I 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. These risks include: muscle or bone injury from not exercising properly, training too much, physical exertion, irregular heartbeat, unusual heart activity, unusual blood pressure, stomach upset, fainting, muscle cramps, muscle strains, muscle tears, muscle pain, joint pain, breathlessness, breathing difficulty, changes in heart rate, stroke, or death. If I experience any pain or discomfort, I will listen to my body, discontinue the activity, and ask for support from the instructor or my doctor right away. Falling can also cause bruises, broken bones, dislocations, and head injury. I assume full responsibility for any and all damages, which may incur through participation, or damages which may occur to a third party through my instruction. 

Yoga and exercise classes are not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis or treatment. Yoga and exercise are not recommended and are not safe under certain medical conditions. By signing, I affirm that a licensed physician has verified my good health and physical condition to participate in such a program. 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 exercise and participation is at my own risk. I hereby agree to irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter against Samantha Williams, Bold Coast Yoga, Mind, Body & Spirit with Sam, and/or their owners, officers, employees, and instructors. 

I have read and fully understand and agree to the above terms of this Agreement and Waiver of Liability, as well as the Terms and Conditions below. By purchasing this course I agree voluntarily and recognize that my purchase serves as complete and unconditional release of all liability to the greatest extent allowed by law in the State of Maine.
