Health & Safety Waiver
By booking a class with PilatesOx, you confirm that you have read and understood this Health & Safety Waiver and agree fully with its contents. This document should be read in conjunction with the Terms and Conditions.
I agree with the following:
1. I have signed this waiver voluntarily.
2. That I am participating in pilates classes at PilatesOx during which I will receive information and instruction about pilates, physical exercise or health. I recognise that pilates requires physical exertion, that this may be strenuous and may cause physical injury and/or illness, and I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved.
3. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult my doctor or other relevant medical professional prior to and regarding my participation in the pilates classes or workshops.
4. By attending a pilates class or workshop I am confirming that I have no medical condition or health problem, which would prevent my participation (including but not limited to, cardiac irregularities, dizziness, asthma/breathing difficulties, diabetes, epilepsy, allergies, any injuries to my muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints). It is my responsibility to ensure that I am fit and well enough to participate in any class or workshop which I book.
5. If I am pregnant, I understand that I participate fully at my own risk and that of my unborn child/children.
6. I understand that it is my full responsibility to inform the teacher, at the beginning of each class, if:
• I have any health concerns or medical conditions,
• I am taking any medication which may affect my ability to participate in the class/workshop,
• I am pregnant.
I understand that the teacher has the right to request that I do not take part in the class because of this disclosure and that I will not receive a refund.
7. If I begin to feel unwell during a class/workshop/course, it is my responsibility to cease any activity and to inform the teacher immediately.
8. Advice provided by any of the teachers at PilatesOx at no time constitutes medical advice and is not a substitute for advice provided by a medical professional.
9. I will not use any pilates equipment during the class which I do not know how to use or until I have received full instructions and guidance from the teacher, on how to use the equipment safely. If I am unsure of how to use a piece of equipment, it is my responsibility to inform the teacher of this, prior to using it.
10. I will follow the instructions of the teacher at all times.
11. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the pilates classes at PilatesOx, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks or injuries which occur during the class/workshop/course.
12. In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the pilates classes, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against PilatesOx or any individual teachers, for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in the pilates classes.
13. I understand that from time to time during a session, the teacher may physically adjust students’ form and posture. If I do not want such physical adjustments, I will inform the teacher. I also acknowledge that if I do wish to receive such adjustments, it is my responsibility to inform the teacher when an adjustment has gone as far as I desire at that time.
14. I understand that I must not attend PilatesOx classes under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs and that my entry may be refused, and I will not receive a refund for missed classes, workshops or courses as a result of being under the influence.
