The Participant understands and accepts that yoga and other fitness activities involve physical movement, mental focus, and breathing exercises. As with any form of physical activity, there is always a potential risk of injury, including serious or disabling injuries, which cannot be entirely eliminated. The Participant fully acknowledges and assumes responsibility for any risks, conditions, injuries, or damage, whether known or unknown, that may occur or be aggravated as a result of participation in yoga, fitness, meditation, sound bath, or breathwork classes provided by Vieques Natural Wellness & Events LLC.

Additionally, it is the Participant’s responsibility to inform the yoga or fitness instructor of any injuries or surgeries prior to the start of class.
