Transformative Coaching LLC Liability Waiver

1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK
I understand that participation in fitness classes, whether in person or virtual, involves inherent risks. In-person risks include, but are not limited to, strength training, stroller-based workouts, jogging, outdoor exercise, babywearing during exercise, uneven terrain, and weather conditions. Virtual risks include, but are not limited to, exercising in a space I select and prepare, on flooring or surfaces I choose, with equipment I provide, and without an instructor physically present to observe or correct my form. Risks in both settings include muscle strain, injury, falls, trips, equipment-related injury, and risks associated with exercising while supervising or carrying a child. I voluntarily choose to participate and accept responsibility for any injury, damage, or loss that may occur.

2. MEDICAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT
I confirm that I am physically able to participate in exercise and have no condition that would prevent safe participation, or I have been cleared by a licensed medical provider. I understand that Transformative Coaching LLC does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. I agree to stop exercising and seek appropriate care if I experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any other concerning symptoms.

3. RELEASE OF LIABILITY
I hereby release, waive, and discharge Transformative Coaching LLC, Haley Bretl, and any instructors, assistants, contractors, or affiliates from any and all liability, claims, demands, or causes of action arising out of or related to participation in in-person or virtual classes. This includes, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims based on negligence. I understand that while the business maintains commercial general liability and professional liability insurance, I remain personally responsible for my participation.

4. VIRTUAL CLASS PARTICIPATION
For virtual classes, I acknowledge and agree that:

  • I am solely responsible for choosing a safe space to exercise, including adequate room to move, stable non-slip flooring, sufficient lighting, and an area free of obstacles, furniture, pets, and hazards.

  • I am solely responsible for the condition, suitability, and safe use of any equipment I use, including weights, bands, mats, and household items.

  • The instructor's ability to observe me is limited or may not exist, and the instructor cannot guarantee correction of my form or technique.

  • Transformative Coaching LLC is not responsible for interruptions, lag, disconnections, or other technical issues, and such issues do not entitle me to a refund or credit unless otherwise stated.

  • I will not share class links or passwords with anyone who is not a registered participant, and I will not record, screenshot, or share any part of a virtual class.

5. CHILD SUPERVISION AND RESPONSIBILITY
If a child or children are present during an in-person or virtual class, I acknowledge and agree that I am solely responsible for their supervision, safety, and well-being at all times. I understand this is not a childcare service. Any assistant or helper present at an in-person class is not responsible for supervision. During virtual classes, I am responsible for keeping children clear of my exercise space and equipment. I assume all risks related to my child's presence and participation.

6. STROLLER AND BABYWEARING DISCLAIMER
If I choose to use a stroller or wear my baby during class, I acknowledge and agree that I am solely responsible for proper use, fit, and safety of my stroller or carrier. I understand that movement while wearing a child increases risk of injury to both myself and my child. I accept full responsibility for any injury, harm, or incident related to the use of a stroller or baby carrier. Transformative Coaching LLC does not provide instruction on babywearing safety or equipment fitting.

7. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES DISCLAIMER
All coaching and instruction, in person or virtual, are provided for general fitness purposes only and do not replace medical, physical therapy, or healthcare advice.

8. PHOTOGRAPHY AND MEDIA RELEASE
I grant permission for Transformative Coaching LLC to capture and use photos or videos of me from in-person classes for marketing and promotional purposes. Virtual classes are not recorded. I understand that during virtual classes, my video, name, and audio may be visible to other participants. I may keep my camera off or use a display name of my choosing. I may opt out of marketing use by notifying the instructor in writing.

9. PAYMENT AND CLASS TERMS
All sales are final unless otherwise stated. Memberships are non-transferable.

10. WEATHER AND CANCELLATION POLICY
Outdoor classes may be modified, moved to a virtual format, or canceled due to weather or safety concerns. Notification will be provided via the primary communication platform. Credits or rescheduling are at the discretion of Transformative Coaching LLC.

11. CODE OF CONDUCT
Participants agree to act respectfully and follow instructor guidance, both in person and online. Disruptive, unsafe, or inappropriate behavior, including inappropriate conduct in virtual chat or on camera, may result in removal from class without refund.

12. SEVERABILITY
If any part of this agreement is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

AGREEMENT
I have read and understand this waiver. I voluntarily agree to its terms and understand that I am giving up certain legal rights.
