General terms of Andrea Russell YOGA

In participating in these classes, you, the Participant, agrees and acknowledges that Yoga involves physical movements and activity and can be physically and mentally challenging, and therefore bears risk of injury, illness, and even disability and/or death.

Participant accepts all risks of participating in Yoga and assumes full responsibility for any and all injury, illness, and/or damages caused by their participation in Yoga. During Yoga, if Participant experiences any pain or significant discomfort, they agree to listen to and honor their body, discontinue the activity, and seek medical attention from a licensed physician.

Participant understands and agrees that their participation in Yoga, in each class and in each pose, is voluntary, in their sole discretion, and at their own risk. Participant warrants that they understand their physical limitations and that they are sufficiently self-aware to stop or modify a pose or recommendation before they become injured or ill or aggravate a pre-existing condition. Participant understands that Instructor is not a licensed physician, nor a medical professional of any kind, and therefore will not and cannot give them medical advice. Participant agrees that Instructor has no duty to provide them with medical advice or care (including CPR) during Yoga. Participant also understands that nothing said by Instructor should be construed as medical advice.

This waiver and release shall apply to all classes, lessons, workshops, and recommendations Participant takes from Instructor, and all instruction Participant receives from Instructor, no matter where performed or given, and no matter what style or branch of Yoga practice is taught. Participant therefore agrees to release, forever discharge, and hold harmless Instructor and their employees, agents, teachers, independent contractors, and other representatives, and their heirs, successors, and assigns (“Released Parties”), from liability for any and all Claims relating to or caused by Participant’s participation in Yoga (“Claims”). The term “Claims” shall include any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions, damages, rights of action, and causes of action, of whatever kind or nature, that may now or hereafter exist or arise, arising out of personal injuries, losses suffered, and damages of any kind (including but not limited to direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, or any other damages), including those known and unknown, developed or undeveloped, and foreseen or unforeseen, relating to or caused by my participation in Yoga. Participant agrees that this waiver and release shall be legally binding upon them personally and their family, estate, heirs, successors, and assigns.
