SWEAT LUXE PARTICIPATION WAIVER & RELEASE
Please review and sign prior to participating in your first class, private session, event, workshop or other activity at Sweat Luxe.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RISK
I understand that participation in Pilates, Reformer Pilates, yoga, strength training, sculpt, conditioning, heated and non-heated classes, stretching, mobility work and other fitness or wellness activities involves physical exertion and carries inherent risks.
These risks may include, but are not limited to, muscle soreness, strains, sprains, falls, dizziness, dehydration, overheating, aggravation of a pre-existing condition, equipment-related injury and other physical injury.
I voluntarily choose to participate and accept the ordinary risks associated with these activities.
HEALTH + MEDICAL RESPONSIBILITY
I represent that I am physically able to participate in the activities I choose to attend.
I understand that Sweat Luxe instructors and staff are not physicians and do not provide medical diagnosis, treatment or medical advice.
I am responsible for consulting with an appropriate healthcare professional before participating if I am pregnant, recently postpartum, recovering from surgery or injury, taking medication that may affect exercise tolerance, or have any medical condition that could affect my ability to safely exercise.
I agree to immediately stop exercising and notify an instructor if I experience pain, dizziness, faintness, unusual shortness of breath, nausea or other concerning symptoms.
INSTRUCTION + MODIFICATIONS
I understand that instructors may offer physical demonstrations, verbal cues, modifications or optional hands-on adjustments during class.
I remain responsible for determining whether an exercise or modification is appropriate for me and may decline any exercise or hands-on adjustment at any time.
I agree to follow studio instructions, equipment procedures and safety rules.
EQUIPMENT + STUDIO SAFETY
I understand that Pilates equipment, weights, resistance bands, props and other studio equipment must be used only as instructed.
I will not use equipment in a manner that I have not been instructed to use and will notify staff if I am unfamiliar with any equipment.
Grip socks are required where designated by Sweat Luxe. I agree to comply with all footwear, attire and studio safety requirements.
HEATED CLASSES
If I voluntarily participate in a heated or warm-format class, I acknowledge that exercise in an elevated-temperature environment may increase physical demands and risks including dehydration, dizziness, overheating and heat-related illness.
I agree to hydrate appropriately, rest when necessary and leave the heated environment if I feel unwell.
Participation in a heated class is voluntary, and I understand that I may choose a non-heated format instead.
PERSONAL PROPERTY
I understand that Sweat Luxe is not responsible for loss, theft or damage to personal belongings brought into the studio except to the extent responsibility cannot legally be waived.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK + RELEASE
To the fullest extent permitted by New Jersey law, I knowingly and voluntarily assume the inherent and ordinary risks associated with my participation in Sweat Luxe activities.
I release and hold harmless Sweat Luxe, its owners, employees, instructors, contractors and agents from claims arising from the ordinary and inherent risks of my voluntary participation, except to the extent that liability cannot legally be released or waived under applicable law.
Nothing in this agreement is intended to waive rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived under New Jersey law.
EMERGENCY CARE
If I become injured or ill and emergency assistance is reasonably believed to be necessary, I authorize Sweat Luxe staff to contact emergency medical services on my behalf.
I understand that I am responsible for expenses associated with medical or emergency care provided to me.
STUDIO POLICIES
I agree to follow Sweat Luxe booking, cancellation, late-arrival, no-show, safety and conduct policies as communicated through the studio website, booking platform or staff.
I understand that continued participation may be refused if studio policies or safety instructions are not followed.
