Health and Wellbeing – Yoga is a safe & effective form of exercise; and I do my best to ensure your well being. However, it is required that you take full responsibility for your own practice in class. It is your responsibility to discuss any health concerns/conditions with a health care professional and to make me (the teacher) aware of any medical conditions, injuries, complications or physical limitations before class. You must agree to honour your body by adjusting the practice according to your own capabilities and needs to ensure that no personal injury occurs. Should injury occur during class, I cannot be held accountable.
I will not share your personal details with third parties without your consent.
Online Classes
When practicing in online classes, please adapt in ways suitable for you, take breaks as you need, practice in a safe space. Should you feel unwell or feel pain, stop immediately and seek advice from a medical professional. If in doubt about a pose or sequence, skip those poses/sequences. Make sure you are suitably warmed up before each session. I recommend refraining from eating 2 hours before the session and making sure you are hydrated 2 hours before the session commences.
You are participating in my online classes at your own risk, with everything you do, being entirely carried out as your choice. I do not accept any liability for any injury or damage arising from the use of this website.
