Terms & Conditions

1. INTERPRETATION AND VARIATION

1.1 In the Terms and Conditions the following definitions apply:

  • “Diane Lee Yoga” means Diane Lee.

  • “Client” means any person that has signed a Consent Form, or taken one or more classes at the Studio, and includes Members.

  • “Member” means any person who has signed up to unlimited classes by monthly Auto-Pay (see “Subscription” below).

  • “Class” means a Yoga class (or any other style of class made available on the timetable) provided on or behalf of Diane Lee Yoga at the Studio.

  • “Workshop” means a meeting at which a group of people engage in intensive discussion and activity on a particular subject or project.

  • “Class Pass” means the Client is entitled to attend a number of classes purchased before the end of the expiry date of the pass.

  • “Consent Form” means the client has read the disclaimer and adheres to the guidelines.

  • “Studio” means the Yoga Studios of Diane Lee Yoga as published on her website from time to time.

  • “Terms and Conditions” as defined here.

  • “Website” means www.dianeleeyoga.com or affiliated websites.

1.2 The Terms and Conditions are incorporated into the DLY Health Disclaimer.

1.3 Diane Lee Yoga reserves the right to vary or revoke any of the Terms and Conditions from time to time which it may consider necessary or suitable for the regulation of internal affairs of the Studio and the conduct of Clients. Any such changes will be published on our websites and, until revoked, are binding on Clients.

1.4 The Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the laws of England and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

2. CLIENTS

2.1 Subject to condition 2.2, when a person has created an online account or ticked the terms and conditions online they shall become a Client subject to these Terms and Conditions.

2.2 Acceptance of a person as a Client is at the discretion of Diane Lee Yoga.

2.3 Diane Lee Yoga reserves the right to terminate with immediate effect, withdraw, suspend or refuse to renew the membership or class pass of any Client whose conduct is, or may deemed to be in Diane Lee Yoga’s reasonable opinion, damaging to the character of the Studio or acts or behaves in an aggressive or disrespectful manner towards any DLY students or teachers. This amounts to a breach of the Terms and Conditions or where such expulsion is otherwise to be in the interests of the other Clients of the Studio. Any Client so expelled shall forfeit all privileges to membership and purchase of any other classes or class passes/packages and shall not be entitled to any refund for any period during which his/her membership or class package is suspended or terminated.

2.4 DLY may run promotional introductory offers from time to time (directly or through an Agent). These offers are exclusively for New Clients who are not already registered (“Members/Clients”) with the Studio and are not for repeat use.

2.5 Unlimited pass members, who book and then do not attend said class, which is fully booked, may be charged an additional £14 (this is in alignment with class pass and drop-in clients). When unlimited members have a no show this is directly detrimental to the revenue of DLY, as it does not allow clients on the waitlist to attend and therefore pay for their chosen class.

3. STUDIO OPENING TIMES

3.1 Details of class times at the Studio may vary from time to time. Class times will be published by the DLY on her Website.

3.2 Diane Lee Yoga reserves the right to make changes to the schedule at its discretion.

3.3 The studio is not manned during the day and is open approx. 10-15 either side of class times for the teachers to facilitate client arrival and preparing for class.

3.4 Every class starts promptly, and the Studio’s door is locked then and for the duration of said class. This is for security reasons but also to allow those clients who have arrived on time to benefit from the full class they have booked.

3.5 Booking in advance is recommended, drop ins are welcome however you might be turned away if the class fully booked.

4. PAYMENT TERMS

4.1 Details of class prices, class passes and memberships are available on our website or shall be such prices as determined by Diane Lee Yoga from time to time.

4.2 Subject to any statutory right of cancellation, payments for classes, class passes, monthly subscription fees and annual payments are made non-refundable unless otherwise stated in the Terms and Conditions.

4.3 A Client may attend Classes according to the type of pass or membership.

4.4 Unless agreed by the Director of Diane Lee Yoga, Class Passes are for use by the person named on the Class Pass only and cannot be shared with, or transferred to, another person.

4.5 For Class Passes the relevant start date in determining the expiry shall be the date of the first visit after purchasing the Class Pass. Except for unlimited monthly purchases.

5. MONTHLY AUTOPAY

5.1 The provisions of this clause 5 shall only apply to Members that subscribe to unlimited classes by monthly Auto-Pay, direct debit, standing order or credit card (“Subscription”), via their bank. Any annual memberships set up by Diane Lee Yoga is relevant to this clause.

