Application Fee

• A one-time, non-refundable application fee of S$ 50 will apply for each application.
• Trial classes are available for new students, priced at $50 for a 45-min individual session or $28 for a 60-min group session (if available).
• If the student signs up for the course on the day of the trial, the application fee will be waived.
• A one-month deposit of fees will also be collected.

Lesson Fees and Payment Schedule

• Students are required to pay for 4 lessons per month, with payment collected on the first lesson of each month.
• For months with 5 weeks, students may choose to either:
  • Opt for a pro-rated monthly rate covering 5 lessons, or
  • Treat the 5th week as a break, or
  • Utilise a make-up credit on the 5th week

Flexi Plan

• For students who are unable to commit to attending 4 lessons per month, the Flexi Plan allows more flexibility with a 30% increase on the regular fees.
• Students will pay for 4 lessons upfront at the beginning of the cycle.
• They can cancel any lesson with a minimum of 48 hours’ advanced notice, without losing credit for that lesson.

Attendance Expectations, Rescheduling and Cancellations

• Students are expected to attend lessons weekly to maintain consistency in their learning progress and development.
• Should a student be unable to attend a scheduled lesson, a minimum of 48-hours notice is required for rescheduling. This lesson will then be converted to a make-up lesson credit.
• In cases where a student is unwell and provides a valid Medical Certificate (MC), the lesson will be converted to a make-up lesson credit.
• In the event a student is unable to provide an MC or give a 48-hours notice, the lesson willl be considered a last-minute cancellation and forfeited.
• Make-up lesson credits will not be provided for group classes.

Use of Make-Up Lesson Credits (For Individual Weekly Lessons only)

• Make-up lesson credits may be used to either extend the duration of a future lesson or to schedule a lesson on an alternative day, based on the Instructor’s and room availability.
• Make-up lesson credits cannot be used to offset regular lesson payments.
• Make-up lesson credits are valid for one year from the date of issuance and are only applicable to active students. These credits are strictly non-refundable, non-transferable, and are issued at the discretion of SOMA.

SOMA-initiated Cancellations and Public Holidays

• SOMA is closed during Public Holidays.
• If a Public Holiday falls on a lesson day, there will be no lesson on that day. The lesson fees for that day will not be charged, and students will be notified of this when making payment at the beginning of the month.
• In the event that SOMA is unable to conduct a lesson (e.g., due to instructor unavailability), the following month’s fees will be pro-rated accordingly.

Withdrawal Process

• Any student who intends to withdraw from classes at SOMA indefinitely, must notify SOMA one month in advance by submitting a Weekly Lesson Withdrawal Form.
• Any outstanding fees have to be settled before withdrawal from the course.
• Any make-up lesson credits have to be utilized before withdrawal, otherwise forfeited.

Deposit and Fee Adjustment Policy

• The deposit paid covers four lessons at the prevailing course fee and level at the time of payment. Should there be any increase in course fees between the date of deposit payment and the actual utilisation of the lessons (in the case of a withdrawal), the student is required to top up the difference (if any) to match the current course fees and level in order to utilise the deposit.

Late Payment Fees

• An administrative fee of S$ 10 per calendar day will apply for fees not received by the first lesson of the month.
