YogaVibes offers membership subscription-based access to its classes (“Classes”), as well as one-time purchases of on demand contend (“a la carte”). YogaVibes reserves the right to cancel, interrupt, or reschedule any YogaVibes Content, Class, or Experience. Subject to your payment of any applicable fees (including applicable taxes) and your compliance with all of the other terms YogaVibes specifies for the Service, YogaVibes grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited right and license, so long as the classes are available on the Service, to access, view, use, and display Classes and/or Online Courses for non-commercial, private use.

Billing for Membership to Classes. Memberships, which provide you with access to Classes, are billed on a periodic basis as specified at the time of purchase (e.g., monthly or yearly). Your subscription will continue in effect on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription unless and until you cancel your subscription or the account or the Service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to this Agreement. If membership is cancelled or terminated before the end of the applicable billing cycle, YogaVibes will not reimburse the Member for the remainder of that paid month. Members may cancel their subscription at any time. Membership subscriptions renew automatically. Membership subscriptions must be canceled prior to the renewal date in order to avoid additional membership charges. Refunds for previous charges will not be issued. 

Pricing for Membership Subscriptions. When you purchase a membership subscription, you will initially be charged at the rate applicable at the time of your agreement to subscribe. If YogaVibes later increases the price of the subscription, YogaVibes will notify you. The increase will apply to the next payment due from you after the notice, provided that you have been given at least 10 days’ prior notice before the charge is made. If you are given less than 10 days’ prior notice, the price increase will not apply until the payment after the next payment due.

Free Trial for Membership to Classes. We require that you provide a valid credit or debit card (“Payment Source”) at the time you register for a free trial to ensure that you have continued access to your membership after the expiration of the free trial period (“Free Trial”). YogaVibes will not bill your account until the Free Trial has expired and provided that you have not cancelled your account during the Free Trial period. You may only use a Free Trial once. YogaVibes reserves the right to terminate any account that is using or trying to use more than one Free Trial. If you wish to avoid charges to your payment method, you must cancel your subscription prior to midnight Pacific Time on the last day of your Free Trial period.

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for so long as it is posted on any part of our Web site.
