I am seeking to participate in (the) Yoga Classes/ Workshops/ Retreats/ Events/Online Yoga Sessions/Activities offered by Happiness Yoga LLC (Happiness Yoga /Happiness Yoga Studio), during which I will receive information, instruction and practice of yoga and health.

 

I understand that Yoga includes physical exercise as well as opportunities for relaxation, stretching, stress reduction and relief of muscular tension. Yoga classes consist of a series of pranayama (breathing exercise) and postures (physical exercise) that bend, stretch and compress every part of the body. This practice stimulates glands, blood circulation, respiration and the nervous system. As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and can not be entirely eliminated. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I will listen to my body, discontinue the activity and ask for support from the instructor. I assume full responsibility of any and all damages, which may incur through participation. I understand that during the practice, instructors correct the postures for better alignment and for avoiding damages from the mistakes. I allow teachers or instructors to correct me whenever required.

 

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 understand it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to, and regarding my participation in, Yoga Classes. I represent and warrant that I am in good physical health and do not suffer from any medical condition, which would limit my participation in the classes and programs offered by Happiness Yoga. In addition, I will make the instructor aware of any medical conditions or physical limitations before every class. If I am pregnant, become pregnant or I am post-natal surgical, my signature verifies that I have my physician’s approval to participate.

 

I affirm that I alone am responsible to decide whether to practice yoga and understand that participation is at my own risk. My heirs, my legal representatives, or I hereby agree to forever irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter against Happiness Yoga and/or Happiness Yoga LLC, its staff, employees, teachers, members, instructors and lease holders.

 

I have read, fully understand and voluntarily agree to the above terms of this Liability Waiver Agreement. I am legally competent to sign, I acknowledge and recognise that my signature serves as a complete and unconditional release of liability to the greatest extent allowed by law in the State of Virginia, USA.

 

 

I further understand that from time to time, Happiness Yoga (Happiness Yoga LLC.), may produce and publish still photographs and/or video recordings for marketing purpose. I hereby authorise Happiness Yoga LLC. and its assigns to use and reproduce any photographs, personal narrative, interviews or audio and video recording of my participation for any and all purposes, without compensation.
