Marquee Dance Center, a division of EXPAT PRODUCTIONS LLC (“Marquee”) – Liability Waiver & Consent Form
I am aware and fully understand that there are risks and dangers associated with participation in dance classes and the various movements involved in different dance disciplines. These movements and activities could result in bodily injury, partial or total disability, or death. The social and economic losses or damages which could result from these risks and dangers could be severe. I acknowledge that it is standard teaching protocol that students may be physically touched by a Marquee instructor during instruction, and I will not hold Marquee liable for such physical touching. I understand that these risks and dangers may be caused by the negligence of the participant or the negligence of others. There may be risks not known to us or not foreseeable at this time.
I accept and assume all such risks and responsibilities for the losses and/or damages following such injury and/or disability, however caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of Marquee, its instructors, independent contractors, hosts, other participants/students, sponsors, advertisers, owners, officers, and lessees of the premises used to conduct the event or activity, and each of them, their officers, directors, agents, and employees. I agree that this consent and assumption of risk statement covers each and every event or activity sponsored by Marquee.
Consent for Emergency Treatment
In cases of emergency, Marquee is authorized to arrange for medical services for my child. I consent to appropriate medical and surgical services recommended by licensed medical professionals. I accept full responsibility for all costs of said medical care and any emergency treatments. Marquee will not be responsible for the cost of any medical care or emergency treatments. I hereby waive all claims whatsoever in connection with such medical treatments. I agree to hold Marquee harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, damages, or expenses related to the student’s participation in any activities at Marquee.
Release & Authorization for Use of Photographs & Video
I agree that my child may be photographed or filmed by or on behalf of Marquee during participation in programs. Marquee shall have an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right to display, transmit, exhibit, distribute, publish, or otherwise use such photographs or videos for Marquee’s marketing purposes, including on its website, print ads, and social media. I acknowledge that I will have no right to payment or other consideration in connection with such use and that Marquee has no obligation to produce or use any such images.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Assumption of Risk and Waiver of Liability
COVID-19 is extremely contagious and may be transmitted through person-to-person contact or contaminated surfaces. I acknowledge that Marquee has implemented preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, Marquee cannot guarantee that my child(ren) or I will not become infected with COVID-19 or any other communicable disease.
I voluntarily assume the risk that my child(ren) and I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending classes at Marquee, and that such exposure may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, or death. I agree to assume full responsibility for any injury, illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense of any kind that may occur. On my behalf and on behalf of my child(ren), I release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless Marquee, its employees, agents, and representatives from all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs, or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating to such exposure.
Final Acknowledgment
I have read this waiver and sign it voluntarily. I understand Marquee’s studio policies and agree to comply. I represent that my child is in sound health and has no medical or physical condition that would place them at risk in dance classes. I understand that dance instruction involves physical exercise and exertion, which may result in injury or disability.
