By accessing this website, registering for classes, purchasing tickets, or participating in any activities offered by Beats & Bells, you agree to comply with and be bound by the terms described below.
If you do not agree with these Terms & Conditions, you should not use this website or participate in Beats & Bells programs.
1. Eligibility and Parental Consent
Beats & Bells provides programs for both adults and minors.
Participants under the age of 18 must be registered by a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to these Terms & Conditions on behalf of the minor participant.
The parent or guardian assumes full responsibility for the minor's participation in all classes, workshops, rehearsals, and events.
2. Registration and Enrollment
Enrollment in classes, workshops, camps, or events requires registration through the designated enrollment system or website.
Beats & Bells reserves the right to:

Participation is permitted only for individuals who have completed the registration and payment process.
3. Payment Terms
Tuition fees, workshop fees, event registrations, and other program charges must be paid at the time of enrollment unless otherwise specified.
Payments are processed through secure third-party payment systems.
Failure to complete payment may result in:
- suspension of enrollment
- cancellation of class participation
Any returned payments, failed transactions, or payment disputes may incur additional administrative fees.
4. Refund Policy
All tuition and program fees are non-refundable once a session begins.
Missed classes, scheduling conflicts, or personal circumstances do not qualify for refunds.
If a participant withdraws after enrollment but before the program begins, any refund or credit will be determined at the sole discretion of Beats & Bells.
If Beats & Bells cancels a program due to operational reasons, low enrollment, or unforeseen circumstances, participants may receive either:
- a refund, or
- a credit toward a future program.
5. Attendance and Missed Classes
Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes during the session.

Missed classes cannot be rescheduled, credited, or refunded for any reason, including:
- illness
- travel or vacation
- school activities
- scheduling conflicts
- weather affecting individual participants

Tuition reserves the student's place in the class session, not attendance at individual classes.
If a class is cancelled by Beats & Bells, the studio may schedule a replacement class at its discretion.
