Informed Consent and Waiver of Liability - Participation in Yoga classes includes, but is not limited to, participation in meditation techniques, yogic breathing techniques, and performing various Yoga postures. Yoga postures, or asanas, are designed to exercise every part of the body - stretching and toning the muscles and joints, the spine and the entire skeletal system. They also work on the internal organs, glands and nerves. Yoga incorporates sustained stretching to strengthen muscles and increase flexibility. Yoga and physical exercise is an individual experience. I understand that in Yoga, and in any other exercise class, I will progress at my own pace. If at any point I feel overexertion or fatigue, I will respect my own body's limitations and I will rest before continuing Yoga or any other exercise.

By checking the I agree box below, I further acknowledge that I shall not now, or at any time in the future, bring any legal action against Sherry Longbottom; and that this waiver is binding on me, my heirs, my spouse, my children, my legal representatives, my successors and my assigns.
