3. Will have already notified the teacher via telephone or mobile or in person and have made a mutual agreement of at least 8 hours or more prior to the appointed lesson time whether to fulfil or postpone the appointment to another lesson within the week or following week. Both teacher and pupil - once aware of given reasons for uncertainties as to the attendance and completion of the lesson – will reach a mutual agreement and reappoint another suitable date and time.
4. Student Lateness!!! The Belly Dance AML Golden Sands Studios also announces to students that when a student arrives late at the agreed appointed time of a belly dance lesson the belly dance teacher is not obliged to recuperate time for the student’s lateness.

Each student is thereafter required to attend the remainder of lessons stipulated in the Group Lesson plan agreement ( ie. minimum 1 lesson or more attendances per week ) Failure to attend the minimum of 1 class per week without prior notification of at least 8 hours or more signifies the loss of that 1 lesson for that week !!!
NOTE: A student is only REFUNDED their money (on request) if it was payed in advance and the cancellation of their 6 lesson package occurs prior to the established date of the first lesson commencement. It is every student’s responsibility to ensure their presence at each exact given lesson date and time. Any lateness on the part of the student will entail NO EXTRA time to the group lesson duration. Lateness on the part of the Teacher/Organiser will not be examined or questioned. NOTE: The teacher’s lateness will neither influence nor detract from the students’ belly dance lesson time duration as the full hour will still be implemented and carried out.

CANCELLATION!!! of a Private Belly Dance Lesson appointment without prior notice of at least 8 hours or more of the lesson time will require the payment of AU$30.00 whether completed or not completed. Refusal to pay on the part of the student owing will warrant Belly Dance AML Golden Sands Studios the right and authority to cease tuition services with the student individual.

However this does not apply for Note: normal cold or flu virus sufferers or allergic sufferers. There will be no refund for missed or uncompleted lessons in these or similar cases or circumstances.
