Participant Behaviour

If any participant is found to have been drinking alcohol or to be under the influence of drugs when attending any session then UA has the right to remove that participant from the course with immediate effect.

If a participant is deemed: verbally abusive, aggressive, repeatedly disrespectful, persistently rude, or showing a quality of behaviour not in line with a positive working attitude, UA has the right to remove that student with immediate effect.

Students who are removed will not receive refunds.

Health, Medical and/or Learning Difficulties

To help your progress, you may be invited to explore your emotional psychology and many of the workshops involve physical movement. You must inform the UA team of any medical conditions, including (but not limited to): mental health conditions, neurodivergent conditions, physical conditions, or any relatable factor which may affect you during the course and/or that may require UA to adjust the training for your learning. In response to this information, you hereby confirm that you are medically, physically and mentally in good health and/or fit enough to take part. If you do have a health condition - but your doctor has advised that you are fit and able enough to take part, please disclose this information at the time of application.

Should you choose not to inform UA of any conditions or disabilities, you must take full responsibility, and accept the possibility that the tutor may ask you to leave or be moved to a more applicable class.

Photo/Video Permission

The occasional photo/video may be taken during your workshops, to be used for our website and social media. UA will assume consent to images and video usage unless notified otherwise. Please let us know before your first session if you do not want us to use photos or videos of you.

As a participant, while we do not advocate phone usage during our workshops, you may take photos and videos, so long as it doesn't interfere with the workshops. This will be left to the opinion of the tutor.

Tutor Attendance

All tutors are also working professionals. Due to this, tutors may be called to work with short notice. In these instances, an alternative acting tutor will be provided as cover. In the rare case that a session has to be cancelled, an alternative session will be offered to you.
