Pilates Hub Liability Waiver.

By signing this waiver, I acknowledge and understand that I have voluntarily chosen to participate in the classes and activities offered by Pilates Hub Inc. (referred to herein as the Pilates Hub) and assume all risks associated with my participation.

Physical Condition

I represent, warrant, and agree that I am in good physical condition and do not have any disability, impairment, or ailment that would prevent me from participating in active or passive exercises at Pilates Hub. This assurance encompasses, but is not limited to, the absence of cardiac irregularities, spinal, bone, joint, tendon, or ligament injuries, conditions like asthma, epilepsy, or any allergies that could impede my safe participation in any class.

I acknowledge that Pilates Hub has not provided medical claims or treatment suggestions, and it is my responsibility to consult a healthcare professional if any health concerns arise from engaging in exercise at the Pilates Hub.

Health and Safety Acknowledgment

I am advised to consult with a physician before starting any exercise program and to immediately stop exercising and seek medical attention if I experience any pain or discomfort during the program.

I acknowledge that Pilates Hub is not obligated to provide medical advice or treatment regarding my health and well-being during exercise sessions. It is my sole responsibility to ensure my own health and safety while participating in exercises at Pilates Hub. This responsibility includes seeking medical advice before engaging in strenuous activities, especially if I have concerns about my physical condition, such as low/high blood pressure or cardiac irregularities. I understand that I should not attend classes without consulting a doctor if there are any doubts about my health.

As a prenatal or postnatal client, I must obtain clearance from my physician before performing physical exercises. I am informed that I may train during pregnancy until the end of my 2nd trimester only.

I understand that the instructors at Pilates Hub reserve the right to deny access to their facilities if they believe that my participation could endanger my health.

Acknowledgment and Assumption of Risk

I acknowledge and agree that engaging in workouts at Pilates Hub involves participating in recreational sports activities. These activities can be strenuous and may include a variety of physical tasks such as stretching, lifting, using props and reformer machines, executing gymnastic movements, performing intense bodyweight exercises, and other demanding activities.

I am aware that I am not obligated to participate in any activity that I find uncomfortable and retain the right to opt out of participation at any point during the classes.

I am fully informed of the risks associated with all forms of physical exercise, including the potentially challenging nature of the training. I recognize and understand the risks and dangers of injury, both to myself and to my property, that could occur while using the studio's facilities. These risks include, but are not limited to, muscle strains and sprains, broken bones, torn ligaments, bruises, dizziness, fainting, and more serious injuries such as joint or back injuries. There is also the potential risk of injuries from using Pilates equipment and apparatus, such as reformers, mats, and other props, which may lead to slips, trips, falls, or equipment malfunctions. Additionally, I may experience physiological responses like rapid heartbeats, elevated blood pressure, sudden and unforeseen heart complications, and in rare instances, catastrophic events such as heart attacks or strokes. Although Pilates Hub strives to maintain a safe environment, these risks cannot be completely eliminated.

Waiver and Indemnification

I hereby release Pilates Hub, its staff, employers, and associated instructors from all liability for any loss, damage, injury, or expense that either I or my family members may incur due to my participation in classes, activities, and services at Pilates Hub. Fully aware of the risks involved, I choose to use the studio’s facilities and services, and I personally assume the risk, accepting personal responsibility for any harm, injury, or damage that may result from this use. I completely and irrevocably release, relinquish, acquit, and discharge Pilates Hub, including its owners, managers, employees, and agents, from any and all claims, demands, actions, or rights of action, whether known or unknown, arising from Pilates Hub's or its trainers' passive or active negligence.

Media Release and Consent

I understand that Pilates Hub, its employees, or contractors may occasionally film or photograph classes, activities, or services at Pilates Hub. I grant Pilates Hub and its licensees the right to use, publish, and distribute my footage, image, voice, and likeness for purposes such as publicity, merchandising, or editorial use globally in any media. I waive any rights to inspect, approve, or receive compensation for the use of such photographs, videos, or any derived content, regardless of future media developments or unknown uses.

Waiver Scope and Duration

This waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. If any portion of this waiver is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining portions shall continue to be valid, enforceable, and in full effect.

This waiver applies to all activities, classes, and services offered by Pilates Hub, which include but are not limited to Pilates reformer exercises, use of Pilates equipment and props, group and individual fitness classes, workshops, and any other physical or wellness activities conducted under the guidance of Pilates Hub instructors.

This waiver agreement becomes effective upon my signature and will remain in effect indefinitely unless I choose to revoke it. To terminate this agreement, I must provide a written revocation to Pilates Hub.

Final Acknowledgment

After thoroughly reading and understanding the release form and waiver of liability of Pilates Hub, I voluntarily agree to its terms. By signing, I confirm my comprehension of this Waiver of Liability and my intent to be legally bound by it. I affirm that no additional promises or inducements have been made beyond this agreement, and I am fully competent to agree to these terms. I am not relying on any outside statements or representations. In signing, I acknowledge that I am willingly giving up substantial legal rights, intending this to be a full and unconditional release of liability, as permitted by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
