Terms, Conditions & Refunds

All sales are final. Some exceptions are made on a case to case basis, and depending on the type of service or good provided.

Single Yoga Classes:

Most single yoga classes can be canceled/rescheduled within 2 hours of the class start time. If you are more than 5 minutes late to the start of class without letting Sonia know by email (sonia@soniakaras.com) you will not be able to enter class, and will not be refunded.

Private Yoga Sessions are non-refundable. You will be allowed to reschedule your session within 24 hours of the start time. You will be allowed 2 reschedules per session. A third reschedule will require a new payment.

If you need to cancel/reschedule less than 24 hours before class, Sonia will do what she can to accommodate this request. I understand that life happens, and I do my best to be generous. Please reach out by email (sonia@soniakaras.com).

Hidden Yoga Online

I understand that yoga includes physical movements as well as an opportunity for relaxation, stress re-education and relief of muscular tension. As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I will listen to my body, discontinue the activity, and ask for support from the instructor. I assume full responsibility for any and all damages, which may incur through participation. 

Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis or treatment. Yoga is not recommended and is not safe under certain medical conditions. By agreeing to these terms & conditions, I affirm that a licensed physician has verified my good health and physical condition to participate in such a fitness program, or I have chosen to begin on my own and acknowledge all risk. In addition, I will make the instructor aware of any medical conditions or physical limitations before class. If I am pregnant, become pregnant or I am post-natal or post-surgical, my signature verifies that I have my physician's approval to participate. I also affirm that I alone am responsible to decide whether to practice yoga and participation is at my own risk. I hereby agree to irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter against Hidden Yoga LLC/Sonia Karas, its owners, officers, employees, and instructors. 

I have read and fully understand and agree to the above terms of this Agreement and Release of Waiver of Liability. I am signing this agreement voluntarily and recognize that my signature serves as complete and unconditional release of all liability to the greatest extent allowed by law in the State of Pennsylvania. 

Online Programs

All online programs and class series are final sale. If you are on a payment plan, you agree to pay all installations in full. If you do not like a program, or have a specific issue, please reach out to Sonia by email (sonia@soniakaras.com. Sonia will make decisions about refunds on a case to case basis. She may offer the option to transfer the payment credit towards another program in lieu of a full refund.

Some online programs will explicitly state the length of time you have access to them. As a general policy, you are guaranteed access for the duration of the program (ie 4 weeks for a 4 week program). In most cases you will have extended access to the program through the online portal, but this is not guaranteed.

The Hidden Yoga Online studio is a subscription based platform, and you can choose to enroll as a monthly or yearly member. Memberships can be canceled at any time. If you have any trouble cancelling your membership, please reach out directly at sonia@soniakaras.com and I will help you.

Kirtan & Special Events

Many kirtan gatherings are offered at a sliding scale or by donation. Any payments made are non-refundable. If you are participating in a special event with Sonia hosted by another party (ex. yoga studio, separate business) then payments will be under that entity’s terms and conditions. Sonia will not handle refunds or payment issues when she is offering a class, workshop, or program through another party.

By making a purchase through this website, I acknowledge that I have read the above mentioned policies and agree to them.
