Refund Policy for The Shala Yoga & Mindfulness


At The Shala Yoga & Mindfulness, we are committed to making our offerings accessible and supportive for all individuals on their yoga and mindfulness journeys. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to experience personal transformation and community connection through our courses, retreats, and workshops.


General Principles

The following terms outline our refund policy:

  • All refund requests must be submitted in writing via email to support@theshalayoga.com
  • The date of your written request will determine the applicable refund amount based on the timelines outlined below.
  • Please note that a handling fee may apply based on the circumstances of your refund request.


Refund Timeline (Physical Events)

  • More than 30 days before the start date of the course/retreat: You are eligible for a full refund minus a 10% processing fee.
  • Between 15-30 days before the start date of the course/retreat: You are eligible for a 50% refund.
  • Less than 15 days before the start date: Unfortunately, we cannot offer any refunds after this period.
