APYA YOGA (Monique Qureshi and Jay Taylor) DISCLAIMER/LIABILITY WAIVER
I hereby agree to the following:
That I am participating in the Yoga classes or any other exercise programs offered by Apya Yoga during which I will receive information and instruction about yoga, physical exercise or health. I recognise that exercise requires physical exertion, which may be strenuous and may cause physical injury, and I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved.
I understand that it is my responsibility to consult a physician prior to and regarding my participation in the yoga classes, health programs or workshops offered by Apya Yoga. I represent and warrant that I am physically fit and I have no medical condition, which would prevent my full participation in these yoga classes, health programs or workshops.
It is my responsibility to opt out from practices at any point, which I deem unfit or unsuitable during the practice. Therefore, in consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga sessions, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating in activities offered by Apya Yoga .
If I am pregnant I understand that I participate fully at my own risk and that of my unborn child/children.
In consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga classes, health programs or workshops, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating in the programs offered by Monique Qureshi and Jay Taylor.
In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga classes, or workshops, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against Monique Qureshi and Jay Taylor or the instructor for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in these programs.
I understand that from time to time during classes, the instructor may physically adjust students’ form and posture. If I do not want such physical adjustments, I will so inform the instructor at each class I attend. I also acknowledge that if I do wish to receive such adjustments, it is my responsibility to inform the instructor when an adjustment has gone as far as I desire at that time.
I hereby take full and sole responsibility from any liability of loss or damage to personal property associated with yoga classes or any other events.
This document also includes any qualified teacher we may from time to time invite to teach.
I, my heirs or legal representatives forever release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue Monique Qureshi and Jay Taylor for any injury caused by their negligence or other acts.

Amendments to courses or activities by Us
-
.Whilst every effort will be made to adhere to the planned itinerary for your activity, it must be realised that changes to the programme can occur from time to time due to factors outside of our control and we accept neither responsibility nor liability for any associated costs, should this occur. As a consequence, we may be forced to alter dates or venues before the activity starts and we will inform you of any such changes as soon as we know of them.
i.On assessing the conditions on the day and attendee abilities, we and our coaches may decide to alter any proposed plan or river/venue if it is believed that not doing so would put attendees at unnecessary risk.
ii.Some activities require specific river levels, particularly when running advanced courses. We endeavour to plan courses for the time of year that we would expect to get the appropriate amount of rainfall. For water dependant activities a final decision as to the viability of the activity will be made 2 days before the activity is due to start. If an activity is cancelled at this point then you will be offered an alternative venue or date. If the subsequent date is also cancelled then customers will be given the opportunity to wait for another alternative date or have a full refund.
