Is there a payment plan available?
Yes. You have the choice of paying in full at the time of your booking, or alternately we can organise an interest free payment plan for you.

A 25% deposit is required to secure your booking. The remainder you can pay in monthly instalments. Please note full payment must be paid no later than one month before your first workshop.
What if I book a class then see something else I prefer, can I transfer?
Yes of course you can, providing there are places available and your new class is of a similar value. If not you'll need to pay the difference. You are able to swap classes up until 14 days prior to the show.
What if I can't make it, am I able to get a refund?
In the event there aren't sufficient student numbers to make the class economically viable, or the teacher is unable to make it due to being unwell we will provide you with as much notice as possible and provide you with the choice of an immediate 100% refund or option to transfer into another workshop, the choice is yours! In the event you aren't able to make it you are welcome to transfer your ticket to someone else. We begin preparations for the workshops months before the show, therefore refunds unfortuantely aren't available.
