Membership, Free Trials, Retreats, Billing and Cancellation
Membership
Ongoing Membership. Your Thick Thigh Yoga membership, which may start with a free trial, will continue month-to-month or year-to-year, based on your membership type and automatically renew unless and until you cancel your membership or we terminate it. You must have Internet access and provide us with a current, valid, accepted method of payment (as such may be updated from time to time, "Payment Method") to use the Thick Thigh Yoga service. We will bill the monthly or yearly membership fee to your Payment Method. You must cancel your membership before it renews each month or each year in order to avoid billing of the next months or next years membership fees to your Payment Method.

SIGN IN TO "YOUR ACCOUNT TO FIND CANCELLATION INSTRUCTIONS. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a monthly basis for your membership fee.
Retreat
All retreat terms, conditions and requirements are fully listed and explained in the Retreat Release Waiver.
Billing
Recurring Billing. By starting your Thick Thigh Yoga membership and providing or designating a Payment Method, you authorize us to charge you a monthly or yearly membership fee at the then current rate, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Thick Thigh Yoga service, such as taxes or possible transaction fees, to your Payment Method. You acknowledge that the amount billed each month or year may vary from month to month or year-to-year for reasons that may include differing amounts due to promotional offers, including gift card redemption and promotional code redemption, and/or changing or adding a plan, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for such varying amounts, which may be billed monthly or yearly in one or more charges.
Price Changes. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for our service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, any price changes to your service will take effect following email notice to you.
Billing Cycle. The membership fee for our service will be billed at the beginning of the paying portion of your membership and each month or year thereafter unless and until you cancel your membership. We automatically bill your Payment Method each month or each year on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your paying membership. Membership fees are fully earned upon payment. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, in particular, as indicated below, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled. In the event your paying membership began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill your Payment Method on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started your Thick Thigh Yoga membership or became a paying member on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th if paying monthly, and your Payment Method would be billed on that date. Your renewal date may change due to changes in your Membership. Visit our website and click on the "View billing details" link on the "Your Account" page to see the commencement date for your next renewal period. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges.

Unless otherwise stated differently, month or monthly or yearly refers to your billing cycle.
No Refunds. PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all our members.
Payment Methods. You may edit your Payment Method information by visiting our website and clicking on the "Your Account" link, available at the top of the pages of the Thick Thigh Yoga website. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account (see, "Cancellation" below), you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates. For certain Payment Methods, the issuer of your Payment Method may charge you a foreign transaction fee or other charges. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.
Cancellation. You may cancel your Thick Thigh Yoga membership at any time, and you will continue to have access to the Thick Thigh Yoga service through the end of your monthly billing period.

Arbitration Agreement
If you are a Thick Thigh Yoga member in the United States (including its possessions and territories), you and Thick Thigh Yoga agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Thick Thigh Yoga service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court. All arbitration or small claims proceedings under this Agreement shall be held exclusively in New York. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Thick Thigh Yoga are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your Thick Thigh Yoga membership.
If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send to Thick Thigh Yoga, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim ("Notice"). The Notice to Thick Thigh Yoga must be addressed to: General Counsel, Thick Thigh Yoga, Inc.,14010 173rd street Jamaica NY. If Thick Thigh Yoga initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your membership account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by Thick Thigh Yoga, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If Thick Thigh Yoga and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Thick Thigh Yoga may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.
You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after Thick Thigh Yoga receives notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, Thick Thigh Yoga will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.
The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Unless Thick Thigh Yoga and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your residence.
If your claim is for US$10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. All arbitration proceedings under this Agreement shall be held exclusively in New York. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision explaining the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of Thick Thigh Yoga’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if Thick Thigh Yoga did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then Thick Thigh Yoga will pay you the amount of the award or US$5,000, whichever is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
YOU AND Thick Thigh Yoga AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Thick Thigh Yoga agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.
Survival. If any provision or provisions of these Terms of Use shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Released Party from any loss, cost, or liability incurred in defending any Claim made by you or anyone making a Claim on your behalf, even if the Claim is alleged to or did result from the negligence of any Released Party or anyone else.

If necessary I will seek medical advisement and/or assistance independently and will not seek compensation from any Thick Thigh Yoga owners or released parties. I will respect the terms and policies of Thick Thigh Yoga and released parties. I give Thick Thigh Yoga and any released parties the right to take pictures or videos and use my first name to help advertise and promote the business on distribution goods including but not limited to flyers, brochures, and pamphlets, and social media sites.
You acknowledge that you have carefully read this section of the Terms of Use and fully understand its contents. You voluntarily and knowingly agree to these Terms of Use. You are aware that by accepting these Terms of Use, you are giving up substantial rights, including your right to sue and certain legal rights your heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators and assigns may have against any Released Party.
