Studio NOW Terms & Conditions
Effective Date: October 1, 2026
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern the Studio NOW pass ("Studio NOW" or the "Pass") offered by Teaching Studio, LLC ("The Teaching Studio," "we," "us" or "our"), located at 3211 Shannon Road Suite 125, Durham, NC 27707. By purchasing a Pass you ("you" or the "Pass Holder") agree to these Terms.
1. What Studio NOW Is
Studio NOW is a month-to-month pass that lets you reserve open, non-booked studio time at The Teaching Studio through our online booking system. Each reservation is a two-hour session. A Pass includes up to ten sessions per calendar month. Sessions include use of the studio stage and its production zones, six live-switched cameras, stage lighting, broadcast audio, graphics and slide integration, a studio technician in the control room, and delivery of your recordings. A maximum of ten Passes are sold at any one time.
2. Availability and Booking
Sessions may be booked only in time that is open in the online booking system, within the booking window shown there (currently the next seven days). Open time changes as other clients reserve the studio, and a specific day or time is never guaranteed. Each calendar month we guarantee that at least 50% of our studio operating hours will be available to Studio NOW Pass Holders as a group. Sessions do not carry over from one month to the next, and unused sessions have no cash value.
3. Payment and Billing
The monthly price of the Pass is shown on this page at the time of purchase (currently $1,750 per month). Your first month is charged in full immediately at the time of purchase, before that month begins. Each month after that is billed at the end of the current month for the following month, to the card on file, until you cancel. By purchasing a Pass you authorize The Teaching Studio and its payment processor, Authorize.net, to charge the card you provide on this recurring basis. Card details are collected and stored by Authorize.net and are never stored on our servers. If a recurring payment fails, we will contact you; booking access is suspended until payment is made.
4. Cancellation
There is no contract and no minimum term. You may cancel at any time by emailing info@theteachingstudio.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the month you have already paid for: you keep booking access through the last day of that month and are not charged for the following month. Payments are not pro-rated and are not refunded for partial months, unused sessions, or cancellations made after a month has been billed, except where required by law.
5. Session Rules and Cancellations
Sessions are for recording. Live streaming and live event production are not included in the Pass and may be purchased separately as an upgrade. Please cancel a booked session through the booking system at least 24 hours in advance so the time can be released to other Pass Holders; sessions cancelled with less notice, or missed, count toward your monthly ten. We may reschedule a session because of facility or equipment issues, in which case the session is not counted against you.
6. Guests
In-person guests are not permitted during Studio NOW sessions. Up to two remote guests may join a session from the Podcast Desk and will appear in the broadcast with you. You are responsible for obtaining any consent you need from your guests to record them.
7. Your Content
Content recorded during your sessions belongs to you. The Teaching Studio claims no rights in it unless we agree otherwise in writing. You are responsible for the content you record, including having the rights to any music, slides, images and other material you bring into the studio. Recordings are delivered at the end of each session; we do not keep long-term copies, so please back up your files.
8. Studio Conduct and Damage
You agree to follow the directions of the studio technician and to treat the facility and equipment with care. Damage to studio equipment or facilities caused by you is your financial responsibility. We may end a session, or a Pass, for conduct that is unsafe, unlawful or abusive toward our staff, in which case no refund is owed.
9. Non-Transferable
A Pass is personal to the Pass Holder named at purchase and may not be transferred, shared, resold or used to book sessions for others.
10. Changes
We may change the price or these Terms with at least 30 days' notice by email. Changes apply from your next billing date; if you do not agree, cancel before that date and no further charge is made. Because Studio NOW is sold in limited numbers, we may stop offering it; if we do, any month already paid for is honored or refunded.
11. Liability Limitation
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Teaching Studio, LLC shall not be liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from the Pass, a session, or the facility, and our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for the month in question.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina. Any dispute shall be resolved in the courts of Durham County, North Carolina.
