Updated Participation and COVID Agreement Waivers

We’ve updated our waivers. If you have an existing profile, you will be prompted to resign them before you can register for classes again with us. New profiles will be prompted to sign when they are created.

PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

I understand that classes at Ascendance Pole & Aerial Arts may be physically strenuous and I voluntarily participate in them with full knowledge that there is risk of personal injury, property loss or death. 

I understand the risk of injury from studio coordinated activities and that using any pole and aerial equipment may be significant, including the potential for injury or death. I knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both unknown and known.  

I acknowledge that I may engage in both privately supervised, group supervised or unsupervised activity and I assume all risks of using equipment, movement, or exercise routines or props with or without staff present.

I agree that neither I, my heirs, assigns or legal representatives will sue or make any other claims of any kind whatsoever against Ascendance or its members for any personal injury, property damage/loss, or wrongful death, whether caused by negligence or otherwise.

I expressly agree that this release is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by applicable law and if a portion of this release is held invalid the balance shall remain in full force and effect. I understand that this business is relying on this release in agreeing to enter into this agreement. I have read the release of liability and assumptions of the risk agreement and fully understand its terms and that I have given up substantial rights by signing It and I sign it freely and voluntarily without inducement.

COVID-19 AGREEMENT


Each time you come to Ascendance Pole and Aerial Arts, you are agreeing to the following: 

The novel Coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person to person contact. I understand that COVID-19 virus has a long incubation period during which carriers of the virus may not show symptoms and still be highly contagious. I understand that risks may still persist, despite mask wearing, increased sanitation protocols, and vaccinations, and hereby agree that by entering the studio I am assuming these risks and holding Ascendance harmless. 

I agree not to enter Ascendance facilities if I believe I have COVID-19, have symptoms consistent with COVID-19, or if I have come into contact with anyone who has tested positive for the virus in the last month. 

I agree to adhere to Ascendance’s mask policy. The mask policy states that everyone, regardless of vaccination status must wear a mask upon entry and in all common spaces (hallways, lobby, bathroom, etc.)  Once inside a studio, those who have been fully vaccinated (with a 2 week waiting period after completion) may remove their masks if they choose.  Ascendance reserves the right to verify proof of vaccination at any time for any reason. I acknowledge that failure to comply with said policy, including misrepresentation of my vaccination status may result in a permanent ban from the studio.

To the best of my knowledge, I have not shown any symptoms of COVID-19 in the past 14 days. According to the CDC, these symptoms include shortness of breath or difficulty breathing.

Or at least two of these symptoms:

  • Fever

  • Chills

  • Repeated shaking with chills

  • Muscle pain

  • Headache

  • Sore throat

  • Loss of taste or smell

  • Gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, vomiting or diarrhea

I agree to notify Ascendance Pole and Aerial Arts immediately if I have developed symptoms within 14 days of being at the studio.  I understand that if I intentionally or willfully violate the hygiene protocols at Ascendance, that Ascendance has the right to excuse me without refund.  I understand that this policy may be updated at any time with the changing guidelines and requirements.  

I have read and understand the above information and I agree to not hold Ascendance Pole and Aerial Arts or any of its employees liable if I or a family member contract COVID-19 during the time I am using services at Ascendance Pole and Aerial Arts.
