I understand that yoga includes physical movement as well as an opportunity for relaxation, stress reduction and relief of vascular tensions. As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling injury, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated . If I experience any pain or
discomfort, I will LET MY TEACHER KNOW and I will listen to my body. I understand that I may choose to discontinue any pose or activity at any time during the class or workshop or in my home practice.

I understand and accept that yoga is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment and that if I have had an injury or have had surgery or if I am pregnant I should get my doctor’s approval to participate in yoga classes before doing so. I also understand that the practice of Yoga not only involves physical effort but may also call upon my mental, emotional
and spiritual resources.

I understand that it is my responsibility to inform teacher (at the beginning of every class I take) if I have any health condition or injury/surgery information that may affect my ability to participate fully in class (those conditions mentioned on the first page of this document or any other conditions that you feel would adversely affect your ability to participate
in class).

I recognise and accept that it is solely my responsibility to ensure that:
 

• I will work at my own pace, will not strain and will rest when necessary.

• I will not engage in any activity that feels inappropriate.

• I am physically able to participate in Yoga classes and workshop.

• I will inform the teacher if I am pregnant or have any pre-existing condition.

• There is not medical reason to prevent my participation in the classes.

• I will accept all responsibility for my well being once in the class.

I have read and understand the above recommendations. I assume full responsibility during and after a yoga session to apply, at my own risk, any portion of the information or instruction that I receive. I hereby agree to release and waive any and all claims I may have against Bliss Yoga and it’s teachers.
