DO NOT SIGN WITHOUT READING • TUITION. I have read the following agreement in its entirety and my signature below denotes that I understand the content of this agreement and agree to abide by the policies outlined. In addition, I understand that all registration fees and tuition are non - refundable for ALL classes and short sessions, past, present, and future, regardless of reason and with no exceptions to this policy and will not ask for an exception to be made. For year - long sessions, I understand the following: I realize that tuition is calculated for our 10 - month dance year (September through June), and then divided into 10 equal installments for ease of payment. I realize that tuition continues to accrue whether my dancer is attending or not, until I e-mail and receive written confirmation that my dancer has been dropped from the roster. I realize that I will not be charged more for months with 5 classes, nor will I receive a discount for months with 3 classes. I realize that I will be charged a tuition installment each month until June 30 of the current dance year, or until I give written 30 - day notice by e-mail and receive the required e-mail reply to confirm my drop notice. I will be responsible for tuition during those 30 days (prorated as needed). I understand that notice by e-mail with proof of confirmation is the only way to sever my registration and stop future tuition from accruing. I realize that tuition is due on or before the 1st of the month regardless of whether I have received an invoice or not, and that after a grace period of 8 days, I will be charged a $20.00 late fee, regardless of reason for lateness. I realize that I have been given many ways to pay my tuition, including paying by cash, check or credit card, and that I may pay online, by mail, at the studio, or by phone. I realize that if I do not pay tuition per the above policies, my dancer may be withheld from class. If I choose to enroll in auto - pay, I realize that it is my responsibility to keep my credit card updated and if I wish to discontinue auto - pay before the dance year is over, it is my responsibility to log in and make this change in my account. I realize that I forfeit all classes that my dancer does not attend.
I HEREBY ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS OF PARTICIPATING IN THIS ACTIVITY OR EVENT, including by way of example and not limitation, any risks that may arise from negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons or entities being released from dangerous or defective equipment or property owned, maintained, or controlled by them, or because of their possible liability without fault.
I UNDERSTAND THAT MY DANCER MUST ARRIVE ON TIME TO WAIT IN THE STUDENT HALLWAY BEFORE CLASS. Late arrivals may miss the warmup, and this may result in my dancer sitting and watching the entirety of class, as they may not be sufficiently warmed up for the activities occurring.
I UNDERSTAND THE INB DRESS CODE, AND THE NEED FOR ADHERENCE, especially in regard to shoes being properly tied and secured before class and agree to abide by this code for the safety of my dancer. I understand that INB may take photos and video recordings of my dancer and/or family during our participation in INB classes and activities. I convey to INB full rights and interest in these recordings. I understand such recordings may be used in advertising or other published materials, physical or virtual. If I do NOT consent to being photographed or video recorded, I will provide written notice by e-mail with proof of confirmation to make sure the director is aware of my concerns. I understand that this choice may limit my dancer’s participation in workshops/performances that are routinely photographed/videotaped.
I CERTIFY THAT MY DANCER IS PHYSICALLY FIT and has sufficiently prepared for participation in the activity or event and has not been advised to not participate by a qualified medical professional. I certify that there are no health-related reasons or problems which preclude my dancer’s participation in this activity or event. If I have questions about whether an activity is suitable for my dancer to pursue, I will consult my health care provider in making that decision. If my dancer has any known physical vulnerabilities, conditions, or injuries, I agree to discuss them with the instructor or director before participating.
I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE RISKS OF INJURY ASSOCIATED WITH, ARISING OUT OF, AND INHERENT TO DANCE TRAINING. These risks include the potential for slips, falls, sprains, strains, dislocations, soft tissue injuries, musculoskeletal injuries, podiatric conditions, and other risks not specified here. Understanding these risks and the potential for others not listed above, I agree to personally accept and assume all of the risks present in my dancer’s participation at INB. My dancer’s participation at INB is entirely voluntary, and I choose for my family to participate in spite of the risks.
