By participating in yoga classes, health programs, workshops, and other wellness, bodywork, therapy, exercise, and healing arts activities offered by Soleil Studio and/or its owners, managers, teachers, workshop presenters, employees, and independent contractors, you release them from all liability to the greatest extent allowed by law in the State of New Hampshire.
I HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THE FOLLOWING:
1. I am participating in yoga classes, health programs, workshops, and/or other wellness, bodywork, therapy, exercise, and healing arts activities (collectively, the "Activities") offered by Soleil Studio (the "Studio") and/or its owners, managers, teachers, workshop presenters, employees, and independent contractors.
2. I recognize that I must be in adequate physical and mental health to participate in the Activities. I understand that the Activities may require intense physical exertion, and I represent and warrant that I am physically fit enough to participate and that I have no medical condition that would prevent my full participation in the Activities. I recognize that the Activities may cause or aggravate a physical injury or medical condition. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician before participating in the Activities. If I have done so, I have taken the physician's advice. I understand that the Studio reserves the right to refuse my participation in any Activity based on medical, fitness or any other grounds.
3. I am aware that my participation in the Activities could result in high blood pressure, fainting, heartbeat disorders, physical injury, heart attack, or stroke and may aggravate pre-existing injuries. I understand that I could experience muscle, back, neck, and other injuries as a result of my participation in the Activities. I understand my physical limitations, and I am sufficiently self-aware to stop or modify my participation in any Activity before I become injured or aggravate a pre-existing injury.
4. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the activities, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries, or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating in the Activities at the Studio, including those which may result from the negligence of the Studio or any Released Party (as hereinafter defined).
5. In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the Activities, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any "Claim" (as defined below) I may have against the Studio, its owners, managers, teachers, instructors, workshop presenters, employees, independent contractors and staff (each, a "Released Party") that I may sustain as a result of participating in the Activities at the Studio even if the Claim arises from the negligence of any Released Party or anyone else. I agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Released Party from any loss, cost, or liability incurred in defending any Claim made by me or anyone making a Claim on my behalf, even if the Claim is alleged to or did result from the negligence of any Released Party or anyone else. "Claim" includes but is not limited to any and all liabilities, claims, demands, expenses, fees, legal actions, rights of actions for damages, personal injury, mental suffering, and distress, or death that I may suffer, my spouse, children or unborn child may suffer (including any legal fees or expenses) in connection with participation in any Activity.
6. I, my heirs, or legal representatives forever release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue any Released Party for any Claim caused by any negligence or other acts of a Released Party.
7. This agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New Hampshire. I acknowledge that I have carefully read this agreement and fully understand its contents. I voluntarily and knowingly agree to the terms and conditions stated herein. I am aware that by signing this agreement, I am giving up substantial rights, including my right to sue and certain legal rights my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, and assigns may have against any Released Party.
