6. Cancellation by Participants

Cancellations must be submitted in writing to:

info@salsabrosa.ch

at least two weeks before the start of the next course period.

If no cancellation is received within this period, the registration is automatically renewed for the following course period and the corresponding course fee becomes payable.

7. Refunds and Missed Lessons

Paid course fees are generally non-refundable.

A full refund will only be issued if Salsabrosa cancels a course and no suitable alternative can be offered.

No refunds will be granted for interruptions or cancellations resulting from force majeure, including government measures, epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters, or similar circumstances beyond Salsabrosa’s control.

Missed Lessons

Lessons missed due to personal absence may be made up during the current course period if:

the absence is communicated to the responsible instructor at least 8 hours in advance; and
the make-up lesson takes place within the same course period whenever possible.

Unused lessons cannot be transferred to future periods and are not refundable.

In justified exceptional cases, an alternative arrangement may be agreed upon in advance with the instructors. Retroactive exceptions are excluded.

8. Public Holidays and Schedule Changes

Salsabrosa reserves the right to adjust schedules, instructors, lesson formats, course content, and teaching locations at any time.

Participants will be informed as early as reasonably possible about cancellations due to public holidays, school holidays, or organizational reasons.

Where possible, cancelled lessons may be made up during the current course period.

9. Dance Partners

Participants may register with or without a dance partner.

Salsabrosa will make reasonable efforts to balance partner participation but cannot guarantee a fixed or permanent dance partner.

10. Referral Credit

Participants who successfully refer a new paying participant receive a credit of CHF 40.00 toward future course fees.

Referral credits are only granted after the referred participant has fully paid their course fee.

Dance partners registered together are not considered referrals.

11. Health, Insurance, and Liability

Participation in classes, workshops, and events is voluntary and at the participant’s own risk.

Participants are responsible for ensuring that they are physically and mentally fit to participate and that they maintain adequate accident and liability insurance coverage.

To the extent permitted by Swiss law, Salsabrosa excludes liability for injuries, accidents, theft, loss of personal belongings, or damages arising from participation in activities or use of the premises, except in cases of gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

12. Photo and Video Recordings

Photography, video recordings, and audio recordings during classes or events are only permitted with prior approval from Salsabrosa or the responsible instructor.

By attending courses or events, participants consent to the possible creation and publication of photographs and video recordings by Salsabrosa for marketing, social media, and promotional purposes, unless the participant expressly objects in writing in advance.

13. Data Protection

Personal data is processed confidentially and in accordance with applicable Swiss data protection laws.

Data is used exclusively for internal administration, communication, and service-related purposes and will not be sold or disclosed to unrelated third parties without consent, unless required by law.

Further information may be provided in a separate Privacy Policy.

14. Intellectual Property

All website content, branding, logos, photos, videos, and teaching materials remain the intellectual property of Salsabrosa unless otherwise stated.

Any reproduction, distribution, or commercial use without prior written consent is prohibited.

15. Website and External Links

This website may contain links to third-party websites. Salsabrosa has no influence over external content and accepts no responsibility for external websites or their privacy practices.

16. Amendments

Salsabrosa reserves the right to amend these GTC at any time.

The currently published version on the website shall apply.

17. Severability Clause

Should any provision of these GTC be held invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.

The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the original economic intent.

18. Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

These GTC are governed exclusively by Swiss law.

The place of jurisdiction for all disputes shall be the registered office of Salsabrosa GmbH, unless mandatory legal provisions provide otherwise.

19. Non-Binding Dance Floor Side Effects

Participation in Salsabrosa activities may lead to increased confidence, improved rhythm, spontaneous happiness, and unexpected dance floor popularity. Such effects are anecdotal, non-guaranteed, and legally non-binding.

Salsabrosa accepts no responsibility for:

excessive smiling after classes;
sudden improvements in posture or musical taste;
spontaneous use of Spanish expressions;
increased social invitations; or
compliments received while dancing Salsa or Bachata.
Participants further acknowledge that prolonged exposure to Latin music and social dancing may result in:
improved cultural awareness;
accidental language acquisition;
stronger opinions about timing and musicality; and
the realization that “just one class” rarely stays just one class.
Any resulting coolness, charisma, or dance addiction shall not constitute grounds for refund or legal claims.
