These Terms and Conditions govern your participation in any events, retreats, or services provided by Inekawa Foundation. By registering for or attending an event hosted by Inekawa Foundation, you agree to the following terms:

1. General Agreement

2. Participation Requirements

• All participants must be at least 18 years old unless otherwise stated.

• Participants must provide accurate personal information during registration.

• Only members of the Inekawa Conscious Awakening Center (ICAC) are permitted to participate in sacred Ayahuasca ceremonies during Inekawa retreats. An annual membership is required, with a fee of $150. See membership details here: https://inekawaconsciousawakeningcenter.org/membership

• You agree to follow all instructions provided by facilitators and staff during retreats and events to ensure the safety and well-being of all participants.

3. Health and Safety

• You confirm that you are in suitable physical and mental health to participate in the retreat or event. Any pre-existing medical or psychological conditions must be disclosed during registration.

• Participation in retreats and ceremonies with Inekawa requires completing a health screening form to ensure safety. If you are taking any medications, have any medical conditions, or are pregnant, you must inform us before attending.

• Inekawa Foundation reserves the right to refuse participation to anyone deemed physically or mentally unfit for the retreat experience, including for reasons of safety or compatibility with the event’s goals.

• You are responsible for bringing any necessary medications and managing your own health needs during the retreat.

4. Behavior and Conduct

• Respectful, mindful behavior is expected from all participants. Aggressive, disruptive, or inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated and may result in removal from the event without a refund.

• You agree to respect the privacy, boundaries, and safety of other participants.

• Inekawa Foundation reserves the right to dismiss anyone who does not follow the guidelines or behaves in a manner detrimental to the experience of others.

5. Payment and Cancellation Policy

• Full payment or a 50% deposit for retreats and events is required upon registration. Your spot is not secured until payment is received.

• All remaining balances are due no later than 2 weeks (14 days) prior to the retreat start date. If full payment is not received by this deadline, your spot may be released and your deposit forfeited.

• Cancellation Policy:

• No refunds or discounts will be provided for late arrivals, early departures, flight cancellations, travel delays, or illness. If you cancel your participation in a retreat for any reason, the cancellation policy below will apply without exception. While we understand that unforeseen circumstances, such as injury or family emergencies, may arise, we incur costs when reserving retreat spaces, which prevents us from offering refunds. We’ve designed our cancellation policy to be as compassionate as possible in case your plans change.

• If You Cancel the Retreat:

  • 14 days or more prior to the retreat start date: 100% of your payment will be credited toward a future retreat scheduled within 12 months. If not rescheduled within this time frame, the credit will be forfeited.

  • 8-13 days prior to the retreat start date: 50% of your payment will be credited toward a future retreat scheduled within 12 months. The remaining 50% will be forfeited.

  • 7 days or less prior to the retreat start date, or failure to attend without notice: No credits or rescheduling will be provided. 100% of your payment will be forfeited.

• If We Cancel the Retreat:

• If Inekawa Foundation cancels the retreat, you will receive a full refund of the amount paid. However, any other investments (e.g., transportation costs) remain your responsibility.

• In the unlikely event that we must cancel a retreat due to a force majeure event beyond Inekawa’s control (such as inclement weather, natural disasters, political upheaval, etc.), refunds or credits may be issued at Inekawa Foundation’s discretion based on the circumstances of the cancellation and the financial commitments already incurred. We reserve the right to apply your paid funds to a future retreat at our discretion.

• To cancel, you must email us at info@Inekawa.org and call (321)481-8288 to confirm the cancellation.***

6. Assumption of Risk

• You acknowledge that participating in Inekawa Foundation events involves inherent risks, including but not limited to physical, emotional, psychological, or spiritual effects.

• You voluntarily assume all risks associated with your participation and release Inekawa Foundation, its facilitators, staff, and affiliated entities from any liability, claims, or demands arising out of or related to your participation.

• You are responsible for your own well-being throughout the retreat and agree to follow all safety guidelines provided by Inekawa Foundation.

7. Confidentiality and Privacy

• Inekawa Foundation respects your privacy. Personal information collected during registration or participation will be kept confidential and used only for the purposes of event organization, safety, and communication.

• Participants are expected to respect the confidentiality and privacy of others, including any personal information or experiences shared during the retreat or event.

9. Force Majeure

Inekawa Foundation is not responsible for any cancellations or disruptions caused by events outside of its control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of God, government actions, or unforeseen emergencies. In such cases, refunds or rescheduling will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