5.2 Any Member who purchases classes by Subscription will forfeit their membership if they fall behind in payment for more than 30 days. Such Members shall remain liable for any outstanding payments, Member(s) shall remain liable for any outstanding payments, and litigation may be necessary if thus results in failure to pay an outstanding debt to the business.

5.3 If any payment whatsoever under this Contract remains outstanding beyond the due date the DLY may add to the outstanding sum to be collected the reasonable and necessary costs incurred by the Company in employing a third party to collect the outstanding sum (as above).

5.4 An annual Member who purchases classes by Subscription, may at the discretion of Diane Lee Yoga, suspend their membership due to injury or illness (evidence to be provided). An administration fee of £25 will be payable by way of reduced monthly subscription or as otherwise indicated by Diane Lee Yoga. Recurring payments can only be paused if there is going to be a break of more than x1 calendar month.

5.5 Subscription fees must be paid in accordance with the Terms and Conditions irrespective of whether or not the Member uses the Studio’s facilities.

5.6 Subscription fees may be increased at Diane Lee Yoga’s discretion. Members shall be given no less than 10 working days’ written notice of any increase in their Subscription (unless otherwise agreed in their contract).

5.7 Any Member that purchases classes by Subscription cannot cancel their Subscription before the expiry of the initial term of the subscription (“the Minimum Subscription Period”).

5.8 The Minimum Subscription Period applicable will be the minimum term indicated by the particular membership (6 or 12 months), plus any pro-rate period from the date the membership is purchased to the last day of that month (the “Pro-Rate Period”). All autopay payments will be taken on the first day of each month. In addition, a single initial payment will be taken to reflect the payment required for the Pro-Rate Period.

5.9 The autopay payments will continue beyond the Minimum Subscription Period unless or until notice is given to terminate the Subscription by the Member. After the expiry of the Minimum Subscription Period a Member may cancel their Subscription at any time by written request to Diane Lee Yoga, by emailing yogaandmassage@hotmail.com, giving 1 calendar months’ notice from the desired cancellation date.

5.10 If a Member does not pay their Subscription for the Minimum Subscription Period (or cancels their Subscription during the Minimum Subscription Period) then Diane Lee Yoga is entitled to charge the Member for any outstanding Subscriptions in respect of the Minimum Subscription Period.

5.11 Members agree and acknowledge that by agreeing to the Minimum Subscription Period, they are being given preferential rates by Diane Lee Yoga and therefore it is fair and reasonable that Diane Lee Yoga charges them for any payments as described and referred to in 5.10 above.

5.12 It is the sole responsibility of the Member to cancel their monthly autopay with their bank on termination of their Subscription. Diane Lee Yoga cannot be held liable for any payments processed due to the failure of a Member to cancel their autopay.

5.13 Members who do not wish to accept a change proposed by Diane Lee Yoga to the Terms and Conditions or to pay an increase in any Subscription fees may cancel their Subscription by giving written notice to the Studio. The notice must be given before or within 28 days after the change to the Terms and Conditions or increase in subscription fees takes effect and must expire at the end of the relevant calendar month. The Member giving notice must continue to pay subscriptions at the rate current immediately prior to any proposed increase until the end of such notice period.

6. PERSONAL BELONGINGS

6.1 Personal belongings are brought into the Studio premises and may be left in the reception area or lockers, at the Client’s own risk. Diane Lee Yoga does not accept liability for any loss or damage whatsoever to such items. Clients are recommended to lock their belongings in the lockers provided.

6.2 No personal belongings are permitted in the studios.

7. ONLINE BOOKINGS

7.1 Online bookings must be cancelled up to 24-hours before the start of a class or this will be treated as a “late cancellation”. If you fail to turn up for the class booked, this will be treated as a “No Show”. A “Late Cancellation” or “No Show” will incur the following:

  • Unlimited Class Pass: Will result in a charge being made, if the class is full and no cancellation has been made.

  • 6 and 12 Class Pass Clients: Will result in the deduction of the class from your pass.

  • Drop In: you will be charged for the class.

  • Workshops: Anyone wishing to cancel a place on a workshop must do so before two weeks prior to the relevant workshop, under this time refunds are at the discretion of Diane Lee Yoga and the workshop leader/organiser.

7.3 If you book online you must sign in at reception at least 10 minutes before the class start time. Failure to do this may be treated as a ‘no show’ and your space may be given to someone else.

7.4 In the event of a ‘no show’ we may cancel or suspend your online booking rights and, in addition, if you have a Class Pass we will deduct one class.

7.5 Please remember that you must go to our online booking system and remove yourself from the class list if you cannot attend a class.
