Before booking your spot, you must apply for this training.

Your application will be reviewed within 2 weeks of completing the application form.

After your application has been accepted, to secure your spot, you can pay the full price or start with a deposit of 1000 USD.

There are three payment options:
• Credit or debit card,
• Transferring money to our Wise account,
• A traditional bank transfer.

Please note that if you choose to pay the deposit, you must pay the remaining amount within 60 days.

The final payment deadline is the 31th of August 2023.

According to our regulations, in the case of resignation, we will collect a fee in the following amount:

• The amount of the deposit (1000 USD) upon cancellation submitted 90 days or more before the event start date,
• 50% of the retreat price upon cancellation submitted between 60 and 89 days before the event start date,
• 100% (total cost of the retreat) upon cancellation submitted not later than 59 days before the event start date.




The amount will be returned the same way the payment was made.

If you have to resign, but you will indicate another person to fill in the vacated spot, this person will be able to participate without incurring any additional costs.

We don't take responsibility for the necessity to move the dates of the retreat due to the sickness of the trainers or other unexpected events that we are accountable for. If you won't be able to attend on chosen dates, then we will refund you 100% of the amount you paid.

In the unlikely events of a natural disaster, war or other unexpected events that we are not accountable for, we may not be able to refund your money. To avoid losing money, please buy personal insurance including such events.

We are not accountable for cancelling or moving the flight dates. Please buy flight insurance in order not to lose the money for your flight.
