TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1) Personal Information
Your personal information is stored securely in our systems. Only employees, or authorised representatives of ArGo Movement Studio, will have access to your information and will not be shared with third parties.
2) Payment Policy
We request payment in advance on a monthly basis. No refunds are given for days when the student is not in attendance.
Late Payment: Should fees not be settled within two weeks of the starting date, the student will be asked to cease to attend.
Private lessons: A 24hr cancellation notice in writing via email to Argo Movement must be given for private classes. Otherwise, fees will remain payable. Should you give 24hrs notice, Argo Movement will reschedule the private lesson.
Workshops: Places are only secured once full payment has been made. No refunds apply to all workshops unless it’s canceled by Argo Movement due to a fault on the company’s behalf.
Cancellation of Classes: If classes are canceled due to the fault of the company the time will be made up. This will be done at the discretion of Argo Movement. We will not be financially liable for classes or dates canceled due to events beyond our reasonable control. We retain the right to change the advertised program of classes in the event of illness or other circumstances beyond our control such as bad weather or pandemics.
Argo Movement reserves the right to change fees without prior notice. However, we will endeavour to inform participants of any changes as soon as possible.
3) Monthly Payment
Your card information is processed with secure encryption.
Monthly payment is activated on the date of purchase, and the membership fee is automatically deducted from your registered card each month until the contract is terminated.
You are responsible for ensuring that the information associated with your member account is kept up to date, and that you follow any instructions given by us to do so.
You can contact us by phone or email to update your card info. You can also change the withdrawal date by contacting us.
4) Cancellation of Monthly Notice Policy
Notice of four weeks must be given in writing if there is a wish to cease attending lessons. Fees will still be due even if the student is unable to attend class until the completion of the notice period. Fees will not be refunded if a student decides to leave during the course. Should a student leave for medical purposes (a Doctor’s letter will be required in these circumstances) membership may be paused.
5) Attendance Policy
Student are expected to meet a 80% minimum attendance. Absence indication of the reason must be sent to the teacher if for any reason you cannot attend.
6) Lateness Policy
Students are expected to arrive on time. Dance is a physical activity that requires the body to be warmed up in order to execute movement safely.
7) Dress Code & Lost Property Policy
Students must present themselves in a tidy manner at all times.
ArGo Movement Studio does not accept responsibility for items lost or stolen, although anything we do find will be placed in lost property.
- Due to the close proximity of participants during classes, personal hygiene is essential.
8) Behaviour Policy
During sessions, students are expected to behave in a polite manner. They are expected to listen and we discourage unnecessary talking. If a student is causing disruption to others learning they may be asked to leave the lesson.
Any unacceptable behaviour from students will not be tolerated. Unacceptable behaviour may result in exclusion from current and/or further activities.
- Recording during class/event is strictly prohibited, unless permission is given by the instructor or a Representative.
- Asking instructors private dance questions during social dance events is not appropriate. All questions should be asked during class or small breaks between classes. Alternatively, booking private lessons with the instructor will afford participants an appropriate time and location for the question to be answered.
9) Media Use Rights Permission
We ask attendees of Argo Movement to grant permission to take photographs and videos of the students. No personal information is ever used or linked to the photographs.
We ask for full rights to use the images resulting from the photography/video filming, and any reproductions or adaptations of the images for fundraising, publicity or other purposes to help achieve the group’s aims. This might include (but is not limited to), the right to use them in their printed and online publicity, social media, press releases and funding applications.
