(Please note: Non-refundable portions of retreat fees are also non-transferable to other individuals or retreats)

Attendance for the full length of the retreat is required, including timely arrival, timely departure and full participation in work meditations. These are extremely important areas for maintaining the integrity of the retreat as a whole and for enabling Cloud Mountain to continue to offer retreats that are grounded in the tradition of a cooperative and interdependent structure.

Late arrivals and early departure requests are only granted under exceptional circumstances. Any exception request to the policy to arrive late, depart early or participate in work meditations needs to made and approved by both the retreat center and the teacher(s) prior to registering into the retreat. Your space on the retreat may be withdrawn and a cancellation issued (with the appropriate cancellation fee withheld) if you discover after registering that you cannot attend the entire retreat.

These areas of maintaining the integrity of the retreat environment are of such strong concern to us that an individual’s continued retreat privileges are contingent upon respecting and abiding by these expectations. A first instance of non-compliance in any of these areas will result in our sending a warning letter. A second instance will result in a one-year suspension of retreat privileges. “No shows” – those who do not alert us that they will not be attending the retreat – will not be registered for future retreats. We see these as ethical breaches; each retreatant has given their word in advance that they will abide by these expectations. Breaking these promises can be viewed as both false speech and taking what is not offered. In instances where the non-compliance is egregious, we retain the right to withdraw retreat privileges permanently.

Spaces on retreats are not transferable to other individuals. Non-refundable portions of retreat fees are also non-transferable to other individuals or retreats. Regretfully, we do not offer free transfers between retreats.
