Retreat Selection Process:
(Recommended to be more than 270 days from the start of desired retreat date)
Studio/Instructor(s) work with Belize Yoga to determine their retreat package, estimated size, and dates. A contract (Retreat Reservation Agreement) is drawn up by Belize Yoga that includes compensation structure, benchmark details, and cancellation fees. Retreat is not guaranteed until studio/instructor(s) returns signed contract and deposit.
180 Day Enrollment Benchmark
Student enrollment should be approximately 50% of the estimated retreat size at this time. If less than 50% of the estimated retreat size has been met, Belize Yoga and Studio/Instructor(s) will work together to reduce the estimated retreat size.
90 Day Enrollment Benchmark
Student enrollment should be approximately 100% of the estimated retreat size at this time. Any open rooms are released, and additional registrations are on a space-permitted basis.
45 Day Enrollment Benchmark
Student enrollment will be closed and final student count is determined at this time. Any registration by students after this point is not guaranteed.
Instructor Cancellation Fees
Cancellation of retreat by instructor more than 180 days prior to retreat = return of deposit less $250 cancellation fee
Cancellation of retreat by instructor less than 180 days prior to retreat = loss of deposit
Any registered students will be offered a refund of their deposit if the retreat is cancelled by the instructor more than 90 days prior to retreat.
Student Cancellations
Studio/Instructor(s) do not receive any credit towards minimums or compensation for any students that register and then cancel at any time prior to retreat start date.
Resort/Tour Modifications
If at anytime between contract signing and retreat start date, Belize Yoga determines that a partner resort /tour company is not meeting service and/or facility requirements (under construction, fire or weather damage, change of ownership, etc...) Belize Yoga reserves the right to substitute an alternate partner resort/tour company of equal or greater quality.
Changes to itinerary
All group events, activities, and transfers are paid for at time of booking. Therefore, Belize Yoga is unable to offer refunds for any unused portion of the retreat. If weather or any other event causes an excursion to be cancelled, Belize Yoga will make every effort to reschedule that event or find an alternative, but cannot offer refunds for any itinerary changes or cancellations.
In the event that your arrival to or departure from the retreat is delayed for any reason (including, but not limited to: weather, mechanical difficulties, airline delays, political unrest, etc.), Belize Yoga cannot offer any refunds or compensation for any losses incurred. It is the responsibility of the traveler to obtain travel insurance if they so desire. Belize Yoga will make every attempt adjust the retreat and provide assistance in such instances.
Flights
All flight tickets are purchased in the name of the traveler and are the property of that traveler. The traveler is responsible for any changes they make to their ticket, including rescheduling in case of missed flight. If a traveler cannot attend the retreat, they own their plane ticket and, if applicable, can arrange with the airline to transfer or reschedule their ticket. Depending upon airline policies, Belize Yoga may be able to change the name on a ticket, and will assist in doing so if a traveler must cancel and wishes to transfer their ticket to a different participant.
Checked baggage allotments vary by airline. It is the responsibility of the traveler to pay for any checked baggage fees not included in their airline ticket. Belize Yoga will purchase the base flight (including taxes and fees), but any additions not included on ticket (such as in-flight meals, beverages and checked baggage) are payable by the traveler. A Belize exit fee of $39.50 is not included in flight cost and must be paid by the traveler at
the airport upon departing Belize.
Any student or instructor wishing to travel on dates outside of the retreat dates can do so for a $95-195 fee, depending on airport and travel dates. After flights are issued, any member of the group that arrives late or leaves the group early is subject to pay for all transportation arrangements. Belize Yoga can help arrange for this transportation.
Documentation
A valid passport is required to enter Belize. American and Canadian citizens do not need a visa to enter to Belize, but Canadians transferring in the U.S. en route may need an American visa. It is the responsibility of each traveler to ensure that they have all proper documentation for the duration of the retreat.
Additional services and charges
Travelers are responsible for all additional charges incurred at resorts that are not specified in packages. These items can include, but are not limited to, any additional food or beverages, additional tours or spa treatments, laundry service, communication services, etc. It is the responsibility of the traveler to understand what items are included in the retreat, and what items are additional. Any such charges must be paid before departure of the the resort.
Changes to policies
Belize Yoga reserves the right to review and adjust terms and policies. A retreat will refer to the terms posted at time of departure.
