In consideration of being permitted by Firestorm Freerunning - Galaxy LLC ("FFG" herein) to participate in its activities and to use its equipment and facilities, I hereby agree to release, indemnify, and discharge FFG, its agents, owners, managers, employees, volunteers, participants, lessors, affiliates, its subsidiaries, related and affiliated entities, successors and assigns (the "RELEASED PARTIES") on behalf of myself, my spouse, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and estate as follows: 1) I acknowledge that my participation in programs, classes, and events offered by FFG (the "ACTIVITIES" herein), and my use of the facilities and all related equipment and/or property (The "PREMISES" herein), all entail known and unknown risks of injury, including, but not limited to: physical or emotional injury, death, damage to myself, to property or to third parties. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activities, and such risks are inherent in using the PREMISES. In any event, if I or my child is injured, I or my child may require medical assistance, at my own expense. 2) I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in the ACTIVITIES and in the use of the PREMISES. My participation in the ACTIVITIES is purely voluntary and I elect to participate despite the risks. 3) I acknowledge that while participating in the ACTIVITIES, I will receive information and instruction about various physical fitness activities, including but not limited to, martial arts, parkour and freerunning, tricking, tumbling, dance, and strength/endurance training. I recognize that fitness programs require physical exertion that may be considered strenuous and cause physical injury, and I am fully aware of the risks and hazards involved. 4) I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to and regarding my participation in the ACTIVITIES. I affirm and warrant that I am physically fit and I have no medical condition that would prevent my full participation in the ACTIVITIES. Furthermore, I affirm and warrant that I will not be under the influence of alcohol or any substance that would impair my ability to participate in the ACTIVITIES. 5) In addition, FFG employees strive for safety, but they are not infallible. They may be unaware of a participant's physical and/or mental fitness or abilities. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment used may become loose, out of adjustment, or malfunction. There is also the risk that FFG employees may be negligent in, among other things, monitoring and supervising use of its equipment and facilities and in the maintenance of its equipment and facilities. 6) I, my spouse, assignees, heirs, guardians, and legal representatives hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the RELEASED PARTIES from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action that are in any way connected with my participation in the ACTIVITIES or my use of the PREMISES, including any such claims arising out of the alleged negligent acts or omissions of the RELEASED PARTIES. 7) I agree that if any action in law or equity is brought to enforce or to interpret the terms of this Release of Liability, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and costs in addition to any other relief to which that party might be entitled. 8) I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage that I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage to myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical condition that I may have. 9) In the event that I file a lawsuit against FFG, I agree to do so solely in the state of California and I further agree that the substantive law of California shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of the law rules of that state. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect. 10) As an adult participant, and/or as the Parent/Legal Guardian of a minor participant, and in consideration of being permitted to participate at FFG, I hereby grant FFG and any related or affiliated entities, officers, managers, directors, partners, employees, agents, successors and assigns, the irrevocable right and permission to photograph and/or record me or my child(ren)/ward(s) in connection with FFG, and to use the photograph and/or recording for all purposes, including advertising and promotion purposes, in any manner in any and all media now and hereafter known, in perpetuity throughout the world, without restriction as to alteration.

All photographs and/or recordings are exclusive to FFG. 11) I hereby acknowledge that FFG has rules and policies in place regarding safety and use of the PREMISES. I acknowledge that I have reviewed and understand all safety rules and other rules of participation in the ACTIVITIES, and that failure to comply with or follow any of these rules and policies may result in complete revocation of all privileges provided by FFGÂ without any refund of any prepaid fees. 12) I accept all liability for any damage or destruction of the PREMISES due to my own negligence or failure to comply with FFG's rules and policies, or that of my child(ren) 13) If the participant is a minor, I agree that this Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk agreement is made on behalf of that minor participant and that all of the releases, waivers and promises herein are binding on and applicable to that minor participant.

By signing this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or damaged during my participation in the programs, classes, events or activities at the facilities, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to have waived, my, or the minor's participant's right to maintain a lawsuit against FFG or any of the RELEASED PARTIES on the basis of my claim from which I released them herein.
