In consideration of Youth Dance Alpha LLC (“Company”) allowing my minor child to participate in its dance classes, (hereinafter “Program”), I, for myself and/or on behalf of the minor child(ren) listed above (“Student(s)”), agree as follows:
Liability Waivers and Indemnification:
I affirm and acknowledge that Student(s) is participating in the Program for their own personal benefit. I understand that Student(s) will participate in dance and other related activities, including tumbling and acrobatics, as part of the Program and Private Lessons (defined below) and that such activities have inherent dangers and physical risks. I understand and acknowledge that the inherent dangers and physical risks involved in these activities are such that no amount of care, caution, instruction or expertise can completely eliminate them. These dangers and risks include, but are not limited to, loss of or damage to personal property, strains, sprains, bruises, and other personal injuries, or even death, that could result from tripping, falling, contact with other individuals, and equipment failure, among other causes. I assume responsibility for all risks, known and unknown, involving Student(s)’ participation in the Program and in any Private Lessons, and I voluntarily authorize Student(s)’ participation in reliance upon my own judgment and knowledge of Student(s)’ experience and capabilities.
Additionally, I understand and acknowledge that the Program and Private Lessons, including participation in dance instruction, necessarily involves Student(s)s and instructors being in close physical proximity. While the Company takes precautions to reduce the risk of transmission of infectious diseases, including COVID-19, such risks cannot be eliminated and you agree to accept all related risk, as well as all liability should you or your child be exposed to, or infected with, any infection disease, including COVID-19, and you also release the Company from any such liability. I further agree that my Student(s) will not attend any classes when symptomatic or subject to a known exposure.
I also represent that Student(s) is in proper physical and other condition to participate in the Program. I understand that it is my sole responsibility to determine whether Student(s) is sufficiently fit and healthy enough to participate in the Program, and if necessary, I will consult with Student(s)’ physician for appropriate guidance.
On behalf of myself and my Student(s), I hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Company and its owners, managers, officers, directors, employees, contracts, affiliates and agents (the “Released Parties”) from any liability, losses, costs, damages, claims or causes of action of any kind or nature whatsoever, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from, resulting from, or relating in any way to Student(s)’ participation in the Program or participation in any Private Lessons, EVEN IF ARISING OUT OF NEGLIGENCE. I further agree that if, despite the foregoing, Student(s) or anyone on Student(s)’ behalf, makes a claim against any of the Released Parties, I will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Released Parties from any liabilities which may be incurred as a result of such claim.
Furthermore, I waive and release all claims, now known or hereafter known, against the Released Parties arising from, resulting from, or relating in any way to Student(s)’ participation in the Program or participation in any Private Lessons, EVEN IF ARISING OUT OF NEGLIGENCE. I agree not to make or bring any such claim against the Released Parties and forever release and discharge the Released Parties from liability under such claims.
