Broward County Bar Association Yoga for Lawyers Series
Liability Waiver and Service Agreement
By signing below, I acknowledge that I have read, agree, and attest to the following:
1. I am participating in classes or services during which I will receive information and instruction about yoga, fitness, and health. I am aware that participating in any physical exercise, sports activity, fitness program, or movement, can be dangerous and may cause physical injury. I acknowledge that I am participating in these activities willfully and assume all risks and dangers of injury from my actions or the actions of others.
2. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to and regarding my participation in any physical fitness program, including yoga. I have been examined by a physician within the past year and have been found to be in good physical health and fully capable of performing all yoga and fitness exercises that may be taught during classes or services. If I have not been examined within one year, then I have decided to participate in all activities at my own risk, assuming all responsibilities for my participation. I represent and warrant that I have no medical condition that would prevent my participation in physical fitness activities.
3. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga, fitness, and any other classes, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries, or damages, known and unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating. I accept all risks as stated herein, and knowingly, freely, voluntarily, and expressly agree that Arielle Levinson, A/K/A Arielle Capuano, A/K/A Arielle Levinson Capuano, A/K/A Yogi Arielle, Castlemade, LLC, Molly Weintraub, Emily Tambaschi, Cariann Moore, Stephanie Miller, Brittany Berrard, and any teachers, agents, employees, volunteers, or independent contractors acting on their behalf, including, but not limited to, Broward County Bar Association and its employees and volunteers and the Young Lawyers Section of the Broward County Bar Association, (hereinafter collectively referred to as “the Teacher”) will not be liable for any and all liability, claims or causes of action or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever that may result or arise, by or in connection with my participation in any activities related to the classes or services offered. The scope of this document includes, without limitation any personal, bodily, or mental injury, economic loss or damage to me, my spouse, dependents, children or relatives resulting from any and all acts of negligence. I expressly waive any claim I may have against the Teacher for injuries or damages that may occur as a result of participating in classes or services held at the Broward County Bar Association, on the Beach in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, or at any other location. This release shall unequivocally release the Teacher from all claims injuries and damages, present or future, anticipated or unanticipated, resulting from or arising out of my use or intended participation.
4. All movements/postures/guidance, that are cued and/or demoed are only suggested, and not required for everyone to perform. I understand that I am responsible for my own health and safety, and I will listen to my body and do what feels good. If something does not feel good, I will stop the movement/posture or modify it to suit my body. I may choose to also just sit down, breathe, and rest.
5. I freely, voluntarily, and expressly grant permission to the Teacher to take and use photographs and/or videos taken of me during classes or lessons for editorial, educational, promotional, resale, and advertising purposes, or in furtherance of any business objectives of the Teacher.
6. I agree to receive all notices and communication related to classes and services contemplated herein at the email address I have provided.
7. I agree to follow all applicable laws, including, but not limited to, CDC guidelines and local orders. I understand that, due to the pending health emergency regarding COVID-19, that there is a risk involved in taking classes or receiving services in person. I understand that attending any in-person event could increase my risk and my family’s’ risk of contracting COVID-19. I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that my family and I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending any class or event associated with this agreement and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that I am proceeding at my own risk and I understand that this waiver modifies and limits my rights to pursue a claim against the Teacher. I will not attend an in-person class or other service if I have knowingly come into contact with someone infected with COVID-19 within the past 14 days, if I have a fever, or if I exhibit any other symptom of COVID-19.
8. I hereby certify that I am at least 18 years of age and have read the contents of this Liability Waiver and Service Agreement (Parent or Guardian signature is required for participants under 18 years of age). This Liability Waiver and Service Agreement shall remain in force and valid until revoked in writing by me. If revoked, I will be required to complete a new Liability Waiver and Service Agreement before being allowed to enroll in another class, service, or activity.
I have read the above Liability Waiver and Service Agreement and fully understand its contents. I voluntarily agree to the terms and conditions stated above.
