By signing up for any offerings listed under the Teachable School for Karen Korona Yoga, Meditation, & Healing, I understand and hereby agree to the following:

1. I am voluntarily participating in Karen Korona’s Teachable School which may include yoga classes, health programs, workshops and/or other wellness, body work, therapy, exercise, and healing arts.  

2. I recognize that I must be in adequate physical and mental health to participate in the programs. I understand that the programs may require intense physical exertion, and I represent and warrant that I am physically fit enough to participate, and I have no medical condition which would prevent my full participation in the programs. I recognize that the movements and exercises in the program may cause or aggravate a physical injury or medical condition.  I understand that it is my responsibility to seek advice from my physician and follow his/her recommendations before my participation in the programs. I understand that the School reserves the right to refuse my participation in any program on medical, fitness or any other grounds.

3. I acknowledge that participation in yoga techniques and movements exposes me to a possible risk of personal injury. I take full responsibility for my participation in the program, and I understand I can stop or modify postures and movements according to my own fitness level and health condition before I become injured or aggravate a pre-existing condition.

4. 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 at the School, including those which may result from the negligence of the School.

5. In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the programs, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any “Claim” (as defined below) I may have against the School, its owners, managers, teachers, instructors, workshop presenters, independent contractors and staff (each, a “Released Party”) that I may sustain as a result of participating in the programs at the School even if the Claim arises from the negligence of any Released Party or anyone else.

I agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Released Party from any loss, cost, or liability incurred in defending any Claim made by me or anyone making a Claim on my behalf, even if the Claim is alleged to or did result from the negligence of any Released Party or anyone else.

“Claim” includes but is not limited to any and all liabilities, claims, demands, expenses, fees, legal actions, rights of actions for damages, personal injury, mental suffering and distress, or death that I may suffer, my spouse, children or unborn child may suffer (including any legal fees or expenses) in connection with participation in any program.

6. I, my heirs, or legal representatives forever release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue any Released Party for any Claim caused by any negligence or other acts of a Released Party.

7. This agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Colorado and that all actions, suits, claims and proceedings relating to this agreement shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Colorado.

In case any provision of this agreement shall be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it shall not affect any other provision of this agreement and this agreement shall be construed as if such provision had never been contained herein.

I acknowledge that I have carefully read this agreement and fully understand its contents. I voluntarily and knowingly agree to the terms and conditions stated herein. I am aware that by continuing with any programs lead by Karen Korona Yoga, Meditation & Healing, I am giving up substantial rights, including my right to sue and certain legal rights my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, and assigns may have against any Released Party.
