Meals 

Vegetarian breakfasts, lunches and dinners are included in your retreat package.

Participants with food allergies will need to advise studio@prueaja.com on registration so arrangements can be made to accommodate special dietary needs. 

Transportation 

Your airport transfers to and from the sanctuary are not included in your retreat package.
I will provide ideal flight options a little closer to the date and details to coordinate a shuttle bus to transport you directly to the sanctuary from Ballina Byron Airport.

The best options is flights direct to Ballina Airport (BNK) 15 minutes to the sanctuary, alternatively Gold Coast Airport (OOL) 50 minutes to the sanctuary.

Retreat Price does NOT include:

  • Return airfares or travel.

  • Meals in transit or outside of the Retreat.

  • Health & travel insurance.

  • Extras & Excursions.

Booking and Payment
 

A $1,500 deposit is required at the time of registration to secure your place.
The balance of the payment is due 14 days on or before the retreat begins. If the balance is not received by this time, your booking may be forfeited subject to the cancellation policy outlined below.

Refund and Cancellation policy
 

It is your responsibility to read and understand the Cancellation Policy before making a reservation. Of course, no one registers with the intention of cancelling or postponing their retreat, but 
unexpected things do happen, so travel cancellation insurance is recommended once you have made your reservation.

Cancellation Policy:

We understand that plans may change, and here is our policy to address various scenarios:

  • Cancellation within 30 Days:

    • Cancellations made within 30 days of the scheduled arrival date will not be eligible for a refund.

    • If your position can be filled by another participant 30 days before the commencement of the Retreat, the Retreat fee will be refunded, less an administration fee of $300.

    • Bookings are non-transferable to another date, and this applies to unforeseen issues such as date clashes, illness, or a COVID diagnosis.

  • No-Show or Early Departure:

    • If you fail to arrive on the confirmed date or decide to leave early, your payment is non-refundable.

    • Bookings are non-transferable to another date in these cases.

  • General Cancellation:

    • Prue Aja reserves the right to cancel the Retreat before departure. If the cancellation is not due to circumstances beyond our control, you can transfer your payment to another retreat or request a refund.

    • No compensation or refund will be provided if the cancellation arises from circumstances beyond our and/or our suppliers' control (force majeure), unless recoverable sums allow it.

  • Refund Policy:

    • If a participant leaves the Retreat before completion, no refunds will be made for the unused portion.

    • There will be no refunds or credit for missed excursions, meals, yoga classes, or other activities for any reason.

Force Majeure: Prue Aja is not responsible for expenses incurred due to delays or detainments beyond the trip itinerary resulting from circumstances beyond our and/or our suppliers' control. Participants are advised to purchase their own travel cancellation insurance.

These policies ensure fairness and allow us to manage the complexities of organising a retreat.

Medical Insurance 

Each participant is responsible for checking with their current health insurance provider and 
ensuring that they have adequate medical coverage. 
Participants will be asked to provide an emergency contact name and telephone number. 

If you test positive for COVID-19 before the retreat you must notify us immediately. There will not be a refund but we will do our best to resell your ticket, and if successful you will be reimbursed the monies paid to us to date. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you have domestic travel insurance in place that covers covid-related cancellations. 

If you test positive for COVID-19 at the retreat we request that you notify us immediately, and remove yourself from the retreat and the full amount of investment for the retreat will be forfeited. 

Photographs/Videotapes
 

Prue Aja and or team will at times be photographing and/or videotaping the Retreat. 
Prue wishes to use such photographs/videos in its advertising, displays, publicity 
materials, and publications. 
Participants are deemed to have consented to Prue Aja using such images of you. 
However, if you prefer not to appear in any of the images/footage, please inform Prue prior to the commencement of the Retreat. 

Release/Responsibility

I agree that Prue Aja and her representatives, except for their gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not be held liable for any injury, damage, loss, delay or irregularity that may be occasioned for any reason to me, including, but not limited to any defect in a vehicle, the acts or default of any company or person engaged in conveying a participant, acts of God, terrorism, acts of war, or detention; delays or expenses arising from quarantine, strikes, thefts, pilferage, force majeure, civil disturbances, government restrictions or regulations, accidents by aircraft, boat, bicycle or motor vehicle, or in any restaurant or accommodation; failure of any means of transportation to arrive or depart as scheduled or changes in transit, or villa services; missed airline or other transportation connections; or for additional expenses resulting from changes in exchange rates, tariffs, or itinerary.

The participant agrees to assume any risks associated with the Retreat and agrees no liability will be attached to Prue Aja, its employees or agents. 

By accepting these terms and conditions the participant releases Prue Aja and its representatives from any such responsibility or liability. 
It is therefore suggested participants purchase their own cancellation, property damage (including luggage), and accident insurance.
