Naturally, no one books with the intention of cancelling or postponing their retreat or Teacher Training, but unexpected things do happen, and you may consider to purchase travel cancellation insurance to cover possible loss.

Depending on the policy and conditions, travel cancellation insurance will pay for some or all cancellation fees. With most agencies, insurance must be purchased within 14 days of making your reservation.
