PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT, RELEASE, & ASSUMPTION OF RISK *

In consideration of the services of Yoga Squirrels (Sonia Peltzer and Casey Stroud), their agents, owners, officers, volunteers, participants, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their behalf (hereinafter collectively referred to as “YS”). I hereby agree to release, indemnify, and discharge YS, on behalf of myself, my spouse, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, personal representative and estate as follows:

I acknowledge that my participation in rock climbing, yoga, AcroYoga, thai massage, and camping entails known and unanticipated risks that could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, or damage to myself, to property, or to third parties. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of activity. -The risks include, among other things: the hazards of walking on uneven terrain; slips and falls; rope burns; pinches, scrapes, twists and jolts that could result in scratches, bruises, sprains, lacerations, fractures, concussions, or even more severe life threatening hazards; being struck by rock fall or other objects dislodged or thrown from above; the use of rope and equipment; the forces of nature, including lightning or rapid weather changes; the risk of falling off the rock; exposure to temperature and weather extremes which could cause hypothermia, hyperthermia (heat related illnesses), heat exhaustion, sunburn, dehydration; and exposure to potentially dangerous wild animals, insect bites, and hazardous plant life; the negligence of other participants or persons who may be present; my own physical condition, and the physical exertion associated with these activities. -Furthermore, YS employees have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participant’s fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather or other environmental conditions. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.

I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in this activity. My participation in this activity purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks

I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless YS from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in anyway connected with my participation in this activity or my use of YS’s equipment or facilities, including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omissions of YS.

Should YS or anyone acting on their behalf, be required to incur attorney’s fees and costs to enforce this agreement, I agree to indemnify and hold them harmless for all such fees and costs.

I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participation, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical condition I may have.

In the event that I file a lawsuit against YS, I agree to do so solely in the state of California, and I further agree that the substantive law of that state shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state. 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 effective.

By signing this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or property is damaged during my participation in this activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against YS on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein. I have sufficient opportunity to read this entire document. I have read and understood it, and I agree to be bound by its terms.
