Terms & Conditions

1. Eligibility (18+ only).
Our classes, privates, and events are for adults 18 years and older. We may request a valid government ID at check-in. We do not knowingly serve minors.

2. Booking & tickets.
When you purchase a class, private, or event ticket, you agree to the listing’s details (date/time, location, capacity, inclusions). Your confirmation email/text is your proof of purchase; please review it carefully. We may verify identity and payment method to prevent fraud.

3. Pricing, taxes, and fees.
Prices are listed in USD and may change at any time before purchase. Applicable taxes, service fees, and payment-processor fees may apply. You authorize us (and our providers) to charge your selected method for the full amount.

4. Payment processing.
Payments are processed by third-party providers (e.g., Stripe). We do not store full card numbers. If a payment is declined, your booking is not confirmed.

5. Communications.
By booking or joining our list, you consent to receive transactional emails/SMS (confirmations, reminders, updates). Marketing messages require your opt-in; you can unsubscribe via email or reply STOP to SMS at any time. Standard carrier rates apply.

6. Third-party platforms.
Our website, checkout, ticketing, video hosting, and analytics may run on third-party services. Their terms may also apply.

7. Changes & availability.
We may modify schedules, instructors, venues, or capacity for operational or safety reasons. If we make a material change or cancel, you’ll be offered a refund or credit (see Refund Policy).

1. Adult training environment.
This is a professional, women-only (18+) training space. Respectful conduct is required—no harassment, recording others without consent, or unsafe behavior. We may remove anyone who violates policies without refund.

2. Health & assumption of risk.
Dance, floorwork, and related movement carry inherent risks. By participating, you confirm you are healthy enough to take part and you assume all risks associated with training. Our coaching is educational and not medical advice. If you have concerns, consult a clinician first.

3. Attire & gear.
Wear attire suitable for movement. Heels are optional; protective gear (e.g., knee pads, grip) is recommended for certain drills. Follow coach guidance and venue rules.

4. Filming & take-home clips.
Many sessions include a personal reference recording of your own run. Do not film other attendees without their consent. We may restrict filming where appropriate.

5. Promotions & giveaways.
From time to time we run promotions (e.g., sweepstakes). Official Rules govern each promotion. If you purchase first and are later selected as a winner, we will credit your purchase consistent with the promotion’s rules.

6. Cancellations, transfers, refunds.
Our refund/credit approach is case-by-case to balance fairness and limited capacity. See our Refund Policy for details and how to request accommodations. No-shows are typically non-refundable.

1. Intellectual Property (IP).
All site content, curricula, class materials, and branding are owned by The Shy Cat Dance Studio or our licensors. Your purchase grants you a personal, non-transferable license to use materials for your own training. No redistribution, resale, public posting, or commercial use without written permission.

2. Media releases.
If you sign a media release, you grant us permission to use your approved photos/video for marketing and educational purposes. Media consent is optional and can be limited or withdrawn for future use by emailing us; previously published materials may not always be retractable.

3. Privacy.
We collect only what we need to operate adult training and events. See our Privacy Policy for what we collect, how we use it, and your choices (access, correction, deletion, opt-out).

4. Disclaimers.
Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee specific performance, bookings, or earnings outcomes.

5. Limitation of liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Shy Cat Dance Studio (and its owners, instructors, and partners) are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages. Our total liability for any claim related to your purchase or participation is limited to the amount you paid for the affected service.

6. Indemnity.
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your breach of these terms, your conduct at an event, or your misuse of our materials.

7. Governing law & disputes.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflicts rules. Venue for disputes is in Harris County, Texas. Before filing, please contact us so we can try to resolve issues informally.

8. Changes to these Terms.
We may update these Terms to reflect changes to our services or the law. Updates take effect upon posting with a new effective date. Material changes will be highlighted for a reasonable period.
