Cancellation policy:
I have a 24 hour cancellation policy. Please provide 24 hour notice when needing to reschedule or cancel a lesson otherwise you will forfeit the lesson. This helps me protect my business and hold you accountable to showing up.
There are 2 circumstances in which this policy does not apply: emergencies and inclement weather. Please communicate with me if there is an emergency (sudden medical illness, car accident, etc). On days where there are possible thunderstorms, I will communicate with you throughout the day as your lesson time approaches. We will reschedule with no penalty when weather is bad.
Please provide at least 2 weeks notice when ending or modifying lessons. This helps me to plan my business and accommodate the next swimmer on my waitlist.
