I hereby agree to the following:

That I am participating in the Yoga classes from Ahimsa Sanctuary during which I will receive information and instruction about yoga. I recognize that the above requires physical exertion, which may be strenuous and may cause physical injury, and I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved.

I understand that it is my responsibility to consult a physician prior to and regarding my participation in the yoga classes. I represent and warrant that I am physically fit and I have no medical condition, which would prevent my full participation in these yoga classes.

​

It is my responsibility to opt out from practices at any point, which I deem unfit or unsuitable during the practice. Therefore, in consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga sessions, 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 further consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga class I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against Ahimsa Sanctuary or the Teacher JoanMarie Cartier for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in these programs.

I understand that from time to time during classes, the Teacher may physically adjust students' form and posture. If I do not want such physical adjustments, I will so inform the instructor at each class I attend. I also acknowledge that if I do wish to receive such adjustments, it is my responsibility to inform the teacher when an adjustment has gone as far as I desire at that time.

I hereby take full and sole responsibility from any liability of loss or damage to personal property associated with yoga classes or any other events.

I, my heirs or legal representatives forever release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue Ahimsa Sanctuary or its employees for any injury caused by their negligence or other acts.

I have read the above release and waiver of liability and fully understand its contents.

Upon booking a class with Ahimsa Sanctuary I voluntarily agree to the terms and conditions stated above under my own free will.
