Payment and Refunds Policies

NiaSpace accepts cash, checks and the credit cards Mastercard and Visa. Debit cards backed by Mastercard and Visa are also accepted. Bank cards (ATM with PINs) are not accepted. Statements and credit card receipts indicate payments to "Life Dance Institute / NiaSpace."

There is a $15 service fee for all returned checks.

Workshop Refunds
Prepayments for workshops sponsored by NiaSpace are refundable if requested in writing more than 1 week in advance of the workshop date. (Email and fax notification is accepted.) On cancellation, $15 of the fee will be retained to cover processing costs. Refunds are not available after the workshop begins. Prepayments are fully refundable if the workshop is cancelled.

Refunds for Space Rental
Deposits are required upon contract for rental of space. Because the space is reserved exclusively for the workshop or event and we turn down all requests by others for the space at the contracted time, one half (50%) the deposit is refundable if the event is canceled and the space is released for other reservations more than 2 weeks in advance. No portion of the deposit will be refunded if canceled thereafter.

Ongoing Classes and Series
Rentals for classes and series that are on-going are paid by invoice monthly in advance. A two-week notice prior to invoicing is required to terminate these agreements.

Refunds for NiaSpace Class Cards
Payments for NiaSpace Class Cards are not refundable. Exceptions can be made for medical and other reasons specific to individual circumstances on a case-by-case basis. Contact the Owner or Director.
   Multiclass cards (punch cards) expire 12 weeks after purchase. Monthly unlimited class cards expire as appropriate to the card (1 month, 3 months, etc.) Students are strongly encouraged not to "overbuy" multiclass cards. Staff are available to help determine the appropriate card for your schedule.
   Gift Certificates and cards purchased on the NiaSpace Web sites are dated and begin the 12 week expiration on the date of the first class taken. Refunds in full of the purchase price are available to the purchaser only, if cancelled within 3 business days of the date of purchase. Unused or unclaimed cards or certificates expire 6 months from the date of purchase.

Refunds for Individual Classes
Multiclass cards are not required, and drop-ins are always welcome. Refunds or other considerations are available if the student elects to leave the class within 10 minutes of the start of the class.

Payment of Refunds
Refunds are paid in the form of the original purchase, or through other arrangements with the student, workshop participant or member. If cancelled the same day and if possible, checks will be returned uncashed and credit card transactions will be voided. Refunds are made to the original purchaser only.
