Buyer beware. Signed up for $250 class -- six sessions - on reactive behavior. Travel and illness resulted in my being able to attend one class. I wrote two cordial requests to Sara asking for a partial refund. It took a while, but I have received a response from Sara and the trainer, Lindsay, offering credit toward another class or training session. I feel this is fair and will follow up with both. I have modified my initial review to reflect their responsiveness.

Was referred to them but not much response from them. Left email and message. They called once and I was not home. I called back and no response. Guess I will look at other options.

Pre-paid for some private sessions and with covid not going to use them. They are not responding back to me about a refund. Even if I pre-pay for a service and am unable to use them especially due to a pandemic I would hope the business would give me a refund for the services I did not receive
Pretty disappointed that I haven’t heard back and they have yet to send me my money of unused services
You just should not do business that way
Very disappointing
