Terms and Conditions

Scope of services

All sessions are instructional and contemplative, intended for education and personal practice. Instructors are not healthcare providers, and the services do not constitute medical or psychological care, diagnosis, treatment, or therapy, nor do they create a therapist–client relationship. If you are experiencing a medical or mental-health condition, please seek advice from a licensed professional and use emergency resources in urgent situations.

By scheduling or attending a session, you confirm that you understand this scope and you agree to these terms.

Eligibility

• You are at least 18 years old or you have written consent from a parent or legal guardian.
• You can participate safely in light movement and seated practice, with your own judgment about comfort and limits.
• You agree to follow local laws and any site rules for the chosen location.

Not a crisis service

We do not provide emergency support. If you or someone near you is in danger, call your local emergency number immediately. In the United States, dial 911 or contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988.

Scheduling, rescheduling, cancellations
