I understand that yoga includes physical movements as well as an opportunity for strength building, 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, adjust the posture and ask for support from the teacher. I will continue to breathe smoothly. 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. In consideration of my participation in the activities and programs offered or sponsored by Nora Maskey, I hereby for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators, or any others who may claim on my behalf, promise not to sue, and hereby waive, release and discharge Nora Maskey and anyone acting for or on her behalf, from any and all claims of liability for personal injury, illness, loss of life or property damage of any kind or nature, arising out of or sustained in the course of my participation in the activities and programs offered or sponsored by Nora Maskey. This Release and Waiver applies to all claims, foreseen or unforeseen, including negligence and breach of statutory or other duty of care. I agree that Nora Maskey is not responsible in the event of loss, damage, unauthorized use, theft, or injury resulting from and to any personal property that I bring on to the premises for any activities or programs offered or sponsored by Nora Maskey. I agree that this Agreement of Release and Waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by law. Any provision found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. I have read this document carefully and acknowledge that I have complete knowledge and understanding of its contents. I recognize that by submitting this document I am waiving certain legal rights, including the right to sue. I am submitting this document voluntarily. *
