes. Pregnancy Yoga is specialised. You are always welcome once your baby has arrived, and it will benefit & compliment motherhood greatly.

COVID-19 Information & Guarantee:

Your classes are safe. In the event classes have to close due to any future lockdowns, your unused classes will get carried over to when classes reopen. It is up to you to return and use them. The yoga school has been running since 2002 and survived the pandemic, which saw three lock down periods and each time students eagerly returned to enjoy their classes once again.
