Rise Wellness Academy is an independent training provider based in Macclesfield, Cheshire, offering accredited courses in yoga teacher training, holistic therapy and professional development. By enrolling on a course, booking a workshop, or purchasing any product or service through this website, you agree to the following terms.

Rise Wellness Academy is a separate legal entity to FOLD Yoga Studio.

Rise Wellness Academy offers the following:

• Yoga teacher training (200hr Foundation, 20hr/50hr CPD, 300hr Advanced) — Yoga Alliance accredited

• Holistic therapy training including massage, reflexology and complementary therapies — IGCT accredited

• Coaching and mentoring — ACCPH accredited

• Classes, workshops and CPD sessions

• Community events including monthly movement and co-working sessions

Full details of current courses, dates and availability are listed on the relevant course pages of this website.

Places on teacher training programmes and holistic therapy courses are secured by payment of a non-refundable deposit at the time of booking. Enrolment is not confirmed until a deposit has been received and acknowledged by Rise Wellness Academy.

For workshops, CPD sessions and community events, full payment is required at the time of booking unless otherwise stated.

All bookings are personal to the individual and are non-transferable to another person without prior written agreement from Rise Wellness Academy.

Payment plans are available for teacher training and holistic therapy courses. Where a payment plan has been agreed, all scheduled payments must be made on time. Rise Wellness Academy reserves the right to suspend access to course materials or training days where payments fall into arrears, and to pursue outstanding balances through appropriate means.

Payment plan terms will be confirmed in writing at the time of enrolment.

Deposits paid to secure a place on a teacher training or holistic therapy course are non-refundable in all circumstances.

Course fees paid beyond the deposit may be refunded on a pro-rata basis depending on how much of the course has been completed at the time of cancellation. Requests for refunds must be made in writing. Each case will be considered individually and any refund issued is at the discretion of Rise Wellness Academy.

Workshops, CPD and community events: Cancellations made with more than 48 hours notice will be refunded in full. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours notice will not be refunded unless the place can be filled by another student.

In the event that Rise Wellness Academy needs to cancel or reschedule a training course or session, all affected students will be notified as soon as possible. Where a course is rescheduled, your place will be transferred to the new dates at no additional cost. If you are unable to attend the rescheduled dates, a full refund of all fees paid (including the deposit) will be offered.

Rise Wellness Academy accepts no liability for additional costs incurred as a result of a cancellation or rescheduled course, including travel or accommodation costs.ption

It is your responsibility to ensure you are in suitable physical and mental health to participate in training programmes and sessions offered by Rise Wellness Academy. If you have any injuries, medical conditions, or any other circumstances that may affect your participation, please inform us before your course begins.

Rise Wellness Academy accepts no liability for injury, loss or damage arising from participation in its courses or sessions, except where such liability cannot be excluded by law.

Certificates and qualifications are issued upon successful completion of the relevant course requirements, as set out in your course materials. Rise Wellness Academy reserves the right to withhold certification where course requirements have not been met, including attendance requirements, assessments and outstanding payments.
