I TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING:

If at any time during the class, I feel discomfort or strain, I will gently come out of the posture. I may rest at any time during the class. It is important in yoga that I listen to my body and respect its limits on any given day.

I understand that yoga includes physical movements as well as an opportunity for relaxation, stress re-education and relief of muscular tension. As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I will listen to my body and discontinue the activity. I will continue to breathe smoothly. I assume full responsibility for any and all damages and/or injury, which may incur through participation.

I understand that Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis or treatment. Yoga is not recommended and is not safe under certain medical conditions. By signing, I affirm that a licensed physician has verified my good health and physical condition to participate in such a fitness program, if required. In addition, I will make the instructor aware of any medical conditions or physical limitations before class. If I am pregnant, become pregnant or I am post-natal or post-surgical, my signature verifies that I have my physician's approval to participate. I also affirm that I alone am responsible to decide whether to practice yoga and participation is at my own risk. I hereby agree to irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter against Yoga @ The Lounge and all related facilities and premises for any personal injury or negligence. Additionally, the facility, instructor and Yoga @ The Lounge are not in any way responsible for any loss or damage of my personal property.

I understand and agree that the terms of this waiver apply equally to Yoga classes whether that class is run in person or via video-conference or online via all social media streams or where pre-recorded videos are viewed and I assume full responsibility for any and all damages and/or injury, which may incur through participation.

I have carefully read and fully understand and agree to the above terms of this Acknowledgement of Risks & Waiver Agreement.   Those under 18 years of age must have this form signed by a parent or guardian.
