Terms & Conditions
We’re so glad you’re here.
At SteadyMind Institute, we’re committed to creating a supportive, thoughtful experience for every participant. The following policies are in place to ensure clarity, fairness, and a smooth experience for everyone involved.
By registering for a SteadyMind program, you agree to the terms outlined below.
1. Program Registration & Payment
Registration is confirmed upon receipt of payment.
Payment may be made in full at the time of registration or through an approved payment option, if offered. All prices are listed in U.S. dollars.
2. Cancellation & Refund Policy
We understand that life happens and plans can change. At the same time, because of the small-group, immersive nature of this program, we’re not always able to fill spots on short notice.
Cancellations made 30 days or more prior to the program start date are eligible for a full refund, minus any payment processing fees.
Once the program has begun, refunds are no longer available.
If you’re unable to attend, your registration may be transferred to another participant with advance written notice prior to the program start date.
If program materials (such as a printed manual) have been provided, they must be returned in unused condition in order to process any eligible refund.
3. Program Changes or Cancellation by SteadyMind
SteadyMind Institute reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, or modify a program due to low enrollment, instructor availability, or unforeseen circumstances.
If a program is canceled by SteadyMind, participants will receive a full refund.
4. Participation & Personal Responsibility
We invite you to listen to your body and engage in a way that feels supportive and sustainable.
By participating, you acknowledge that you are responsible for your own physical and mental well-being during all sessions. You agree to practice within your own limits and to modify as needed.
5. Health & Medical Disclaimer
SteadyMind programs are intended for educational and wellness purposes only and are not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
If you have any medical concerns or pre-existing conditions, we encourage you to consult with a qualified healthcare provider before participating.
6. Assumption of Risk & Liability Waiver
Participation in yoga, movement, and mindfulness practices involves inherent risks.
By registering, you acknowledge these risks and agree to participate voluntarily. You release SteadyMind Institute and its instructors from liability for injuries, damages, or losses that may arise from participation.
7. Professional Development Credit (CPDUs)
SteadyMind Institute is an approved provider of Continuing Professional Development Units (CPDUs) in the state of Illinois.
Participants are responsible for attending required sessions and completing any necessary documentation in order to receive credit.
