  **Important Notes**

  * Cancelled sessions automatically move to the Past Sessions tab
  * If the session was linked to a Google Calendar event, the event will be deleted
  * If the session was a Zoom meeting, the meeting will be cancelled
  * The client will receive a notification about the cancellation
</Info>

## After Cancelling

After cancelling a session, consider these follow-up actions:

* Reach out to the client directly to explain the cancellation if needed
* Offer to reschedule the session by creating a new session
* Ensure the client knows how many sessions remain in their package

Maintaining clear communication around cancellations helps preserve the client relationship and keeps your training business running smoothly.
