No I’m sorry I do not. 

Because of the nature of my business and the services I offer, they are considered intellectual property, therefore I cannot offer refunds for any of my classes, services, programs, or courses. 

Unfortunately that is NOT an option for this introductory class because it’s the only individual class I’m offering. 

Every other yoga “class” I’ll be offering will be in a SERIES of six classes. Now those will be available to exchange with certain conditions.  

But with this single one-time introductory class, I am sorry there are no exchanges or refunds. 

My official yoga classes in the series you are purchasing are all pre-recorded. 

You’ll receive links weekly for you access and download content for you to have access and keep for as long as you desire. 

I don’t teach in a physical yoga studio, I teach online virtually through videos.

However, I will be offering LIVE TUTORIAL CLASSES FOR MY STUDENTS who are enrolled in my yoga series and additional programs. 

When you purchase this introductory class, you’ll receive detailed instructions of how to receive and utilize the class. 

You’ll immediately receive a NEWSLETTER that contains the LINK that contains your SINGLE YOGA CLASS, an elegantly designed WORKBOOK, THE YOGA POSE ILLUSTRATIONS, the link to the FACEBOOK COMMUNITY, along with simple directions to get started and the absolute most from the INTRODUCTORY CLASS. 

You’ll be able to download and play the class and use the workbook on your own devices, at your own pace, and as often as necessary. your class

I’m sorry, but because of the nature of my services, I cannot guarantee results. Unfortunately, no one can. 

No two yoga classes or yoga teachers are the same or resonate with their students the same.

Although the people who purchase and participate in my services receive dramatic results, the final END RESULT depends heavily on the student, your physical health, your mental awareness, where you are in life, and the amount time and effort you have to dedicate to your practice. 

To receive the very best results with ANY class, series, or service you purchase, I HIGHLY recommend following my four-part process, keeping a positive mindset, realize you didn’t get here over night, and we won’t resolve serious issues over night either.

BE PATIENT with yourself and the results and just KEEP GOING.  

• I don’t. That’s traditionally more for those who are enrolled in a yoga-teacher training so everyone is on the same page.
  
  Traditional yoga classes and series don’t really work that way but let me explain the following, what I DO offer, and how you can best prepare so you know what to expect. 
• There are FOUR levels of yoga classes:
  Beginner: is literally someone who is brand-new to yoga and has no prior knowledge. They’re unfamiliar with what technically transpires in a yoga class, the poses, cueing, etc. the student is working to INCREASE their skill in order to advance to more difficult poses. 
• Level One: a student who has some limited yoga experience. They’ve either been practicing yoga for at least a little while either on their own or in a yoga classroom environment. They have basic working knowledge of what yoga is, how a class runs, what they foundational poses are, and can flow from pose to pose with some stability. The student is working to INCREASE their strength, balance, wisdom, and skill-set in order to advance to more difficult poses. 
• Intermediate: is a student who has been practicing yoga for a considerable amount of time, either in a studio or at home. They’re well-versed with foundational poses, some advanced poses, and can fluidly move from poses to pose with little or no challenges.
  
  Students have normally branched out to study different styles of yoga and are normally working hard to increase strength, stamina, stability, form. 
• Advanced: at this point, the student has an extensive yoga resume. They’ve studied yoga for a considerable amount of time, are well-versed in various types of yoga, can participate in class with little to no cuing, and are already teaching classes or preparing to do so. T
  
  They’re strong, confident, graceful, and make yoga look absolutely elegant. 
• In traditional yoga classes, it’s assumed that EVERY STUDENT has HAD some type of previous experience and many YOGA CLASSES THAT ARE  OFFERED are normally to “mixed” experience levels. 

The problem with that is, the yoga teachers tend to teach to the more advanced students leaving the beginner and level one students struggling to keep up.

If you’re brand-new to yoga or are at a level one, it’s very important to take classes that are specifically directed towards YOU and your CURRENT SKILL LEVEL, not what you WANT to be or used to be.

This way, you get the absolute most from the session. otherwise you spend a lot of time in Downward Facing Dog or Child’s Pose while the other students move through the intermediate or advanced poses.

HAVING SAID ALL OF THAT, what I DO is provide precise and intricate INSTRUCTION and CUEING to help you GET IN AND OUT OF THE POSE SAFELY, as well as provide alternative poses if you’re not ready for the ones being called, when and how to use blocks, straps, etc. 

• I also GO SLOWLY and COACH YOU along the way so you can keep up and build your confidence as you’re building skill.
  
  But if you are absolutely new like I was, you’ll want to do some additional study as you take classes. It’s just how yoga it works, everyone has to go through it. 

Yes! Of course you can! If you read my origin story, I share how I’d NEVER taken a yoga class in my life and started out in the instructor course. 

I believe you can do anything you put your mind too.

Plus my current classes are specifically designed for BEGINNER AND LEVEL ONE STUDENTS making them easier to access and learn from.  

But before you begin, I always recommend you speak to your doctor and make sure you are physically able to participate.

THIS is a very important question and I saved it for last. 

This is the most important question you can ask and what I can say is that it DEPENDS.

Before you purchase a series or even the introductory Goddess Imagine Reflection Experience, I HIGHLY SUGGEST that you speak with your doctor. 

Because you will be required to sign a LIABILITY WAIVER saying that if you have a medical condition that YOU, the STUDENT, have spoken with your primary care physician or physician who is treating your medical condition and are CLEARED TO BEGIN YOGA and that you’re not holding me responsible, IN ANY WAY, for any injuries that you may incur.

By signing the waiver it’s assumed that you have spoken to your physician and you are cleared to practice. So please make sure you do!

And let me say this if you do have any type of the following:
+ cancer
+ heart disease
+ heart attack
+ stroke
+ history of blood clots
+ deep-vein thrombosis
+ high blood pressure
+ diabetes
+ excessive bleeding
+ vertigo
+ chronic headaches
+ spinal issues – curvature of the spine, bulging and herniated disks
+ hernias of ALL types
+ dementia
+ broken bones
+ recent surgery
+ Multiple Sclerosis
+ ANY OTHER MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEMS NOY IST

You’ll definitely WANT TO GET MEDICAL CLEARANCE so you can practice safely and you’ll know what to look out for if a problem develops. It’s the SMART THING TO DO.  

Now having said ALL of that, it will depend on your physician. My doctor cleared me and told me to try what I could reasonably address.

Yoga is extremely helpful and healing to a myriad of issues, but you have to be careful. Yoga also requires the usage of your entire body, and if you’re weak in any area, you will have to build up muscle and strength.

You’ll feel much better knowing you’ve had the conversation and hopefully your PCP will give you things to look for so you can confidently participate. 

An ounce of prevention is definitely worth your piece of mind and being able to open fully to the practice.

PLEASE READ THIS: If you LIE TO ME and sign the waiver that YES you’ve received clearance and you really haven’t, then YOU my dear, are assuming responsibilities for any possible injuries that may occur holding me harmless and unable to sue. 

You become 100% liable for ANY and ALL injuries you may incur holding ME, Krysten Burkhardt-Hansyn or Goddess Imagine harmless and free from damages. 

I can’t check confirm your clearance because of HIPPA laws. One thing I can say about yoga and working with a teacher, we work to develop a level of trust and I have to trust you’ve done the right thing. 

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GETTING MEDICAL CLEARANCE.
