refund and withdrawal policy |
Refund/Withdrawal Policy |
We have been training teachers since 1995, and many
of our teachers are successfully pursuing
a career teaching yoga. Our experience has
shown that applicants who studied yoga in Yoga East classes for at
least two years before entering teacher training are most
likely to successfully complete the
course. If you have not had two years of
Yoga East class experience we urge you to consider postponing your
training until you have more experience.
You should also postpone the training if you are pregnant or plan to
become pregnant, if you are starting a new business, or if
you are enrolled in college or graduate school,
as all of these circumstances in the past have caused
students to have to withdraw from the training. |
Refunds:
Before the Course begins: full refund.
$100 administrative fee will be charged for deposit refunds.
After the Course begins: $250 administrative fee will be
charged for refunds.
No refund will be given
after two months from the start of the course (60 days).
No refunds will be given for parts of the course you
have attended or commenced. No refunds will be
given for book or materials purchased from Yoga East.
Pro-rata refunds are allowed in the event of withdrawal for
extraordinary reasons such as a medical or
family emergency or job transfer out-of-state. |

scholarships, financial aid
and work-study |
programs available |
Rhonda Lawson Memorial
Scholarship
awarded to a Yoga East student who has regularly attended classes
with us
for more than one year and shown steadfast commitment to
Yoga East
and our non-profit mission by volunteering at the studio. |
Financial aid is based on financial need
and takes the form of work-study opportunities.
These opportunities include teaching yoga in supervised
settings,
assisting an experienced teacher,
teaching yoga to seniors, cancer survivors, at-risk children and
teens, shelter residents and other classes for individuals who may
not normally have access to yoga classes. |
Financial aid is only available to students with demonstrated
financial need,
who have maintained a regular practice in
classes at Yoga East
for a minimum of one year prior to
taking teacher training-level classes. |
Rhonda
Lawson Memorial Scholarship Fund |
Named in
honor of our teacher training student Rhonda Lawson.
The day before she was to have begun our teacher training
program in 2004, Rhonda was seriously injured in an
automobile accident and passed away a few days later.
This scholarship honors the memory of Rhonda, a dedicated
student who wanted to bring the benefits of yoga to as many
people as possible. The scholarship pays the total tuition for a student to complete our 200 Hour Foundation Yoga Teacher
Training. Please note that there are prerequisites, the most important of which is that you have
maintained regular class attendance for a significant period
of time, a minimum of one year. If you do not currently attend classes at Yoga East, you
need to establish a record of regular attendance before we
will consider your application.
The scholarship
is
awarded each year to the most deserving student with
financial need. |
