As the guardian of your enrolled student, you understand that yoga includes physical movement and, as is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. By participating, you acknowledge that your child is fit to do so. If they experience any pain or discomfort, they agree to listen to their body and discontinue the activity. You assume full responsibility for any and all damages, which may occur through participation. Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis, or treatment.
The YouTube links found in the classroom will lead your learner to the appropriate week's video. That video should be watched before completing the classroom activities. Additional photos or files may be shared to improve the understanding of a pose or pose sequence discussed in the video.
