Class Cancellations:

In the event that a class must be canceled, we will attempt to get a substitute for that class. If we cannot, we have built one missed class into our pricing. If we must cancel more than one of the same class, we will schedule a makeup class when our schedule permits. We try to keep makeup classes to a minimum.
