4) I acknowledge that ballet and all related activities require intense physical exertion that may be strenuous and may cause physical injury and therefore involve unique risks of Damages, and I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved. I acknowledge the nature of sprung dance floors, "marley" floor covering, mobile floor barres, and other dance equipment, and the consequences of wearing ballet slippers, pointe shoes, socks, or bare feet and other related dance footwear, and I accept full responsibility for my own choice of footwear.
