Leave with dignity
If you want to leave Newcastle Tai Chi, just send a polite e-mail
letting us know. Accept that it is time to move on. There's
nothing wrong with this. People change. You change.
Just leave politely,
sensibly and without making a fuss.
The beginner’s enthusiasm is such that he cannot imagine what blocks
could lie ahead to halt his progress. If some decisive challenge to his
continuing on does occur at this early stage, he will likely abandon his
practice altogether.
(Dave Lowry)
Think ahead...
If you are thinking about leaving, then take a moment to plan it
out:
Cancel your standing order
Give Rachel 7 days notice by e-mail
Cancel your standing order
We request 7 days notice if you are planning to leave. That way
the student has the time to cancel their standing order in advance.
Refund of standing order
Should the standing order be sent after notice has been given, we
will immediately refund the amount.
No refund
If you fail to give notice, don't attend classes or decide to cancel after
the first of the month we will not refund the monthly fee.
Similarly, if you attend classes and cancel halfway through the month, we
will not refund the remainder of the standing order value.
Please look at our Refunds page for further information.
What you signed
New students sign a 'Registration Form' and
school members sign a 'Membership Agreement'.
The registration form states: "I have read and
understand the code of conduct. I am prepared to adhere to the class rules."
This is signed after reading the
Code of Conduct and Etiquette notices.
The Etiquette notice says: "If
the class is not to your liking or you fail to turn up for lessons, please
note that we do not give refunds."
The Terms of Membership
and Code of Conduct page states: "Students pay fees regardless of attendance (like a gym membership)"
Not paying
standing order
If you don't pay your standing order,
we'll chase you up. Once. If no payment is forthcoming or you start talking
about pay-as-you-go, we'll treat you as having left
Newcastle Tai Chi.
