Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention and it is not intended to examine, diagnose or treat any condition. Yoga is not recommended and is not safe for those with certain medical conditions. I acknowledge and affirm that I am competent to decide whether or not to participate in group or private classes and I will make an informed choice before doing so. I hereby agree to the following:
1. I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved in practicing yoga at Modo Yoga Scarborough.
2. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to and regarding my participation in group or private yoga classes, workshops, and retreats offered by Modo Yoga Scarborough.
3. I represent and warrant that I am physically fit and I have no medical condition(s) that would prevent my full participation in group or private yoga classes, workshops, and retreats.
4. In consideration for being permitted to participate in group or private yoga classes, workshops, or retreats, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of my participation. In further consideration, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against Modo Yoga Scarborough, its owners, instructors and representatives, for any injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of my participation.
5. I agree that this agreement shall be governed by the laws of Ontario and if any conflict arises between me and Modo Yoga Scarborough, I will attempt mediation before submitting my dispute to binding arbitration.
