Terms and Conditions

Last updated: October 2026

1. Welcome

Welcome to The Space to Breathe Collective.

We're a not-for-profit, community-led yoga cooperative based in Leicester. We believe yoga should be affordable, accessible and welcoming to everybody.

These terms explain how our memberships, bookings and classes work and help us look after each other and the space we share.

By booking or attending our classes, workshops or events, you agree to these terms.

2. Memberships and Pricing

We offer three unlimited monthly membership options, based on the principles of mutuality, fairness and solidarity.

- Community Membership – £30 per month: Our standard membership, keeping yoga affordable and accessible.

- Supporter Membership – £40 per month: For those who can contribute a little more towards supporting our teachers and collective.

- Solidarity Membership – £50 per month: For those who would like to contribute further towards the future of our collective and community space.

All three memberships offer exactly the same benefits:

- Unlimited access to our regular timetabled yoga classes, subject to availability.

- 20% discount on eligible workshops and events.

- Access to our community membership benefits and partner discounts.

The only difference is how much you choose to contribute.

We recognise that everyone's financial circumstances are different. There is no expectation to choose a higher membership level, and every contribution is equally valued.

Managing your membership

- Memberships operate on a rolling monthly basis.

- Payments are collected automatically each month on your renewal date.

- There is no minimum contract or cancellation notice period.

- You can cancel your membership at any time before your next payment is due.

- You can upgrade or downgrade your membership by contacting us or through TeamUp where available.

- Memberships are personal and cannot be transferred to another person.

Membership payments already processed are non-refundable, except where required by law.

3. Drop-In Classes

If you'd rather attend occasionally, our regular yoga classes are available at £10 per class.

All classes must be booked and paid for online in advance through our booking system.

We don't accept payments at the studio.

All drop-in bookings are non-refundable, subject to your statutory rights.

If you're unable to attend, please cancel your booking through TeamUp so that someone else has the opportunity to book your place.

We understand that plans sometimes change, but as a small not-for-profit collective, we rely on class bookings to support our teachers and keep yoga affordable for everyone.

4. Cancellations and Refunds

Drop-in classes

All drop-in class bookings are non-refundable, including if you are unable to attend or cancel your place before the class.

We do not offer refunds or credits for missed classes or cancellations made by participants, except where required by law.

Monthly memberships

You can cancel your membership at any time through your TeamUp account.

To cancel:

1. Log in to your TeamUp account using a web browser.

2. Select My Account.

3. Go to Memberships.

4. Click Details on your active membership.

5. Select Cancel Membership and follow the instructions.

Please cancel before your next renewal date to avoid another payment.

As a small not-for-profit collective, we keep membership prices as affordable as possible and rely on volunteers to help with administration. For this reason, we cannot usually refund membership payments that have already been collected.

This does not affect your statutory rights.

Workshops and events

Workshop and event bookings are non-refundable, except where required by law.

If you're unable to attend, you may transfer your place to someone else with at least 24 hours' notice. Please contact us to arrange this. Any applicable administration fee will be explained before the transfer.

Classes cancelled by us

If we need to cancel a class you've paid for as a drop-in booking, we will arrange a full refund or offer an alternative booking.

If a workshop or event is cancelled by us, you will be offered a refund or an alternative arrangement.

5. Attending Classes

We welcome people of different ages, backgrounds and abilities.

Participants must normally be aged 16 or over to attend our public classes, workshops and programmes.

Children under 16 may attend our Sunday 9am Beginners Yoga class when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

Please book your place before attending, arrive in good time and let your teacher know if you are new to yoga or have any concerns about participating.

For everyone's comfort and safety, the studio entrance buzzer may be disabled once a class has started.

6. Health and Wellbeing

Yoga can support physical and mental wellbeing, but everyone's body and circumstances are different.

Please let your teacher know about any injuries, health conditions or limitations that could affect your practice.

If you're unsure whether a class is suitable for you, we encourage you to seek appropriate medical advice.

We encourage everyone to practise at their own pace, listen to their body and take rest whenever needed.

We take reasonable care to provide a safe environment, but participation in physical activity involves some inherent risks.

Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or any other liability that cannot legally be excluded.

7. Personal Belongings

Please take reasonable care of your personal belongings while visiting the studio.

We cannot accept responsibility for loss or damage unless it results from our negligence or another legal responsibility.

8. Our Community and Safer Spaces

Space to Breathe is more than a yoga studio. We're a collective built on kindness, mutual respect, inclusion and shared responsibility.

We want everybody to feel safe, supported and welcome.

We ask everyone to:

- Treat others with kindness and respect.

- Respect people's differences, boundaries and personal space.

- Help us maintain a welcoming and inclusive environment.

- Follow our Safer Spaces Statement.

Discrimination, harassment, bullying or behaviour that compromises the wellbeing of others will not be tolerated.

Where necessary, we may refuse access to a class or end a membership to protect the safety and wellbeing of our community.

We will aim to deal with concerns fairly and proportionately, taking account of the circumstances.

Any refunds in these situations will be considered in accordance with applicable law.

9. Our Cooperative Approach

The Space to Breathe Collective operates as a not-for-profit community interest company.

Our income is used to support our teachers, maintain our spaces and keep yoga accessible to as many people as possible.

We work cooperatively and make decisions through open, inclusive processes.

Our community assemblies take place every two months, and everyone is welcome to attend, contribute ideas and help shape the future of the collective.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes to our services or how the collective operates.

Updated terms will be published on our website. Any material changes affecting existing memberships will be communicated appropriately.

Changes will not remove rights that members already have under the law.

11. Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

Nothing in these terms affects your statutory consumer rights.
