Students are advised they must take expert advice prior to commencing any exercise program if they are in any doubt about their ability to engage in active or passive yoga practice.

Epidemic/Pandemic Policy
From time to time infectious diseases develop into epidemics or pandemics, and create increased risks for the community. These occasions require specific policies targeted at the particular disease in question and requirements for preparedness.
Yogazeit Ltd. will as far as possible plan for and make advance preparations for the possibility that its operations will be affected by an epidemic or pandemic.
All of Yogazeit Ltd. staff, teachers and volunteers have been fully vaccinated to COVID-19 including Booster shots (where eligible) in line with Australian Government regulations. We have the Australian Government COVID-19 vaccination certificate on hand at all times.
In the event of a declared epidemic or pandemic, Yogazeit Ltd. will, as far as possible:
> Assist clients, employees, volunteers and others, as relevant, to minimise their exposure to the illness concerned.
> Encourage and/or direct those who have reason to believe that they are at risk of contracting the epidemic or pandemic to obtain a diagnosis.
> Support employees, volunteers, contractors and clients to take reasonable precautions to prevent infection or contagion.
> Institute administrative procedures to maintain services and operations throughout the period of concern.
> Instigate social distancing by moving to a live-online platform for classes, trainings, holding of meetings, events and event attendance when considered necessary.
> Communicate with employees, volunteers, clients, families, and any persons likely to be affected, that the epidemic or pandemic policy and procedures are in effect
Please note: We’re unable to offer a refund for a term, one off or regular class, should the class be cancelled due to the pandemic or government restrictions. Yogazeit offers the alternative of classes held live via Zoom Online or Microsoft Teams in order to continue service delivery with your known Yoga Educator at the confirmed time and day of your class. Yogazeit will provide safe log in details to your online class in a timely manner.
Teacher Training / Professional Learning during the pandemic:
If you have purchased tuition for a Teacher Training or Professional Learning to be held live and in person, and the training can’t go ahead due to impacts of the pandemic, a Yogazeit team member will get in touch with you to offer you the option of postponing your training to a later date (once restrictions ease and in-person trainings are once again safe and available) or move your training to a live online format. Please note that we can’t offer a refund – but we’ll do our best to accomodate your wishes to support your learning and growth as Yoga Educator.
