I had to reschedule our lesson because of a back injury I had and still am very unwell. Unable to walk properly and moving very little using a walking stick. I do not feel very comfortable disclosing such information in public, but your feedback has left me with no choice. The lesson was not confirmed and ‘confirmation of not having a lesson’ was sent to you at 8am on the day, which leaves nearly 4 hours prior to your lesson. Tried calling you several times with no response whatsoever. I wish you would have some understanding and compassion towards other people and would take certain unprecedented situations into consideration. I understand that you were upset about this, but it does not mean you can be mean to other people.
