Becoming Retreats – Terms & Conditions
These Terms and Conditions (“Agreement”) apply to all retreats, workshops, events, and related services organised by Becoming Retreats Ltd (“Becoming Retreats”, “we”, “our”, “us”).
By booking and/or attending a retreat, class, workshop, private session, or event (“Retreat”), you (“Participant”, “you”, “your”) agree to the following terms.
1. Booking and Eligibility
By signing up to a Becoming Retreats event, you confirm that you are 16 years of age or older, in good physical and mental health, and have consulted a qualified medical professional if you have any pre-existing medical conditions, injuries, or concerns. You acknowledge that certain levels of strength, fitness, and flexibility are required for participation. By booking and attending a retreat, class, or event, you agree to the terms of the Becoming Retreats Health and Safety Liability Waiver, which forms part of this agreement and applies automatically upon registration.
2. Services Provided
Becoming Retreats shall provide the Participant with accommodation, daily yoga sessions, breathwork, meals (where included), and other scheduled activities as listed within each retreat’s published itinerary.
Activities may include, but are not limited to, yoga, breathwork, cold water immersion, swimming (pool, sea, or open water), hiking, excursions, meditation, workshops, surfing, and/or boat trips.
Becoming Retreats reserves the right to make reasonable changes to the schedule or content of a retreat at any time.
3. Payment
3.1 Total Cost
The total cost of the Retreat must be paid in full prior to the Retreat, as set forth below. Failure to make payments as required will constitute an automatic breach of this Agreement by the Participant, and all payments made shall be forfeited.
3.2 Non-Refundable Deposit
A non-refundable deposit of £250 is due at the time of booking. This deposit secures your space and becomes non-refundable immediately upon payment.
If your initial payment at checkout is less than £250, the remaining balance of the full deposit will still be due.
3.3 Balance Payment
The remaining balance must be paid no later than 60 days prior to the Retreat start date. Failure to make full payment by this date will result in automatic forfeiture of your booking and the loss of all payments made.
3.4 Discount Codes
The £250 non-refundable deposit applies in all circumstances, regardless of any discount code or promotional offer used. Discounts are applied to the total retreat price, not to the deposit amount. In the event of cancellation, the full £250 deposit remains payable even if your initial payment at checkout was less than this amount.
3.5 Payment Plans
If you choose to pay via a payment plan, you agree to complete all scheduled payments in full, even if the final instalment is due after the retreat start date.
By entering a payment plan, you acknowledge that this constitutes a binding financial commitment to pay the entire retreat cost, regardless of attendance or cancellation. Failure to complete payments as agreed will be treated as a breach of contract, and the outstanding balance will remain legally due and payable to Becoming Retreats.
4. Cancellations
4.1 General Policy
Becoming Retreats reserves the right to make any changes deemed necessary, including retreat cancellation, as per these Terms and Conditions. All cancellation requests by the Participant must be submitted in writing via email to booking@becomingretreats.com.
4.2 Participant Cancellations

This includes, but is not limited to: travel restrictions, quarantines, medical emergencies, lockdowns, illness, Covid-19, future pandemics or public health events, travel changes, border closures, or natural disasters.

Cancellations received less than 60 days prior to the start of the Retreat: no refunds will be issued under any circumstances. The full amount paid (or owed under a payment plan) will be retained.
4.3 Non-Attendance and Early Departure
If the Participant fails to attend, arrives late, or leaves the Retreat early for any reason, no refund or credit will be issued.
4.4 Organiser Cancellations
If Becoming Retreats must cancel a retreat due to unforeseen circumstances, you will be offered the choice to transfer to another retreat or receive a credit for a future event. Cash refunds may be offered at the organiser’s discretion. Becoming Retreats is not liable for additional costs incurred (such as flights, transfers, or other expenses).
5. Public Health and Pandemic Clause
Becoming Retreats operates in accordance with public health guidance and government regulations.
In the event of COVID-19 or any future pandemic, epidemic, or similar public health event, you acknowledge and agree that:
