I _________________________________(print name) understand that yoga
includes physical movements as well as an opportunity for
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. I hereby agree to
irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or
hereafter may have against (name of instructor, studio and/or
center).
