To Make a Reservation:
$350 non-refundable deposit required at reservation; balance due 8 weeks prior to course. If reservation is less than 8 weeks from course, full amount is required at time of reservation. Prices do not include Virginia tax and County hospitality tax we are required to pay. Registration for the courses are on a first-come/first-served basis – the $350 deposit holds your spot and is applied to the balance total.
To secure your place for one of the courses, please complete the Booking Form, pay the deposit via PayPal and submit online. When we receive your booking, we will be in contact to confirm details (or call 612-221-1140). If you are within 8 weeks prior to the course when signing up, fill out the reservation form, pay the deposit and we will be in contact with you for the balance of the payment.
Cancellation Policy: Deposit always non-refundable. If cancellation occurs after the balance is paid 8 weeks prior to the course, there is NO REFUND, for any reason. We understand that last minute emergencies, illnesses or conflicts come up that cannot be controlled, and we are truly sorry, but due to committed expenses and limited spaces for our courses, we are unable to make exceptions. To protect from an unforeseen personal emergency should it arise, you might consider purchasing travel insurance (available through various sources).
If a course is cancelled by us, you will be given the choice to transfer to another date, or have all money paid refunded to you.
Cancelling and Transferring to another Date: Transfers to another course date might be possible. 1) If cancellation occurs after deposit is paid, a $50 transfer fee will apply to transfer to another course date. 2) If cancellation occurs in the “8 weeks prior” to the course date (balance has already been paid), transfer option will only apply if the cancelled spot is filled by another registrant. If the spot is not filled, the only way transfer is possible is if up to a week before the course date of interest to transfer to, there is still an open spot, then transfer is possible.