I UNDERSTAND THAT DANCE EDUCATION INVOLVES BOTH VERBAL AND HANDS ON INSTRUCTION. Instructors may correct dancers by touching their arms, legs, feet, hips, back and head to move them in the correct position. I acknowledge that this is a common standard in dance instruction and understand that it is my responsibility to communicate clearly with the instructor and/or the director if any form of touch is unacceptable to me or my dancer.
I UNDERSTAND THAT INB DOES NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR, or obligation to provide financial or other assistance in the event of injury or illness, including but not limited to medical, health, or disability insurance or support.
I AUTHORIZE INB TO OBTAIN NECESSARY MEDICAL OR DENTAL TREATMENT, including first aid, ambulance transport, hospitalization, or such other care necessary for the health and welfare of my family or I in an emergency. If my insurance does not cover emergency treatment that is deemed necessary and sought for me by INB, I agree to be responsible for and pay all costs incurred on my family’s behalf.
I RELEASE AND DISCHARGE INB FROM ANY CLAIM which may arise on account of any first aid, treatment, or service rendered during my family’s or my participation in INB activities or with the decision by any representative of INB to consent to medical/dental treatment on my family’s behalf in the event of an emergency.
I UNDERSTAND THAT INB DOES NOT CARRY OR MAINTAIN HEALTH/MEDICAL/DENTAL/DISABILITY INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR ANY PARTICIPANT. I agree to take responsibility for full payment of any emergency medical/dental costs related to my family’s or my participation regardless of whether I have insurance coverage.
I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS ACCIDENT WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY FORM will be used by the event holders, sponsors, and organizers of the activity or event in which my family or I may participate, and that it will govern my family’s actions and responsibilities at said activity or event.
I AGREE THAT IF I FEEL MY DANCER NEEDS SUPERVISION, I will not leave them unattended in the lobby, before or after class at any time.
In consideration of my application and permitting me to participate in this event, I hereby take action for myself, my executors, administrators, heirs, next of kin, successors, and assigns as follows: I HEREBY WAIVE, RELEASE, AND DISCHARGE INLAND NORTHWEST BALLET and all divisions thereof of any and all liability and responsibility for injuries, sickness, pandemics, accidents, natural disasters and/or acts of God incurred during participation in and/or instruction of classes, camps, intensives, private instruction, choreography, performance, or any activity in which my family or I may participate.
I UNDERSTAND the need to leave strollers outside the building in order to not block fire exits in the hallway and lobby.
I VOLUNTARILY RELEASE AND FOREVER DISCHARGE AND HOLD HARMLESS INB from any and all claims or demands for damages, loss of services, costs and/or expenses, injuries, attorney fees, and any other call for reparation from any and all injury to me, my family, or my property arising in any aspect from my family’s or my participation in dance classes, lessons, camps, intensives, workshops, performances, the use of INB equipment or facilities, and any activities associated with INB.
I WAIVE, RELEASE, AND DISCHARGE from any and all liability, including but not limited to, liability arising from the negligence or fault of the entities or persons released, for my family’s or my death, disability, personal injury, property damage, property theft, or actions of any kind which may hereafter occur to my family or I including traveling to and from this event, THE FOLLOWING ENTITIES OR PERSONS: INLAND NORTHWEST BALLET and/or their directors, officers, managers, faculty, assistants, students, employees, volunteers, representatives, associates, and agents, theater, and event volunteers.
I INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS, AND PROMISE NOT TO SUE the entities or persons mentioned in this waiver, release and registration forms from any and all liabilities or claims made as a result of participation in this activity or event, whether caused by negligence or otherwise.
THE ACCIDENT WAIVER/RELEASE OF LIABILITY shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law.
I AGREE THAT IF ANY PORTION of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining document shall remain in full force and effect.
I CERTIFY THAT I HAVE READ THIS DOCUMENT, AND I FULLY UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRETY OF ITS CONTENT. I AM AWARE THAT THIS IS A FULL AND COMPLETE RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND A CONTRACT AND I SIGN IT OF MY OWN FREE WILL FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY.
