Terms & Conditions

. Joining a Team

• Catalyst Team membership payments are paid via direct debit, every four weeks.
• When you join the waitlist, the Catalyst team will aim to be in touch within 24 hours (Monday - Friday, 09:00 - 17:00) to confirm your place on the waitlist and offer a suitable space on a team if there is one available. If you are offered a space and choose to accept, you will be sent a link to set up your direct debit, alongside a discount code providing 50% off your first payment.
• After your first four weeks, your subscription price will rise to the standard amount and you will be eligible to receive:
  • an free or heavily subsidised item of team uniform (vest, t-shirt or sweatshirt) alongside an embroidered patch with the team logo
  • personalised training plans upon request discounts
  • 50% off a single private coaching each month
  • Discounts with Catalyst partnered brands.
• To request your team kit, patch or a personalised plan, please contact enquiries@catalystclimbing.com after your first full price renewal.  
• After every 6th renewal payment (not including your initial half-price trial month), you will be eligible for 50% off your next payment. When you are owed a loyalty discount on your 7th/14th/21st etc payment, please contact enquiries@catalystclimbing.com before the payment processes in order to have this applied. Missed loyalty discounts cannot be applied retroactively.
• Information on your membership (such as training schedule, discount codes etc) will be emailed out at the beginning of each month in a team newsletter. If you have not received your newsletter after setting up your membership, please first check your spam inbox and if not present there, contact enquiries@catalystclimbing.com

  Session Cancellation

• If an in-person training session is cancelled by Catalyst with more than 24 hours notice , the cost of the cancelled session will be removed from your next scheduled direct debit payment. If cancelation notification is provided less than 24 hours before a session is due to begin, your next direct debit payment will instead be reduced by 1.5 times the cost of the cancelled session.

  Membership Freeze

• A membership freeze can be requested for any expected absence. In order to request a freeze, please contact enquiries@catalystclimbing.com and confirm the number of weeks you wish to freeze your membership for. Freezes must be requested at least 24 hours before your next in-person training session and must last a minimum of 1 week.
• In total, 12 weeks of freeze time can be used per year. If you are joining a team part way through the calendar year, your allocated freeze time for the remainder of the year will be proportional to the amount of training your eligible for before your freeze bank resets on January 1st, the following year. Any unused freeze time cannot be carried over into the next year. If a week of freeze includes dates spanning from the end of the previous year to the start of the subsequent year, this will count towards the previous year's freeze allocation.
• Freezing your membership delays your next scheduled direct debit payment by the amount of freeze time applied.
• If you request a freeze more than 24 hours in advance of your next missed session, but we are not able to action the freeze immediately (e.g. your email request is sent over the weekend) we will apply any remaining freeze requested and remove the cost of the missed session from your next direct debit payment.

Sickness Policy 

• To avoid spreading illness among team members and coaches, we request that you refrain from attending in-person training if you are currently suffering from a contagious sickness such as cold or flu.
• If you are to miss a session due to illness, please report this absence via an email to enquiries@catalystclimbing.com. Your absence will be noted and the cost of the missed session will be removed from your next scheduled direct debit payment, however this absence will not be counted as part of your freeze allowance (which covers general absences such as holidays).
• As illness is counted as an extenuating circumstance, notice of absence can be provided within 24 hours of the missed session start time.
• If extended periods of absence are taken, our administrative team may get in touch via email to check-in and discuss whether you would like to continue your membership or open your spot to another student on our waitlist.
• Catalyst Climbing reserves the right to cancel your membership should misuse of our sickness policy come to light.

Membership Cancellation

• If you wish to cancel your membership, you must request cancellation in an email to enquiries@catalystclimbing.com, at least 5 days before your next payment is due to give us time to process the cancellation. Cancellation is always applied at the end of your current billing cycle (as long as adequate notice has been given), so you are able to attend any remaining in-person sessions within your current cycle.

• The price of Catalyst Courses purchases entry onto all associated trianing sessions.
• If you are unable to attend a session that is due to run as scheduled, please email enquiries@catalystclimbing.com notifying of your absence. You will then be sent a copy of the session plan to use in your own time. No refunds will be given for missed sessions where session plans can be provided.
• If a session associated with a course is cancelled by Catalyst, you will be sent the session plan and refunded a proportinal amount of your initial payment. For example, if the course is 4 sessions in length and one of those sessions is cancelled, you will receive a refund worth 25% of your initial payment.
