Terms of Service
Last Updated: May 25, 2024
Welcome to Cayuga Movement! Before we begin our health journey, we want to ensure you’re fully informed about the details and logistics of working with us. Cayuga Movement LLC (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us”) provides fitness coaching, nutritional coaching, and other health services like assisted stretching and myofascial mobilizations. By reading our website or engaging in our services, you agree to comply with and be bound by the following terms of service. Please read these terms carefully before committing to our services.
1. Your Relationship with Cayuga Movement
Your use of Cayuga Movement’s products and services (referred to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services provided to you by Cayuga Movement under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and Cayuga Movement. “CM” means Cayuga Movement LLC. This document explains how the agreement is made up, and sets out some of the terms of that agreement.
Included in the use of “CM” are the employees of Cayuga Movement and independent contractors commissioned by Cayuga Movement.
Any use of the word “You” or “Client,” including plural, possessive, and uncapitalized forms, means the family and/or student receiving Services from CM.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing with CM, your agreement with CM will always include, at minimum, the terms and conditions set out in this document. These are referred to below as the “Terms”.
2. Agreement Commencement
To use the Services, you must first agree to the Terms. You may not use the Services if you do not accept the Terms.
You can accept the Terms by using the Services. In this case, you understand and agree that CM will treat your use of the Services as acceptance of the Terms from that point onwards.
By visiting our website, contacting us, and scheduling services with Cayuga Movement, you accept and agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.
3. Provision of the Services by Cayuga Movement
Cayuga Movement, its coaches, employees, and contractors do not guarantee any specific improvement level, amount of weight loss, or specific health results from using the Services.
Cayuga Movement has a host of coaches. If you are unsatisfied with your coach, a request for a change of coach may be made by contacting CM.
Use of the Services by You: You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that CM has no responsibility to you or any third party for) any breach of your obligations under the Terms and for the consequences (including any loss or damage which CM may suffer) of any such breach.
4. Billing and Payment
Agreement to Pay: By accepting this agreement, you agree to pay for all services CM provides from the commencement of the first session.
Session Duration: Session rates are determined for the full duration of a standard 55-minute session. Sessions under 55 minutes will be rounded up to 55 minutes. After 55 minutes, billing is billed in 15-minute increments. Preparation and communication time may also be billed.
Cancellations: Must be made at least 24 hours before a session. Late cancellations or no-shows will be charged the full session cost.
Invoicing: Invoices are emailed monthly. Payment is due within 7 days of the invoice date.
Payment Methods: Payments must not be given directly to coaches. Payments can be made by check (include client name), debit card, cash, ACH, or direct transfer without a processing fee. Credit card payments incur a 3% fee.
Late Payments: Failure to pay within 60 days may result in service termination and your account being sent to a debt collection agency with an additional 5% charge.
Banking Fees: If CM incurs fees due to stopped payments, returned checks, or credit card issues, you will be charged an additional $100 service fee plus the cost of the fees incurred.
No Refunds: CM does not issue refunds for services rendered or agreed-upon packages for any reason.
Additional Billing: CM reserves the right to bill for preparation, communication, or other necessary activities in 15-minute increments.
5. Limitation of Liability
Cayuga Movement and its coaches do not and cannot guarantee results. Client dissatisfaction does not absolve the Client from payment of services rendered.
CM is not responsible for any illness, injury, or damage to the Client or the Client’s property that may occur during or related to the Services. The Client releases CM from culpability of such illness, injury, or damage. Cayuga Movement shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from the use or inability to use the Services.
CM does not authorize its coaches, employees, or contractors to transport clients in their vehicles under any circumstance. CM does not carry insurance that covers the transportation of clients.
CM provides links to third-party websites and recommendations for third-party institutions for your convenience and use. Because CM has no control or dominion over such sites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that CM is not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources and does not endorse, nor is responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such site or resource.
6. Right to Refuse Service
We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone at our sole discretion. This may include but is not limited to, situations where the client is not complying with the terms of this agreement, engaging in inappropriate behavior, or any other reason at the sole discretion of Cayuga Movement.

8. Confidentiality of Client Information
Definition: "Confidential Information" means any non-public information disclosed by the Client to CM, including but not limited to personal data, academic records, financial information, and any other information that is marked or identified as confidential at the time of disclosure.

9. Governing Law & General Legal Terms
The Terms constitute the whole legal agreement between you and CM and govern your use of the Services (but excluding any services which CM may provide to you under a separate written agreement), and completely replace any prior agreements between you and CM in relation to the Services.
You agree that CM may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms, by email, regular mail, or postings on the website.
You agree that if CM does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy that is contained in the Terms (or which CM has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of CM’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to CM.
If any court of law, having the jurisdiction to decide on this matter, rules that any provision of these Terms is invalid, then that provision will be removed from the Terms without affecting the rest of the Terms. The remaining provisions of the Terms will continue to be valid and enforceable.
The Terms and your relationship with CM under the Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. You and CM agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of San Francisco, California to resolve any legal matter arising from the Terms. Notwithstanding this, you agree that CM shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction.

Effect of Force Majeure: Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement if such failure or delay is due to a Force Majeure event. The affected party shall be excused from performance for the duration of the Force Majeure event.
Notification: The affected party must notify the other party in writing as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event, providing details of the event and its expected impact on performance.
Mitigation: The affected party shall use all reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the Force Majeure event and resume the performance of its obligations as soon as possible.
