Consent Form

It is a prerequisite to participation in any Encore exercise program that all participants complete the YWCA Encore process which includes submitting a Medical Approval form signed by their medical practitioner before attempting the exercises in our videos and that they follow their doctor’s advice.

It is also a condition of participation in the online Encore program that you assume responsibility for exercising within your limits and that you assume all risk or injury to your person or property. To the extent permitted by law, YWCA Australia and YWCA Encore disclaim any and all liability in connection with the exercises in our online program and any instruction and advice provided.

Technique correction and guidance is limited due to the online nature of these virtual classes. Instructors might recommend you use household items including fixtures. This is only a recommendation and you should ensure items you choose to use are secure and suitable to withstand exercise requirements. You are responsible for the safety and suitability of the environment and space you choose to undertake these classes in.         

If at any time you feel you are excising beyond your current fitness abilities, or you feel discomfort, pain, dizziness, or nausea you should discontinue exercising immediately and seek professional medical advice.
