If you do not mark yourself absent you will not be able to book a make up.

Ill absences can now be marked 8 weeks before but no less than 30 minutes prior to the lesson. Once you mark yourself absent this can not be changed.

‍

Make up lessons can now be booked within 3 months of the marked absence. You will be able to book up a make lesson up to 7 days ahead of the class time.

‍

If a make up lesson is missed or not book in, this lesson will be forfeited.

‍

You can not change the time of a make up once you have booked it in.

‍

Make up lessons are non-refundable or transferrable.

‍

Make up lessons are subject to program availability. We do not guarantee you will be able to book a make up at a time you desire or that a place will be available.
