Waiver And Assumption of Risk
I acknowledge that I have voluntarily chosen to participate in one or more physical exercise or fitness activity or sport programs (the βProgramsβ). I acknowledge (i) the nature of the risks of the particular Programs in which I have chosen to participate, and (ii) the strenuous nature of those Programs. I understand, for example, the risks associated with physical injury, abnormal blood pressure, heart attack and even death; as well as the risks associated with the negligence of a Healthways participating location and any other organization or individual participating or involved in providing or promoting any classes, functions, Programs, testing, or other activities that I participate in as a Healthways Program member (including without limitation the owners, officers, directors, employees, and representatives of any of the foregoing).
By signing this document, I expressly assume all risk for my health and well-being and expressly assume the other risks associated with participating in the Programs, including, but not limited to, the negligence of a participating location and any other organization or individual participating or involved in providing or promoting any classes, functions, Programs, testing, or other activities that I participate in as a Program member (including without limitation the owners, officers, directors, employees, and representatives of the foregoing). I also hereby release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue any class instructor, any Healthways participating location, any sponsoring organization, Healthways, Inc., or any of their subsidiaries or any other organization or individual providing or promoting classes, functions, Programs, testing, or other activities that I participated in as a Healthways Program member (including without limitation the owners, officers, directors, employees, and representatives of any of the foregoing) at any time hereafter, from any and all demands, liabilities, losses, or damages (including death, bodily injury or damage to property) caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of any of the foregoing people or entities.
I have read and understand this waiver and express assumption of risk. I have also read, understand, and will adhere to all guidelines and policies in regard to this benefit. This waiver and release shall survive the term of any agreement with a participating location or individual.
