Liability Waiver

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

I understand that yoga includes physical movements. 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, 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 accessing the Online Yoga videos, I affirm that a licensed physician has verified my good health and physical condition to participate in such a fitness program, if required. 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 Sarah Samaan and Winding Road Yoga and all related facilities and premises for any personal injury or negligence.  

Those under 18 years of age must have their parent or guardian's permission to participate. 

If any portion of this release from liability shall be deemed by a Court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, then the remainder of this release from liability shall remain in full force and effect and the offending provision or provisions severed here from.
