IMPORTANT: I understand that the $50 dollar enrollment fee is non-refundable. I will be charged if I cancel late or don’t show up to class. A late cancel is any cancellation within 48 hours of the class day, thus we must receive notification to cancel or rollover by 5pm Wednesday for a Saturday class. Rollover: If you must cancel, your enrollment fee can be rolled over to another workshop within the next 90 day following the date of the original class which you enrolled in. You must, however, provide us with a minimum of 2 business days notice prior to the day of the class if you want to roll over your registration to another class or cancel altogether.
