1. I understand the risks. Yoga and breathwork involve physical movement and can produce intense physical, mental, and emotional experiences. There is a risk of injury — physical, mental, psychological, or emotional — no matter how much guidance or supervision is provided. I am participating voluntarily, and I knowingly assume all risks, known and unknown, even if they arise from the negligence of the Releasees.

2. I release the Releasees from liability. On behalf of myself, my spouse, children, heirs, and estate, I release, discharge, and agree not to sue the Releasees for any injury, loss, or damage to person or property connected with the Activities, including claims based on the Releasees' negligence, to the fullest extent permitted by law. If I (or anyone on my behalf) bring a claim covered by this release, I agree to pay the Releasees' resulting costs, including reasonable legal fees, and the amount of any judgment entered against them.

3. Online & remote sessions. For virtual sessions, I am responsible for creating a safe physical environment for my own practice. I will participate from a space free of obstructions and hazards, and I understand that the Releasees cannot see or monitor my surroundings and cannot provide immediate emergency medical help in a remote setting.

4. This is not medical care. The Releasees are not physicians, psychologists, or healthcare providers. The Activities are for wellness and self-exploration only — they do not diagnose or treat any illness, disease, or disorder, and they are not a substitute for professional medical or psychological care.

5. I am healthy enough to participate. I certify that I am in good health and that I do not have any of the following without written clearance from my doctor: cardiovascular disease (including angina or prior heart attack), high blood pressure, seizures or epilepsy, aneurysm, glaucoma or retinal detachment, osteoporosis, recent significant injury or surgery, or a severe mental health condition (including schizophrenia or bipolar disorder). If I have asthma, I will have my inhaler with me and tell the facilitator before the session. The Releasees are relying on this certification in allowing me to participate.

6. Pregnancy. If I am pregnant or post-natal, I will not participate without my doctor's approval, and I will not hold the Releasees responsible for pregnancy-related injuries resulting from my failure to follow medical advice.

7. Personal belongings. The Releasees are not responsible for property that is lost, stolen, or damaged during the Activities.

8. This agreement continues. This agreement covers the session I am booking and all future Activities I participate in with the Releasees, in person or online, without needing a new signature each time.

9. Legal terms. Any claim against the Releasees will be resolved exclusively by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Rules. This agreement is governed by Indiana law, regardless of my location or where the Activities take place, and any court proceeding not subject to arbitration will be brought only in Indiana. If any part of this agreement is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. This is the entire agreement between us; I have had the chance to ask questions or consult an attorney before signing.

 

I have read this agreement, I understand it, and I agree to it freely and voluntarily, knowing I am giving up legal rights, including the right to sue. By checking the waiver box at checkout, I acknowledge and agree to this Release of Liability & Assumption of Risk, and I intend that action to have the same legal effect as my handwritten signature.
