After booking, you will be asked to complete a private health and activity form. It asks only for what is relevant to your safe participation, such as medical conditions, medications, injuries, allergies, pregnancy, accessibility needs and anything that may affect breathwork, sauna or ice bath experiences.
Your answers are seen only by Tee and the facilitator or venue who needs them to keep you safe, as explained in our Privacy Policy. Some conditions may mean an activity is adjusted, or a facilitator may ask for medical advice first. Nothing you share automatically excludes you, and if you would rather talk it through privately, just email Tee.
The retreat is designed to support rest, reconnection and personal wellbeing. It is not a substitute for medical, psychological or crisis care.
-
If you cancel more than 30 days before your event or stay, day tickets are refunded in full and the 4-Day Retreat is refunded less any reasonable costs we cannot recover, capped at 30% of the price. Within 30 days of the start, we may keep a reasonable amount to cover what we have actually lost, up to the full price, and we will show you the calculation if you ask. If your place is resold, we refund the difference. You are always welcome to transfer your place to another person at no cost. If Your Velvet Passport has to cancel, you will be offered a full refund or an alternative date. The full details are in our Booking Terms, linked at the bottom of every page.
