Dance studio job deny unpaid time off - stupid

so I have a part time job, hourly pay working as desk staff at a dance studio that has two locations. I am the manager and I work there four days a week, while the unpaid interns work there three days a week. there is a manager for the other location. when one of us is not in the office, the other is, and available to help the interns via cell if they have any questions.

I got an opportunity to travel in August for a course abroad and booked it immediately back in May because spots were limited and I didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity. I told my boss just this month (two months notice) that I’m asking for four (4) unpaid days off in August. I did not tell her for what.

ofc she tells me no, I can’t take these four days off, even when there are 4 interns who can cover me for these days (they do it all the time). I even offered to be available to work remotely, something she allows us to do when we’re not in the office. she says no, that she wants a manager to be available those days and the other manager is already traveling those days.

however, I already booked the trip and signed up for the course. I’m not not gonna go.

there’s no policy regarding unpaid day off requests, as the manual she gave us only refers to PTO. I’m conflicted. It’s a fucking dance studio.
