  • Scheduling for private lessons is flexible and subject to the instructor's availability.
  • If the instructor is unavailable during the date or time originally booked, CourseHorse and the class provider will help arrange for a reschedule that works for both parties.
  • Once a date and time is decided on, the class provider's standard cancellation policy applies.
  • In the event that schedules don't match up and a date and time cannot be scheduled, students are entitled to a refund.
  • Price is for one person for a two-hour class.
  • Once you have signed up for your preferable day, the instructor will email you and let you know what hours are available.

Refund Policy

  • You must give at least 4 business days notice to cancel your enrollment in the class, for a refund less a 5% cancellation fee.
  • Once the class has started, we can no longer offer refunds.
  • In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.
