DISPUTE RESOLUTION

It is the intent of Company that should any differences arise, we could work them out amicably through written correspondence. However, should we be unable to seek resolution within a reasonable time, you agree now that that the only method of legal dispute resolution that will be used is binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, selected jointly, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Rules. Prior to seeking arbitration, you must send an e-mail to us at Embodied Awareness, LLC and include all of your reasons for dissatisfaction with your Program. You understand and agree now that the only remedy that can be awarded to you through arbitration is full refund of your Payment made to date. No other actions or financial awards of consequential damages, or any other type of damages, may be granted to you. We both agree now that the decision of the arbitrator is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment into any court having the appropriate jurisdiction.

By purchasing our Programs, Classes, Products, Services and/or Program Materials you are agreeing to a modification of the statute of limitations such that any arbitration must begin within (1) year of the date of your correspondence referenced above or you waive the right to seek dispute resolution by arbitration or take any other legal action.
