RELEASE. By registering my child, I release Jan's School of Dance and their directors, owners, students, teachers, staff, employees, volunteers, associates (collectively referred to in this document as “Jan's School of Dance”) from any liability or claim that I or my representatives may have against Jan's School of Dance with respect to any bodily injury, personal injury, illness, death, or property loss or damage that may result from my participation at Jan's School of Dance. I choose for my child to participate in classes, performances, workshops, and other activities at Jan's School of Dance of my own free will and certify that my child is in proper physical condition to take part in such activities. If I have questions about whether an activity is suitable for my child to pursue, I will consult my child's health care provider in making that decision. If my child has any known physical vulnerabilities, conditions, or injuries, I agree to discuss them with the director before participating. I voluntarily release and forever discharge and hold harmless Jan's School of Dance from any and all claims or demands for damages, loss of services, costs and expenses, injuries, attorney fees, and any other call for reparation from any and all injury to me or my property arising in any way from my participation in dance classes, camps, intensives, workshops, performances, troupes, the use of Jan's School of Dance equipment or facilities, and any activities associated with Jan's School of Dance.
RISKS. I understand that there are risks of physical injury associated with, arising out of, and inherent to dancing. These risks include the potential for slips and falls, sprains, strains, dislocations, soft tissue injuries, musculoskeletal injuries, podiatric conditions, and other risks not specified here. Understanding these risks and the potential for others not listed, I agree to personally accept and assume all of the risks present in my child's participation at Jan's School of Dance. My child's participation at Jan's School of Dance is entirely voluntary, and I choose to participate in spite of the risks. Dance education sometimes requires hands-on instruction as well as verbal instruction. Instructors may correct dancers by touching their arms, legs, feet, hips, back and head to move them in the correct position. I acknowledge that this is a common standard in dance instruction and understand that it is my responsibility to communicate clearly with my teacher and/or the director if any form of touch is unacceptable to me.
MEDICAL TREATMENT & INSURANCE. I understand that Jan's School of Dance does not assume any responsibility for or obligation to provide financial or other assistance in the event of injury or illness, including but not limited to medical, health, or disability insurance or support. I authorize Jan's School of Dance to obtain necessary medical or dental treatment, including first aid, ambulance transport, hospitalization, or such other care necessary for my health and welfare in an emergency. If my insurance does not cover emergency treatment that is deemed necessary and sought for me by Jan's School of Dance, I agree to be responsible for and pay all costs incurred on my behalf. I release and discharge Jan's School of Dance from any claim which may arise on account of any first aid, treatment, or service rendered in connection with my child's participation in Jan's School of Dance activities or with the decision by any representative or agent of Jan's School of Dance to consent to medical or dental treatment on my behalf in an emergency. I understand that Jan's School of Dance does not carry or maintain health, medical, dental, or disability insurance coverage for any participant. I agree to take responsibility for full payment of any emergency medical or dental costs related to my child's Jan's School of Dance participation regardless of whether I have insurance coverage.
PHOTOGRAPHIC RELEASE. I understand that Jan's School of Dance may take photo and video recordings of me and my family while at the studio and participating in Jan's School of Dance classes, activities, and related events. I convey to Jan's School of Dance full rights and interest in these recordings. I understand such recordings may be used in advertising or other published materials, physical or virtual.
MISCELLANEOUS. While my child is a participant at Jan's School of Dance, I agree that my child and I will abide by any rules, codes, and policies that are put in place by Jan's School of Dance before or at any time during participation. If I have questions or concerns regarding any policies or decisions made by any representative of Jan's School of Dance, I agree to bring them promptly and specifically to the director’s attention. If I file a lawsuit against Jan's School of Dance, I agree to do so solely in the state of Indiana and agree that the substantive law of Indiana shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining document shall remain in full force and effect.
