SCHEDULING AND MAKEUP LESSONS:
-
If you need to cancel a lesson, 24-hour notice is required. If you cancel the lesson with less than 24-hour notice, you will be charged for the lesson and will not receive a makeup lesson. 

-
If you arrive late for your designated lesson time, you will receive a shortened lesson for the time remaining.
-
If a lesson is canceled, for any reason, a maximum of one makeup lesson will be granted per month. The makeup lesson must be completed within 30 days or it will be forfeited. If you do not show up for the makeup lesson, it will be forfeited. It is the rider/parent’s responsibility to work with us to reschedule lessons. We don’t have time to chase or remind you. Please note: Because of the complexities of scheduling, every attempt will be made to try and find an additional time for the student; however, there are no guarantees.
-
Any lesson cancelled due to something under our control will be counted towards a makeup.​
-
Any lesson cancelled due to something not in our control, i.e. weather or illness is not counted towards a makeup lesson UNLESS that is the only missed lesson in the month.
-
Vacations: If you are going on vacation, it is helpful if you let us know ahead of time and we will get you in for a lesson prior to your leaving. If we are told at the last minute, this will only be counted towards a makeup lesson if this is the only missed lesson in the month.
-
-
Taking a Break from Lessons for the Summer: If you are going to miss lessons for 30 days or more, your lesson spot can only be reserved by paying 1/2 of the monthly tuition. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee an open spot in our program when you return. We have a waiting list of families wanting to take lessons here and we cannot afford to lose the revenue stream.
