Hereinafter, REFERENCES TO YOU SHALL BE DEEMED TO REFER TO YOU AND YOUR MINOR CHILD/WARD AS APPLICABLE.

 

In consideration of being permitted to participate in the COMPANY’S programs and/or being permitted to enter for any purpose any portion of any Company programs and/or facilities, I, the undersigned, agree as follows:

 

1. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK.

I acknowledge that the programs, events, lessons, classes, workshops, competitions, and other activities conducted by Company (collectively, the “Activities”) involve known and unanticipated risks and can result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, permanent disability, death, and/or property damage. I understand such risks can be severe and cannot be eliminated despite the use of safety equipment and procedures without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the Activities. I expressly accept and assume all such risks and understand that I am responsible for any injuries or property damage caused to or by me while participating in Activities. Participating in Activities is purely voluntary, and I elect to do so despite the aforementioned risks. I understand that prior to participating in the Activities, I must inspect the facilities and equipment to be used and agree that if at any time I feel unsafe I will immediately take all precautions to avoid the unsafe area or condition, will discontinue participation in the Activities, and will notify Company of the unsafe area or condition.

 

2. MEDICAL CONDITION AND TREATMENT.

I certify that I am physically fit and I have no adverse physical condition that would prevent or inhibit my participation in any Activity. I have informed the Company of any conditions I have that may affect my ability to participate in the Activities and understand and agree that in permitting me to participate in the Activities, the Company has relied on my representation that I am in good health. If at any time I believe that I am unable to participate in the Activities due to physical or medical conditions, I will immediately discontinue participation and will notify the Company of such condition. If emergency medical treatment of me appears to be necessary during any Activity, I consent to such treatment by any local responders or caregivers, if available.

 

3. NON-SEXUAL INTENT.

Some of the PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES require close bodily contact that is not designed or intended to have a sexual nature, intent, or context.

 

 

4. WAIVER AND RELEASE.

I HEREBY WAIVE, RELEASE, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE COMPANY FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, OR CAUSES OF ACTION THAT ARE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO THE ACTIVITIES (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”), INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR MY DEATH, DISABILITY, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PROPERTY THEFT, OR ACTIONS OF ANY KIND WHICH MAY HEREINAFTER ACCRUE, NOTWITHSTANDING THE FACT THAT SUCH CLAIMS MAY BE THE RESULT OF COMPANY’S NEGLIGENCE. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY’S LIABILITY TO ME WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM THAT IS NOT THE RESULT OF THE COMPANY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY ME TO THE COMPANY WITHIN THE THIRTY (30) DAYS PRIOR TO THE DATE SUCH CLAIM ARISES.

 

6. INDEMNIFICATION BY STUDENTS AND/OR PARENTS.

I INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS COMPANY FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) OR CLAIMS MADE BY THIRD PARTIES DUE TO MY ACTIONS OR INACTIONS DURING ANY ACTIVITIES. FURTHER, IF THE MINOR ON BEHALF OF WHOM I EXECUTE THIS RELEASE OR ANY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS, RELATIVES, OR OTHER GUESTS MAKES A CLAIM AGAINST COMPANY, THE UNDERSIGNED WILL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS COMPANY FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) RELATED TO SUCH CLAIM. SHOULD COMPANY INCUR ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO ENFORCE THIS RELEASE, I SHALL REIMBURSE TO COMPANY ALL SUCH FEES AND COSTS.

I agree not to bring any claim or suit against the company, Instructors, staff, guests, Members, landlord, or any other parties on behalf of my child for any injury or harm sustained by any event short of a criminal act, and then only the criminal shall be the subject of such a claim.

I shall indemnify the school, Instructors, staff, guests, Members, and any and all additional defendants covered by this agreement for all judgments, costs, attorney fees and other expenses incurred as a result of any suit brought by or on behalf of my child or ward.

I further relinquish all claims to the use or ownership of such Media. I also Acknowledge that I have no right to use any Company’s curriculum, logo, name, documents, worksheets, or Media without the Company’s permission.

 

8. SEVERABILITY.

In the event that any provision of this Release shall be determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder shall not be impaired or otherwise affected and shall continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
