General Terms and Conditions

1. GENERAL

These terms and conditions govern all offers and services in the "Move" area provided by Maria Wolfsberger (hereinafter referred to as the "Service Provider").

By utilizing any offer or service provided by the Service Provider, the user fully and unreservedly accepts these terms and conditions. Maria Wolfsberger organizes and conducts yoga and movement classes as well as workshops based on these terms and the most up-to-date schedule.

2. RIGHT OF USE

a) Participation in yoga classes and workshops is only possible if the customer arrives punctually at the specified start time at the respective studio. For organizational reasons and out of respect for other participants, late arrivals will not be admitted once the class has begun.

b) During classes and workshops, customers must behave in a manner that does not disrupt the flow of the session. Studio facilities must be treated with care, and no actions should negatively impact other participants. Silence must be observed during classes, and disturbances, particularly those caused by technical devices, must be avoided. Customers are required to adhere to the studio rules, in the interest of all participants, and to follow the instructions of Maria Wolfsberger. In cases of severe violations of these terms by the customer—such as acts of violence, threats, insults, sexual harassment, theft, or poor hygiene—the customer may be barred from attending classes and workshops immediately after the first offense. In such cases, any unused passes (e.g., 10-class blocks) will be forfeited without entitlement to a refund.

To maintain a peaceful environment and ensure the orderly and uninterrupted flow of classes, the Service Provider reserves the right to refuse further services without providing reasons. In such cases, any unused passes (e.g., 10-class blocks) will be refunded proportionally.

3. CONTRACT TYPES AND CONDITIONS

a) Workshop or Event Ticket
(Prices vary, available online)
Depending on the event, workshop, or class, this ticket entitles the holder to participate in a single yoga class or the booked workshop/event.

b) Prices and Payment
All prices are listed online on the respective yoga studio's website and are inclusive of 20% VAT, representing the final consumer price. Payment must be made immediately upon purchasing the pass, either in cash on-site, via debit card, credit card, online through the booking system (using the chosen payment method), or by bank transfer (e.g., for workshop pre-registration). Payment must always be completed prior to the start of the respective class.

c) Limited Class Size / Schedule Changes
Maria Wolfsberger offers open classes, meaning participation in the yoga sessions listed in the schedule generally does not require prior registration. However, the studios have a limited capacity for participants. During busy times, a spot in a particular class cannot be guaranteed. Customers are advised to arrive on time before each session. Participants will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis at the reception.

e) Cancellations for Workshops, Events & Retreats
Workshops, events, and retreats are usually paid for in advance via bank transfer or through the specified booking system using the selected payment method (e.g., instant transfer, credit card, etc.).

If payment is made on-site, and a cancellation occurs less than two days before the event or in case of a no-show, 100% of the participation fee must still be paid via bank transfer.

4. WORKSHOPS

All workshops require a minimum of 5 participants to take place. If a workshop is canceled due to insufficient registrations, the registration fee will either be refunded or credited for a future workshop, as preferred by the participant.

If a workshop is canceled for other reasons by the Service Provider, the registration fee will also be refunded or, upon request, credited for future use.

5. LIABILITY

Participation is at the participant's own risk and responsibility. Maria Wolfsberger is not liable for any consequences of improperly performed exercises or any resulting health issues.

6. HEALTH CONDITION OF PARTICIPANTS

By purchasing a pass, each customer declares that they are physically healthy, mentally stable, and capable of meeting the physical and mental requirements of the yoga classes or workshops. Participation in yoga classes or workshops under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or strong medication is strictly prohibited.

The services offered are not intended as therapy or healing programs and do not replace medical care or prescribed medications. Maria Wolfsberger reserves the right, based on her assessment of the customer’s health condition, to deny participation in yoga classes. This decision does not impose an obligation to verify the health condition or any liability for the decision.

By participating, the customer confirms they do not suffer from any contagious diseases and that there are no medical reasons preventing them from performing the yoga exercises. In case of doubt, a doctor should be consulted. Chronic illnesses or other physical or psychological conditions that could affect or endanger other participants’ yoga practice must be disclosed to the instructor before the session begins.

In the case of pregnancy, the customer is required to obtain medical clearance before participating.

7. DATA PROTECTION POLICY

Customer data may be used for contract fulfillment purposes and for the Service Provider's own promotional activities but will not be shared with third parties. The customer agrees that their data may be stored in the Service Provider's electronic data processing system for up to 10 years after their last attendance of a class, workshop, or retreat. All information will be handled confidentially and in compliance with applicable data protection regulations.

8. JURISDICTION AND APPLICABLE LAW

Austrian substantive law applies, excluding any conflict-of-law rules. If the Consumer Protection Act (KSchG) does not apply to the contractual relationship, the exclusive jurisdiction for all disputes between Maria Wolfsberger and the customer is the court with subject-matter jurisdiction at the Service Provider's location. Effective as of January 2020.

9. MISCELLANEOUS

There are no supplementary agreements to these Terms and Conditions. Any amendments to these Terms and Conditions must be made in writing, including the rescission of this requirement.

Should any provision of these Terms and Conditions be wholly or partially invalid, this does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid provision will be replaced by a provision that most closely reflects the economic purpose of the invalid one.

The requirement for written form is met by communication via email. If the customer has provided an email address, all correspondence between the contractual parties may be conducted via email.
