Responsibility & Safety
1. Yoga. Yoga is physical exercise that integrates mind, body and spirit. Yoga is a way of encountering and releasing physical, mental and emotional tensions to arrive at deeper levels of relaxation and awareness.
2. Assumption of Risk. By choosing to participate in any class, workshop or clinic, you voluntarily, knowingly and expressly assume the risk of any injury. The following guidelines may help you to reduce that risk:
• Listen to and follow your instructor carefully
• Breathe smoothly and continuously as you move and stretch
• Do not hold your breath or strain to attain any posture
• Work gently, respecting your body’s abilities and limits
• Do not perform postures or movements that are painful
• Ask your instructor, if you are unsure how to perform any movement
3. Health Concerns. Consult your physician before embarking on any exercise program. Inform your instructor of any health condition(s) that may be affected by your practice of yoga. You represent and warrant that you are physically fit, and have no medical condition that would prevent your full participation in any yoga class.
4. Safety and Well-being. It is your responsibility to monitor each activity to determine whether it is appropriate for you to participate. Although your instructor will guide you, you remain solely responsible for your safety and well-being. You are your best teacher.
5. Practicing in the comfort of your own home, you are responsible for your environment around you. Ensure that your practice space is clear to reduce risk of injury.
