Retreat Terms & Conditions:

When booking a retreat, you will be asked to agree to these terms and conditions.

This agreement is between the guest and Riva G retreats (Yoga Riva LLC). Riva G retreats include, but are not limited to, yoga, meditation, fitness, hiking and breathwork. You must be 18 years or older to attend a Riva G retreat.

We do not accept any liability for anyone who withholds information about their physical or mental health and dietary requirements.

We reserve the right to ask a guest to leave the retreat or to stop taking part in activity if we find information submitted here to be untrue.

1. Booking

(a) Your booking is not considered definite and no contract will exist until we receive a 35% deposit from you and you agree to these terms and conditions.

(b) We do not share customer details with any 3rd parties.

2. Payment

(a) The price is the exact amount to be received by us in USD.

(b) The 35% deposit is fully non-refundable. Travel insurance is recommended. We do not give refunds in any circumstances on the non-refundable deposit.

(d) Riva G reserves the right to offer discounted rates or promotional pricing for any retreat at any time, including closer to the retreat date. Guests who have already booked are not entitled to a refund, credit or price adjustment if a retreat is subsequently offered at a reduced rate.

3. Travel

(a) Travel insurance is highly recommended. If you choose to buy insurance we require that your travel insurance covers the activity of this retreat as well as unexpected cancellation, sickness, losses and all the usual risks. You should bring the policy with you in case of an emergency.

(b) All travel arrangements are your responsibility and at your own cost. We cannot be held liable for any consequences arising from delays or cancellations made by any of the companies you may have made arrangements with, or for any irregularities in your documentation required for travel. Transfers to and from the retreat are at your own cost, unless otherwise specified.

4. Your Health

(a) It is your responsibility to let your Riva G and the retreat team know if you have any injuries and to be mindful at all times of your own body’s capability during the retreat. If you experience any injury or discomfort during any activity during the retreat, then you must desist and tell a member of staff immediately.

(b) It is also your responsibility to consult a doctor with an understanding of yoga to check that you are sufficiently fit and healthy to undertake yoga classes and other physical activities that you may choose to do whilst on the retreat. These activities include and are not limited to yoga, workouts, hiking, and swimming.

(c) Please advise us of any mental or physical health conditions before you transfer your deposit. If you have health conditions that may be affected by the activities offered on our retreats, we reserve the right to advise you to desist and in the interests of your wellbeing, or others, we may decline your stay at the retreat.

(d) While all measures are taken to ensure a high standard of health and safety, some of our retreats are situated in the countryside where the land is uneven and we shall not be responsible for any injuries caused by uneven terrain.

(e) Women who are 12 to 28 weeks pregnant should provide a letter from their health practitioner specifying that they are fit to travel and able to engage in the activities that we provide. We do not offer pre and post natal specific yoga classes, so a level of understanding of yoga and experience with it is necessary if pregnant.

(f) You may be required to answer some questions about your current and past health conditions – both mental and physical. This is so that the Riva G is aware of any issues that could arise during a retreat.

5. Dietary Allergies and Intolerances

(a) Though most of the food on Riva G retreats are accommodating of food allergy and sensitivity, there may be some retreats where we cannot guarantee cross-contamination. If you are highly allergic, please discuss this with our team before paying your deposit.

(b) All dietary allergies and intolerances should be made clear to the team upon booking. If these intolerances change between signing the waiver and the retreat happening, you are responsible for letting the team know well in advance.

(c) Any dietary allergies and intolerances that are not disclosed at the time of booking may not be able to be catered for.

6. Cancellation by the guest

(a) You may cancel your booking at any time, provided that the cancellation is made by the person submitting the booking form and is notified to us in writing/email.

(b) In all cancellation circumstances, the non-refundable deposit will be lost.

(c) If a cancellation is made within 8 weeks of the retreat starting, no refund will be possible on either the balance or the deposit.

(d) Bookings are for the stated period of the retreat. There are no refunds for an unused portion of the retreat. If the reason for cancellation is covered under the terms of your Insurance Policy, you may be able to make a claim on your insurance.

7. Amendments by Riva G

Occasionally, changes may have to be made (e.g., yoga teacher, class times or other arrangements), which we reserve the right to do at any time.

8. Cancellation by Riva G

If a cancellation is made by us, we will transfer your deposit onto another retreat of the same value or we will fully refund all payments made to us.

9. Our liability to you

(a) We accept responsibility for ensuring that the retreats are supplied as described and that the services we are contractually obliged to provide are to a reasonable standard.

(b) We do not accept any liability for cancellations, delays or changes caused by war, threat of war, terrorist actions or threats, closure of airports, civil strife, industrial action, natural disaster, international epidemic, technical problems to transport, staff cancellations, unforeseen changes in your personal circumstances or other events beyond our control.

(c) We are not liable for any injuries you may incur. All classes are undertaken at your own risk. We are not liable for any medical or psychiatric conditions, which may develop during or subsequent to the retreat. We are not liable for loss of, or damage to, your personal property.

10. Group Bookings

(a) Where a booking is made on behalf of several individuals, the booking is conditional on the person(s) paying having authorization from all the individuals named on the booking form to enter into this contract. The terms of this contract will apply to each member of the group as though they had paid for their own retreat individually and directly to us.

11. No Liability for possessions
