Health & Medical Disclaimer

Hot yoga is practiced in a heated environment and is physically demanding. You participate at your own risk. Breathe Hot Yoga is not responsible for any injury, illness, or adverse reaction that occurs during or as a result of participating in our classes. Please inform your instructor of any injuries or medical conditions before class.

Booking Policy

How to Book

Classes can be booked online through our schedule page. Members with credits can book directly from their account. Guests can book as drop-ins using PayFast or with an active Explorer Pack.

Class Credits

Each class booking deducts one credit from your account. Credits are non-transferable between accounts. Credits do not expire.

Drop-In Classes

Drop-in classes can be paid for directly at the time of booking via PayFast. If you've purchased a drop-in without an account, please WhatsApp or email us at least 12 hours before your class to reschedule or request a refund.

Explorer Pack

The Explorer Pack grants 7 days of unlimited class access from the time of purchase. It is available to first-time participants only and can only be purchased once per email address. Classes must be booked during the active 7-day window.

Booking Confirmation

Your booking is confirmed once you receive a confirmation email. Please check your spam folder if you do not receive one. Your spot is only guaranteed upon confirmed booking.

Late Arrivals

Please arrive 10–15 minutes before class. Late arrivals may not be permitted to join class out of respect for other students and the instructor. Credits will not be refunded for late arrivals who are denied entry.

Cancellation Policy

Member Cancellations

Members can cancel bookings through their account page. Cancellations made more than 12 hours before class will receive a full credit refund. Cancellations made within 12 hours of class start time will forfeit the credit.

12-Hour Rule: Cancel more than 12 hours before class = credit returned. Cancel within 12 hours = credit forfeited.

Guest & Drop-In Cancellations

If you've booked a drop-in class without creating an account, please WhatsApp or email us at least 12 hours before your class to reschedule or request a refund.

Studio Cancellations

In the rare event that Breathe Hot Yoga must cancel a class, all affected members will be notified by email and credits will be fully refunded. Drop-in payments for studio-cancelled classes will be refunded.

No-Shows

Failure to attend a booked class without cancellation will result in forfeiture of the credit or drop-in payment.

Refund Policy

Class Credits & Packages

All class credit and package purchases (1 Credit Drop-In, 5 Class Pack, 10 Class Pack) are strictly non-refundable. Once purchased, credits do not expire and remain valid on your account for future use. No refunds will be issued under any circumstances for purchased packages.

No Refunds on Packages: By completing a package purchase, you acknowledge and agree that the payment is final and non-refundable. This applies to all credit packages regardless of whether credits have been used.

Drop-In Classes

Drop-in class payments are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend, please WhatsApp or email us at least 12 hours before the class to reschedule to another available class, subject to availability.
