COVID Policy
I have undiagnosed long-term fatigue, which means that:
I will not practice during symptoms and might have to cancel last minute. For this you will be re-imbursed or you can choose to leave credit for a different session.
If you develop any symptoms, please let me know prior to your session, as we might have to re-arrange it for another time.
