by booking a class with Yoga Kula, you confirm that you have read and understood our fitness, health and safety declaration/waiver
You acknowledge that sessions may be physically strenuous and you agree that you voluntarily participate in a session with full knowledge that even if the teacher and any other teacher involved in the session is not negligent there is an inherent risk of personal injury or illness arising from your participation in any exercise program and use of specialist equipment.
Certain activities may be unsuitable for you if you have special needs, or any medical, health or fitness problem or condition.
You must ensure that you are fit and well enough to participate in any session that you book, and you will at all times be responsible for your own state of health, physical condition and wellbeing.
If you have any concerns about your fitness or health, you should seek appropriate medical advice from your GP, physiotherapist or other relevant professional medical or other adviser and obtain their written consent where necessary before attending a session. Advice provided by any member of the Yoga Kula team involved in a session at no time constitutes medical advice and is not a substitute for advice provided by a medical professional.
You confirm that you have no health or fitness problems (including, but not limited to cardiac irregularities; spinal, bone, joint, tendon or ligament injuries; spells of dizziness; asthma or other breathing difficulty; diabetes; epilepsy or other allergy) which may affect your participation in any session.
We will inform you if we decide not to accept your booking because of that medical, health or fitness issue or special need.
You must not attend any session when under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs or immediately following a heavy meal.
You should arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the start time of a session. If you arrive later than a session start time and you arrive after any warm-up for that session has begun, we will not permit you to participate in the session for health and safety reasons.
You should not attempt to use any equipment or facilities until the teacher or another suitably qualified teacher has instructed you in the correct use of the same.
You may only use the equipment and facilities provided by us in the correct manner and must not use them in any manner which is a health and safety risk either to you or to others.
