Yoga Waiver Form

I am in agreement to the following Terms and Conditions:

​

I am participating in yoga classes, health programs, workshops and/or other wellness, body work, therapy, exercise and healing arts activities (collectively, the “Activities”) offered by bZengi and all associates and instructors operating through bZengi.  The Activities may be offered in the physical location of the Studio or offered online by videos, television, podcasts, apps or other digital media or platforms.  All of such offerings, either physical or online, shall be considered “Activities”.

 

I recognize that I must be in adequate and mental health to participate in the Activites.  I understand that the Activities may require intense physical exertion, and I represent and warrant that I am physically fit enough to participate, and I have no medical condition which would prevent my full participation in the Activities.  I recognize that the Activities may cause or aggravate a physical injury or medical condition.  I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician before my participation in the Activities.  If I have done so, I have taken the physician’s advice.  I understand that the Teacher reserves the right to refuse my participation in any Activity on medical, fitness or any other grounds.

 

I am aware that my participation in the Activities could result in high blood pressure, fainting, heartbeat disorders, physical injury, heart attack or stroke and may aggravate pre-existing injuries. I understand that I could experience muscle, back, neck and other injuries as a result of my participation in the Activities. I understand my physical limitations and I am sufficiently self-aware to stop or modify my participation in any Activity before I become injured or aggravate a pre-existing injury.

 

I am fully aware that I must breathe throughout my practice and recognize I must listen to my own body and adjust my movements and breathe according to my limitations at every moment and including all instances of motion.  As this is a physical activity, I understand the risk of injury, ranging from minor to disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated.  I will progress at my own pace, resting at all times necessary.  Should I experience any discomfort, pain, stiffness, or doubt of the poses, I will listen to my body, adjust the posture and ask for support from the yoga teacher (the “Teacher”).  

 

In consideration of being permitted to participate in the Activities, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating in the Activities, including those which may result from the negligence of the Teacher.

 

In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the Activities, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any “Claim” (as defined below) I may have against the Teacher and any of Teacher’s employees, independent contractors or assistants (each, a “Released Party”) that I may sustain as a result of participating in the Activities even if the Claim arises from the negligence of Released Party or anyone else.

 

I agree to indemnify and hold harmless Released Party from any loss, cost, or liability incurred in defending any Claim made by me or anyone making a Claim on my behalf, even if the Claim is alleged to or did result from the negligence of Released Party or anyone else.

​

“Claim” includes but is not limited to any and all liabilities, claims, demands, expenses, fees, legal actions, rights of actions for damages, personal injury, mental suffering and distress, or death that I may suffer, my spouse, children or unborn child may suffer (including any legal fees or expenses) in connection with participation in any Activity.

 

I, my heirs or legal representatives forever release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue any Released Party for any Claim caused by any negligence or other acts of any Released Party.

 

I hereby understand that the Teacher from time to time may photograph, video, or otherwise record Activities and place such photographs and videos on its Website or social media platform. I hereby consent to the use of my image that may appear in any such photograph or video.

 

This agreement shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to themaximum extent permissible under applicable law. In case any provision of this agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall not affect any other provision of this agreement and this agreement shall be construed as if such provision had never been contained herein.
