In this Agreement the term “Activities” shall include all activities in any way directly or indirectly related to participation in the martial arts and other related activities offered by the Owner including, but not limited to, activities with other students, staff, or instructors which may include: extreme physical exertion; sparring; physical combat; throwing; wrestling; chokeholds; presser locks; and punching or kicking; and other activities which the staff or instructors may deem suitable for physical training; all of which may result in injuries including but not limited to: soreness; bruising; strained muscles or tendons; sprained ligaments; joint dislocations; unconsciousness; broken bones; paralysis; brain damage and death.

In this Agreement the term “Ward” shall include minor children, or persons under guardianship due to age or incapacity.

ASSUMPTION OF RISKS

I am aware that the Activities involve many risks, danger and hazards, inherent or otherwise, including but not limited to the inherently dangerous nature of physical combat, the failure to use or properly use safety equipment, and the actions of other students. I understand that due to the location in which the Activities occur, medical treatment may not be readily available in the event of an injury or accident. I am also aware that there is a risk of NEGLIGENCE ON THE PART OF THE OWNER OR THE OWNER’S STAFF OR AGENTS, INCLUDING THE FAILURE ON THE PART OF THE OWNER AND ITS STAFF OR AGENTS TO SAFEGUARD OR PROTECT ME OR MY WARD FROM THE RISKS, DANGERS AND HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACTIVITIES.

I FREELY ACCEPT AND FULLY ASSUME ALL RISKS, DANGERS AND HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACTIVITIES AND THE POSSIBILITY OF MY LOSS OF PROPERTY, PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH OR THAT OF MY WARD AND LOSS RESULTING THEREFROM.
