For In-Person Lessons:
48 Hours Notice - Artists must give 48 hours' notice to be offered an in-person makeup lesson for any missed session.

24 Hours Notice - If 24 hours' notice is given, artists are eligible for a virtual makeup session.

Less Than 24 Hours Notice - The session is not eligible for a makeup and is considered forfeit.

Refund Policy: To ensure each client is the right fit for the program, has all their questions answered, and gains a clear understanding of what Whole Person Vocal Coaching entails, we offer a free discovery session to each potential client.
