In consideration for being allowed to use said facilities and equipment, and any other services provided Chiara, LLC DBA Equalize Fitness / NinjaCats Warriors (CNCWEQ), or its employees or agents at said location, or any other location within the State of New York, I represent, acknowledge, and agree as follows:

GENERAL RELEASE

I acknowledge and agree that this Agreement covers and is intended to release and provide other benefits, legal protections, and consideration to Chiara LLC, DBA Equalize Fitness, DBA NinjaCats Warriors, and their respective and collective agents, owners, officers, managers, shareholders, affiliates, volunteers, participants, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their respective or collective behalf (collectively, “CNCWEQ”)

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF POTENTIAL INJURIES

I acknowledge and agree that the use of an obstacle course and other equipment at the CNCWEQ Facility involve recreational sport activities, and that participating in obstacle course activities is inherently and obviously dangerous. I understand there is a risk that I or the Child will be injured. I acknowledge that the risks of injury include serious physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, damage to myself, and/or third parties, and damage to personal property of any or all such persons. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity, which I further agree is for recreational purposes and completely voluntary. I acknowledge and agree that, while the obstacle course and other activities that take place at the CNCWEQ Facility are monitored generally by CNCWEQ Facility employees, it is not feasible for such employees to monitor the activities and actions of all customers at all times or all customers simultaneously. Furthermore, CNCWEQ Facility employees have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participant’s health or abilities. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.

VOLUNTARY ASSUMPTION OF RISK ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I acknowledge and agree that I and the Child are participating voluntarily at our own risk. I acknowledge and agree that the actions or activities of other customers or the actions or inactions of CNCWEQ Facility employees could cause me or the Child significant bodily injury (as described in this Agreement), I acknowledge and agree CNCWEQ is not responsible for the actions or activities of customers using the CNCWEQ Facility or the negligence of its employees in supervising the CNCWEQ Facility or its usage, including actions, activities, or omissions that result in such harm. Some of the risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

a) Participants may die or become paralyzed, partially, or fully, through their use of the CNCWEQ facility and participation in CNCWEQ activities.

b) Participants may suffer concussions, cuts, scrapes, bumps, bruises, the transmission of disease strains and allergic reactions through use of the CNCWEQ Facility equipment or contact with other participants or surfaces they have contacted. Participants may sprain, pull, break or otherwise seriously externally or internally injure their head, face (including nose and teeth/jaw), neck, torso, spine, arms, wrists, hands, legs, knees, ankles, feet or other body parts as a result of falling off obstacles(s) or other equipment, landing improperly on the obstacles or other equipment, or making contact with other participants. As noted in paragraph a) above, such injuries can lead to paralysis, disfigurement or death. Participation may result in heat stroke, heart attacks, dehydration and other exertion-related medical events.

c) Participants may fall on each other, resulting in broken bones and other serious injuries.

d) Using obstacles and other equipment can result in similar physical injury (even if the participant is not himself or herself participating at the time).

e) Observing, standing, sitting or taking photographs near any equipment or activity is NOT allowed. Observing, standing, sitting or taking photographs near any equipment or activity can result in physical injury (even if the observer is not himself or herself participating at the time).

I acknowledge that my use of the obstacles and other equipment and participation in other activities at the CNCWEQ Facility is purely voluntary, that there is a risk of serious injury when using the obstacles and other equipment, and that I elect to participate in spite of such risks.

AGREEMENT TO PAY MY OWN MEDICAL EXPENSES

I acknowledge, accept, and assume the risk of any and all medical conditions, limitations, or disabilities (whether temporary or permanent) that I and/or my child possess, whether known or unknown, which might contribute to or exacerbate any injury I might sustain as a result of using the CNCWEQ Facility or any of its equipment. I acknowledge and agree that if medical assistance (of any form, including emergency care, hospitalization, out-patient care, and/or physical therapy) is required or performed as a result of any injury I sustain while using the CNCWEQ Facility, such assistance shall be at my own expense.

MEDICAL TREATMENT AUTHORIZATION

CNCWEQ is authorized to obtain medical treatment and procedures for the child(ren) as may be appropriate in emergency circumstances, including treatment by physicians, hospital and clinic personnel, and other appropriate health care providers.  CNCWEQ is NOT responsible for administrating medication(s) for the child(dren)

RELEASE OF LIABILITY

The Releasing Parties hereby forever, irrevocably and unconditionally release, waive, relinquish, discharge from liability and covenant not to sue CNCWEQ, and their successors, predecessors-in-interest, and insurers (collectively, the “Releasees") from any and all claims, demands, rights, actions, suits, causes of action, obligations, debts, costs, losses, charges, expenses, attorneys’ fees, damages, judgments and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, in law, equity or otherwise, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, and whether or not concealed or hidden, related to or arising, directly or indirectly, from my access to and/or use of the CNCWEQ Facility, premises and/or its equipment (whether obstacles and other equipment or otherwise), my entry into the CNCWEQ Facility, the condition, maintenance, inspection, supervision, control or security of the CNCWEQ Facility, the failure to warn of dangerous conditions in connection with the CNCWEQ Facility, and/or the acts or omissions of CNCWEQ or any of the Releasees, including, without limitation, any claim for negligence, failure to warn or other omission, property damage, personal injury, emotional injury, illness, bodily harm, paralysis or death. I understand that this release and waiver applies not only to use of the obstacles and other equipment, but also all other equipment, and all activities and games at the CNCWEQ Facility. I understand that this release and waiver applies to and includes all activities that I engage in at the premises, whether inside or outside the CNCWEQ Facility. In the event that any claim released herein is brought by, or asserted on behalf of, the Releasing Parties, I shall immediately defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Releasees, and any of them, from any loss or liability, including reasonable attorneys' fees, associated therewith or arising therefrom.

ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES; TIME LIMIT TO BRING CLAIM

I understand that by agreeing to arbitrate any dispute as set forth in this section, I am waiving my right, and the right(s) of the minor child(ren) above, to maintain a lawsuit against CNCWEQ and the other Releasees for any and all claims covered by this Agreement. By agreeing to arbitrate, I understand that I will NOT have the right to have my claim determined by a jury, and the minor child(ren) above will NOT have the right to have claim(s) determined by a jury.

This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to choice of law principles. Notwithstanding the provision with respect to the applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Sec. 1-16). I understand and acknowledge that the JAMS Arbitration Rules to which I agree are available online for my review at jamsadr.com, and include JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures; Rule 16.1 Expedited Procedures; and, Policy On Consumer Minimum Standards Of Procedural Fairness.
