Assumption of Risk

Regardless of the safety precautions taken, that risk can never be fully eliminated. I understand and willingly accept that risk.

All families are required to keep a valid credit or debit card on file. Monthly tuition payment is automatic via your payment method on file. Tuition charges will be made on the 20th day of the preceding month. Tuition may also be paid in cash or check prior to the 20th of the month to avoid automatic charges to the payment method on file. We will make continued attempts to collect any declined charges past the 20th. Declined payments must be remedied by the 1st of the month to avoid losing your child's space in class. Returned checks will be charged a $25 service fee.
Payment Authorization
I authorize Hart Gymnastics Academy to initiate charges to my credit card on file for payment of membership and tuition for classes at Hart Gymnastics Academy. I understand that that this authorization is to remain in full force and effect until Hart Gymnastics Academy has received written notification from me or its termination, in such time and such manner as to afford Hart Gymnastics Academy a reasonable opportunity to act on it.

Monthly enrollment is automatic. To avoid enrollment and related charges to your account, please notify us before the 20th of the current month if you do not wish to return the following month. This notification must be received in writing, using our Drop Notice form available online.
Missed Classes
Your tuition payment holds your child's space in his/her class. As a courtesy, Hart Gymnastics Academy offers make-ups for missed classes when space is available in another class of the same skill level. Missed classes must be made up in the month that the class was missed, make up opportunities will not roll over to following months. You must register in advance for all make-ups. Open class spaces are often limited; while we make every effort to extend make up opportunities, we are unable to guarantee there will be make opportunities for missed classes.
