Terms & Conditions (T&C)

Scope

The following Terms & Conditions (T&C) apply to all participants of courses (all activities listed on www.shaolinchanarts.com — especially seminars and retreats — are referred to below as courses) organized by redenistsilber KlG. The T&C are based on Swiss law and apply unless expressly or implicitly acknowledged by both parties. Changes and side agreements are valid only if agreed upon in writing.

If any provision of the contractual agreements or these T&C is or becomes invalid or contains a legal gap, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by one that comes closest to the meaning of the invalid provision.

Registration

Registration for a course becomes binding once the participant submits a written registration (e.g., through the website or by email). Spots are allocated based on payment received, not registration date. Cancellations or changes must be submitted in writing (email acceptable).

Participation Fees

Participation fees vary depending on the course and are indicated in the course description. Prices are listed without VAT. Participants receive an invoice which must be paid within the stated deadline.

For retreats: Full payment is due at least 60 days before the retreat begins.

For seminars: The participation fee must be paid within 30 days of receiving the invoice, but no later than before the seminar begins.

Course Execution

Courses take place only with sufficient registrations. redenistsilber KlG may combine or reschedule courses. Registrations remain valid in such cases. If a course is rescheduled, participants may withdraw within a specified time. If a course is canceled, any fees already paid will be fully refunded. Program changes (e.g., schedule, instructor, venue) may occur as long as they do not significantly alter the overall character of the course.
