By booking a yoga session with Dr Nikki, I agree to the following:
1. That I am participating in the session or movement programme offered by my instructor, during which I will receive information and instruction about yoga therapeutics, physical exercise or health. I recognise that exercise requires physical exertion, which may feel strenuous and may cause physical injury, and I am fully aware of the risks involved.
2. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult a physician regarding my participation in the yoga classes, health programs or workshops offered by my instructor. I represent and warrant that I have no medical condition which would prevent my participation in these yoga classes, health programmes or workshops.
3. If I am pregnant I understand that I participate fully at my own risk and that of my unborn child/children.
4. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga classes, health programmes or workshops, I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries or programmes offered by my instructor.
5. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the yoga classes, health programmes or workshops, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against my instructor for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in these programmes.
6. I understand that, during in-person yoga sessions, the instructor may physically adjust my form and posture. If I do not want such physical adjustments, I will so inform the instructor. 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.
7. 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.
Online & Virtual Classes:
1. By taking part in any class, you acknowledge that classes may feel strenuous, and you voluntarily participate in them with full knowledge of theoretical risk of personal injury.
2. You acknowledge that class schedules and frequency may change from time to time. Dr Nikki reserves the right to change the format and structure of the schedule as and when appropriate.
3. When practicing online, you accept full responsibility for your space and the health and safety precautions within this space. Please make sure you have a clear unobstructed space to practice.
4. You acknowledge that your instructor accepts no responsibility for any potential injuries because of practice outside of the online class space.

7. Whilst practicing online, you understand that - with your camera on – you are visible to the teacher and other attendees who are in the online space.
8. Only a qualified healthcare professional can diagnose a health condition. Whilst Dr Nikki is medically-trained, she will not be acting in her capacity as a doctor during the session.
I agree to take full responsibility for my health during the yoga classes, including any problem areas or injuries I have. I will inform my instructor of any medical changes.
I have read the above release and waiver of liability and fully understand its contents. By booking into any yoga class with Dr Nikki, or accessing online material, I voluntarily agree to the terms and conditions stated above under my own free will.
