Acknowledgment of Risks

I understand that participating in reformer pilates, mat pilates and yoga involves physical activity, including, but not limited to, stretching, balance, strength training, flexibility exercises and the use of specialised equipment. I acknowledge that as with any form of exercise participation carries inherent risks. These may include but not be limited to:

  • equipment misuse or malfunction
  • aggravation of an existing injury or medical condition
  • in rare circumstances, more serious injuries

I understand these risks and voluntarily choose to participate.

Health Declaration

I confirm that, to the best of my knowledge I am able to participate safely in reformer and/or mat pilates and yoga classes.

I understand that it is my responsibility to inform FMB Wellness of any medical conditions, injuries, pregnancy, recent surgery or any other circumstances that may affect my ability to participate safely.

I agree to notify my instructor of any changes to my health before participating in future classes.

If I experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath or any unusual discomfort during a class, I will stop exercising immediately and inform my instructor.

I understand that if I have any concerns regarding my health or fitness to exercise, I should seek advice from my GP or another suitably qualified healthcare professional before participating.

Equipment & Safety

I agree to follow all instructions provided by my instructor regarding the safe use of reformers and any other studio equipment.

I understand that I should only use equipment as instructed and will ask for guidance if I am unsure how to use any equipment safely.

I agree to wear grip socks during all reformer pilates classes in accordance with FMB Wellness studio policy.

Personal Responsibility

  • I acknowledge that I am responsible for exercising within my own physical limits.
  • I agree to participate only to the extent that I feel comfortable and understand that I may stop or modify an exercise at any time.
  • I understand that instructors may offer exercise modifications but cannot guarantee that participation will be suitable for every individual.
  • I understand that participation is voluntary and that I may stop participating in the class at any time if I feel unwell, unsafe or no longer wish to continue.
