YOGA TEACHER LIABILITY STUDENT WAIVER AGREEMENT

By reading this you understand and agree to the terms.

I  understand that yoga includes physical movements as well as an opportunity for relaxation, stress re­education and relief of muscular tension. Participation in yoga class includes, but is not limited to, participation in meditation techniques, yogic breathing techniques, and performing various yoga postures. Yoga postures, or asanas, are designed to exercise every part of the body―stretching and toning the muscles and joints, the spine and the entire skeletal system. They also work on the internal organs, glands and nerves. Yoga incorporates sustained stretching to strengthen muscles and increase flexibility. Yoga is an individual experience.

As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. My signature acknowledges I (if acting as an overseeing body for corporate yoga- have shared all the guidelines with all my employees and am officially responsible for the safety of my staff) understand that in yoga class I will progress at my own pace. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I will listen to my body, adjust the posture and ask for support from the yoga teacher (the “Teacher”). I will continue to breathe smoothly. If at any point I feel overexertion or fatigue, I will respect my body’s limitations and I will rest before continuing yoga practice.

Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis or treatment. Yoga is not recommended and is not safe under certain medical conditions. I affirm that I alone am responsible to decide whether to practice yoga.

By signing my name below, I acknowledge that participation in yoga classes and hosting of group classes exposes me/ or my team to a possible risk of personal injury. I am fully aware of this risk. I hereby consent to receive medical treatment that may be deemed advisable in the event of injury, accident and/or illness during any yoga class.

i acknowledge that I shall not now or at any time in the future bring any legal action against Teacher and/or My Joybody; and that these terms and reading of is binding on me, my heirs, my spouse, my children, my legal representatives, my successors and my assigns. My reading of these verifies that I am physically fit to participate in yoga classes and a licensed medical doctor has verified my physical condition for participation in this type of class.

If I am pregnant or become pregnant or am post­natal, my signature verifies that I am participating in yoga classes with my doctor’s full approval. I realize that I am participating in yoga classes at my own risk.

The Student Waiver Agreement shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law. I acknowledge that this Student Waiver- corporate body Agreement form will be used by the persons or entities being released in the yoga classes and that it will govern my actions and responsibilities in said classes.
