Cancellation & Refund Policy
Last updated: [1Β January 2026]
This page summarizes how cancellations, refunds, and deposits work at Chaitanya Vinyasa. It should be read together with our full Terms & Conditions, which govern in the event of any inconsistency.
Deposits
Deposits paid to secure a place in an in-person training, retreat, or immersive program are non-refundable, except where required by mandatory consumer protection law. Deposits cover costs we commit to well in advance β venues, faculty, accommodation arrangements, and materials β that we cannot recover if a place is cancelled.
If you're unable to attend, you may transfer your deposit to another Chaitanya Vinyasa training within 12 months, subject to a USD 200 administration fee and any difference in tuition or accommodation pricing for the new training.
Remaining Balance Refunds
If you cancel after paying your deposit and some or all of the remaining tuition, refunds of the remaining balance only follow this schedule, based on how much notice you give before the training start date:
| Notice Given | Refund of Remaining Balance |
|---|---|
| 90+ days before training | 50% |
| 60β89 days before training | 30% |
| 59 days or fewer before training | No refund |
| No-show | No refund |
| Leaving a training early | No refund |
All cancellation requests must be submitted in writing to [email protected].
Digital Products & Online Courses
Digital products β online courses, recorded trainings, digital downloads, and on-demand membership content β are non-refundable once access has been granted, except where required by applicable law. Please review course previews and descriptions carefully before purchasing.
Memberships
Memberships renew automatically until cancelled. You can cancel anytime, effective at the end of your current billing period, by contacting us at [email protected]. Fees already charged for the current billing period are non-refundable.
If We Cancel a Training
If Chaitanya Vinyasa cancels a training, you'll be offered a transfer to another available training or a full refund of amounts paid (excluding third-party accommodation costs, addressed below). Refunds are processed within up to 180 days.
Accommodation
Where we arrange or recommend accommodation, it's offered as a convenience only. Accommodation providers are independent third parties, and refunds for accommodation are governed by their own cancellation policies β not this policy. We recommend reviewing the provider's policy directly and considering travel insurance.
Force Majeure
Where war, pandemic, natural disaster, government restriction, or another event beyond our reasonable control prevents a training from proceeding, we'll offer a transfer or refund where reasonably possible, but the timelines and limitations above continue to apply. Personal circumstances (illness, travel disruption) affecting only your own attendance are covered by the standard refund schedule above, not this section.
Questions
If you have questions about a specific booking or need to request a cancellation, contact us at [email protected] and we'll help directly.
This policy is a summary of the refund and cancellation provisions in our full Terms & Conditions. In the event of any conflict between this page and the Terms & Conditions, the Terms & Conditions apply, except where mandatory consumer protection law requires otherwise.
