Acceptance of These Terms
By accessing or using Yogapedia India, submitting information,
creating a profile, contacting a teacher, requesting an introductory interaction, making a booking or making a payment through the platform, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.
If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the platform.
Role of Yogapedia India
Yogapedia India operates as a discovery, connection and booking platform.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, Yogapedia India does not itself provide yoga instruction or act as the employer of any teacher listed on the platform.
Teachers listed on Yogapedia India are independent professionals responsible for the services they provide to learners.
Yogapedia India may provide tools and services for:
• Teacher discovery
• Teacher profiles
• Teacher verification
• Learner enquiries
• Introductory interactions
• Booking and scheduling
• Payment processing
• Communication and reminders
• Reviews, feedback and platform support
Teacher Profiles and Verification
Teachers are responsible for providing accurate information about their qualifications, certifications, experience, teaching methods, location, availability and services.
Yogapedia India may review information and documents submitted by teachers and may display a verification indicator where applicable.
A verification badge means that Yogapedia India has completed the verification process applicable to that particular profile.
It does not constitute a guarantee of the teacher’s professional competence, teaching outcome, medical suitability or personal conduct.
Learners should independently review a teacher’s profile and make their own decision before booking.
Learner Responsibility
Learners are responsible for choosing a teacher and service that is appropriate for their individual needs.
Before participating in yoga or any physical activity, learners should consider their own health, fitness level, injuries, pregnancy status, medical conditions and other relevant circumstances.
Where appropriate, learners should consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning or changing a physical activity or yoga practice.
Learners must provide a teacher with information that is reasonably necessary for conducting a session safely.
Yoga Is Not Medical Treatment
Unless a person is appropriately qualified and legally authorised to provide healthcare services, yoga teachers listed on the platform should not represent yoga instruction as a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment.
Yogapedia India does not guarantee that yoga or any teacher’s services will cure, treat, prevent or improve a particular medical condition.
Introductory Sessions
Yogapedia India may facilitate a 30-minute introductory video interaction between a learner and teacher.
The purpose of the introductory interaction is to allow the learner and teacher to understand each other’s requirements, teaching approach, suitability and expectations.
Unless otherwise stated at the time of booking, the introductory interaction is free for the learner and no teacher fee is payable for this introductory interaction.
The timing of the introductory interaction will be mutually agreed between the learner and teacher.
Bookings
Where paid booking is available, the learner may select an available teacher, service, date and time.
A booking is confirmed only after the platform confirms the booking and, where payment is required, successful payment has been received.
A teacher may be required to approve a booking depending on the booking workflow used by Yogapedia India.
Fees and Payments
The applicable price will be displayed before the learner completes payment.
Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers.
Yogapedia India does not intentionally store payment credentials such as card numbers, CVV numbers, UPI PINs or banking passwords.
Payment processing is subject to the terms and policies of the applicable payment provider.
Cancellation and Refunds
Cancellations and refunds are governed by the Yogapedia India Refund & Cancellation Policy published on the website.
Additional cancellation conditions may be displayed before a particular booking is completed.
Teacher Independence
Teachers listed on Yogapedia India are independent professionals.
Nothing on the platform creates an employer-employee relationship, partnership, joint venture, franchise, agency or other employment relationship between Yogapedia India/Nikita Enterprises and a teacher.
