Terms of Service

I understand that yoga includes physical activity and, as with all physical activity, there is the risk of injury of varying types and degrees, which risk cannot be entirely eliminated. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I agree that I will discontinue the activity, and ask for support from the instructor. I assume full responsibility for any and all damages which may be incurred as a result of my participation in the yoga activities.

I understand that yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis or treatment, nor is yoga recommended or safe under certain medical conditions. By agreeing, I affirm that a licensed physician has verified the status of my health and physical condition as sufficient to allow me to participate in the physical activity required by the yoga program. I agree that I will make the instructor aware of any medical conditions or physical limitations before class. 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 my participation is at my own risk. I agree to irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter against Courtney Avery, Courtney Avery’s Movement & Health Studies, LLC and its instructors.

The yoga activities I engage in may be provided to me online or by similar electronic, video, or digital means. I understand, acknowledge and accept that this type of activity may have disruptions in service, may be impacted by the nature and quality of the transmission, may not afford me the ability to see, perceive, or comprehend certain visual, audio, or physical cues, instructions, conditions, or other elements of the services provided by Courtney Avery or Courtney Avery’s Movement & Health Studies, LLC and/or may not provide you an opportunity or ability to perceive and/or render assistance in the event of an emergency or other situation that requires prompt or immediate attention. I understand that I have assumed the risk of such a situation and I will take steps to avoid or deal with such situations at my location, as well as providing to Courtney Avery or Courtney Avery’s Movement & Health Studies, LLC such information I have regarding any condition that exists or I believe may arise during these yoga activities. 

I also understand that, during the course of the yoga activities, you may receive in some form information about me that would be considered as confidential or protected, including but not limited to medical, financial and personal information. This would include any such information that may be communicated during or pursuant to yoga activities I engage in online or by similar electronic, video, or digital means.  I acknowledge that I have responsibility to protect and prevent the disclosure of any such information.
