Indie Artist School Results Vocal Coaching & Mentorship Agreement
Purpose of the Agreement: The purpose of this Agreement is to develop a coaching relationship between the Parties to cultivate the Client’s vocal goals and create a plan to carry out those goals through stimulating and creative interactions with the ultimate result of maximizing the Client’s personal and/or professional vocal potential (“Coaching Services”).
1. Coach-Client Relationship – Duties & Responsibilities. A vocal coaching relationship is a partnership between two or more individuals or entities. This relationship is not a legal partnership, instead more like a teacher-student or coach-athlete relationship. Each Party must uphold its obligations for the coaching relationship to be successful.
1.1. The Coach agrees to maintain the ethics and standards of behavior established by the International Coach Federation (IFC), an internationally recognized standard for coaching.
1.2. The Client agrees to communicate honestly, be open to feedback and suggestions, and fully engage and devote oneself to the coaching process.
1.3. The Client acknowledges and agrees that vocal coaching & mentorship is a comprehensive process that may explore different areas of the Client's life, including mindset, health, and daily habits to ensure the best results for vocal transformation. Still, it is ultimately the Client’s decision to incorporate coaching into each aspect of life.
1.4. The Client is solely responsible for implementing the techniques discovered through coaching.
2. Coaching & Mentorship Structure. Kristal Cherelle will lead you in 1:1 (1hr, weekly) vocal coaching sessions on live zoom video for a total of 24 sessions (except for sessions that the student has canceled outside of the terms for makeup sessions). Mentorship check-ins from Kristal Cherelle will be conducted every week via email. You may email [email protected] for 24-7 mentorship.
3. Confidentiality. This coaching relationship and all information (physical or verbal) that the Client shares with the Coach as part of this relationship are bound by the principles of confidentiality outlined in the ICF Code of Ethics. Therefore, the Coach agrees not to disclose any information pertaining to the Client without the Client’s consent. With exception of recorded vocal footage of Indie Artist School sessions (used to highlight vocal transformation). BE ADVISED: the Coach-Client relationship is not protected by legal confidentiality (like doctor-patient or attorney-client). As such, the Coach could be required to divulge otherwise confidential information to authorities.
4. Cancelling of Services (Applicable for school subscription monthly plans only--not applicable for full payment or Affirm/Klarna programs). If the client cancels their recurring monthly session payment subscription voluntarily or due to failed payments—all subsequent sessions are forfeited. Suppose client has outstanding makeup sessions for the month that were pre-paid at the time of cancelation. In that case, those sessions will serve as school credits to be applied as an extra session(s) when client re-enrolls or the monetary value of the outstanding sessions can be applied toward the payment of other Indie Artist School products such as online courses etc.
5. Session Cancellation & Makeup Policy. The Client agrees to notify (Kristal Cherelle) Indie Artist School Results Vocal Coach 24 hours before any scheduled session that Client can't attend. If the client informs later than 24hrs, Indie Artist School reserves the right to charge the Client for the scheduled session as a missed/canceled session rather than allow it to roll over as a makeup.
Major Holidays and school closures automatically result in rollover makeup sessions.
