General Liability Release of Claims: We are delighted to have you as a yoga student. The following information will help you get the most out of your yoga classes and clarify our instructor/student relationship. We believe that Yoga is more than physical exercise. It is a transformative practice that integrates body, mind and emotional tensions to arrive at deeper levels of relaxation and awareness. All exercise programs involve a risk of injury. By choosing to participate in yoga classes, you voluntarily assume a certain risk of injury. Awareness is fundamental to the practice of Yoga. By attending this class, I affirm that I am solely responsible for my health and well-being, as well as my decision to practice yoga, a program of physical exercise. I understand that yoga is not recommended and is not safe under certain medical conditions. I do not have any physical conditions or disability that would limit my participation or preclude an exercise program, and have consulted with my medical care provider about any and all current conditions. Rishi Yoga, their agents, employees, successors and assigns, and corporations shall not be held liable for any injury, loss or damage to property and/or persons sustained during or as a result of participation in yoga and meditation classes. I agree to listen to my body and monitor myself during every class session. This Release has been carefully read and fully understood by the undersigned. The terms have been explained to me and I am freely, knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Release. *
