GENERAL WAIVER & RELEASE
​
This General Waiver & Release outlines the terms, responsibilities, and agreements required for participation in any session, program, workshop, event, or online offering facilitated by movewithme.withjuanita. By participating, you acknowledge and accept the following:

1. Medical Acknowledgment

I acknowledge that movement, breathwork, mobility, strength, conditioning, and embodied practices involve physical exertion and may carry inherent risks. I confirm that I am physically and medically able to participate and have consulted a healthcare professional if needed.

I understand that the facilitator is not a medical practitioner, physiotherapist, psychologist, or allied health professional, and that all guidance provided is general in nature. I take full responsibility for monitoring my own physical and emotional wellbeing throughout the session.

2. Voluntary Participation

I understand that participation in all sessions is voluntary. I may modify, pause, or stop at any time. I am responsible for listening to my body, honouring my limits, and communicating with the facilitator if I feel unsafe, unwell, or overwhelmed.

3. Assumption of Risk

I acknowledge that participation in physical and embodied practices carries risks, including but not limited to muscle strain, injury, emotional discomfort, or unexpected physical responses. I accept full responsibility for any risks associated with my participation.

4. Not a Substitute for Medical or Therapeutic Care

I understand that the services provided by movewithme.withjuanita are not a substitute for medical, psychological, or therapeutic treatment. I agree to seek appropriate professional support when needed and not rely on sessions as a replacement for medical or mental‑health care.

5. Limitations of Services

I acknowledge that the facilitator provides general movement guidance, breathwork facilitation, and embodied practices within the scope of their training. They do not diagnose, treat, or manage medical or psychological conditions. Any adjustments or suggestions offered are optional and based on general best practice.

6. Release of Liability

I voluntarily and knowingly release movewithme.withjuanita, its facilitator(s), contractors, venue partners, and associated personnel from any liability, claim, demand, or cause of action arising from my participation in any offering.

This release applies to all forms of participation, including in‑person sessions, online sessions, workshops, programs, and events. I accept full responsibility for any injury, discomfort, emotional response, or outcome that may occur, except where liability cannot be excluded under Australian law.

7. Indemnity Clause

I agree to indemnify and hold harmless movewithme.withjuanita, its facilitator(s), contractors, venue partners, and associated personnel from any claim, demand, loss, damage, liability, or expense (including legal fees) arising from my participation.

This includes claims resulting from my own actions, choices, omissions, physical condition, or failure to follow guidance. This indemnity applies except where liability cannot be excluded under Australian law.

8. Confidentiality & Group Safety

I understand that all sessions are grounded in privacy, respect, and cultural and emotional safety. I agree not to share or repeat anything disclosed by participants.

I acknowledge that confidentiality has limits where safety or legal obligations require information to be shared. I agree to uphold respectful behaviour, cultural safety, and appropriate conduct at all times.

9. Photography, Filming & Recording Boundaries

I understand that photography, filming, screenshots, or audio recording are not permitted unless the facilitator has given clear permission and all participants have provided explicit consent.

If media is being captured, I will be informed and may decline without penalty. I agree not to capture or distribute any images or recordings of others.

10. Participant Responsibilities

I agree to:

• honour my physical and emotional limits
• behave respectfully toward all participants and the facilitator
• communicate honestly if I feel unsafe or unwell
• disclose relevant health information
• use equipment safely
• arrive on time and minimise disruptions
• refrain from recording without consent

I understand that failing to uphold these responsibilities may result in being asked to leave a session.

11. Acknowledgment of Online Participation Risks

I understand that online participation carries unique risks, including limited visibility of my environment, technology disruptions, and reduced facilitator ability to intervene.

I am responsible for ensuring a safe space, managing my privacy, and communicating if I need support.

12. Acceptance of Terms

I confirm that I have read, understood, and agree to all sections of this General Waiver & Release. I acknowledge that I have had the opportunity to ask questions and seek clarification.

I understand that participation is voluntary and that I am signing freely and without pressure.

By agreeing to these terms, I enter into a legally binding agreement with movewithme.withjuanita.
