Effective Date: [October 2024]

Last Updated: [September 2024]

Payments & Enrollment

1.1. Membership:

When you enrol in Academy Of Movement (AOM) classes, you become a member of AOM and are considered an ongoing participant unless otherwise specified by AOM or by giving one month's notice in writing to AOM.

1.2. Payment Method:

Payment for classes is facilitated through a subscription model, where monthly payments are automatically deducted from your registered credit or debit card upon enrollment. This monthly payment structure is designed to offer convenience and affordability by spreading term fees into smaller, manageable monthly instalments.

1.3. Billing Date:

All subscription payments are charged on the 1st of each month. In the event of a failed payment on the 1st, two additional attempts will be made on the 4th and the 9th of the month. You will receive email notifications for each unsuccessful payment. If payment hasn't been made via the link provided within 48 hours of this email, your subscription will be cancelled, and students cannot participate in classes until this has been reset.

1.4. Payment Card:

Subscriptions are not processed as direct debits but are linked to your card. It is your responsibility to keep your card details up-to-date within your ClassForKids account. To cancel your subscription, please contact us. This procedure ensures compliance with the terms and conditions outlined herein.

1.5. Late Payment Charge:

Subscriptions that fail after three consecutive attempts will incur a £5 late payment charge, which will be added to your next subscription as a covering payment.

1.6. Refunds:

All class bookings are non-refundable, regardless of whether classes are missed due to illness, holidays, or other circumstances.

Class Trials & Waiting List

2.1. Trial Classes:

Following your first trial class, you will receive an email containing detailed information in our class handbook. After completing your second trial class, if you choose to continue, you will receive an invitation to set up monthly subscription payments.

2.2. Waiting List:

Students on the waiting list will be contacted in the order of their placement. If we receive no response within 48 hours, a phone call will be made, allowing an additional 24-hour window to respond before the place is offered to the next student on the waiting list.

Workshop and Camp Terms

3.1. Payments:

Workshop and camp payments are taken at the time of booking to secure your space.

3.2. Refunds:

Payment for workshops and camps bookings is non-refundable, regardless of whether camps are missed due to illness, holidays, or other circumstances. Note that payment terms may vary when early bird discounts are applicable.
