WAIVER / RELEASE / ASSUMPTION OF RISK / PAYMENT TERMS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This waiver, release, assumption of risk, and payment terms acknowledgement is entered into between GRPL LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“GRPL”), and me the participant signed below on behalf of myself and if applicable, my family.
I hereby agree and acknowledge:
a) I have been advised that the activities that occur on and around the mat, including the martial art known as "Jiu-Jitsu" is taught and carried out using precautions to avoid any injuries. However, participation in gym activities and activities in the kids zone carry with it certain inherent risks and dangers that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. The specific risks range from minor injuries such as scratches, bruises, and sprains, to major injuries such as eye injury or loss of sight, joint or back injuries, heart attacks, and concussions, to catastrophic injuries including paralysis and death.
b) The practice of JiuJitsu presents a risk of skin infections, MRSA, transmittable diseases, bacteria(s) and viruses, including, but not limited to, COVID-19.
c) I shall not attend classes nor enter the gym if I am diagnosed with COVID-19 or if I am in close contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19. Further, if I am displaying symptoms of COVID-19, or if I am in close contact with someone who is displaying symptoms of COVID-19, I shall not attend classes. Symptoms of COVID-19 can range from mild illness to pneumonia, including fever, respiratory symptoms such as coughing, sore throat and/or shortness of breath, and other symptoms such as a runny nose, headache, muscle or joint pains, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, loss of sense of smell, altered sense of taste, loss of appetite and fatigue. If I am displaying these symptoms when in attendance I acknowledge that I may be asked to leave.
d) Along with the possibility of personal injury, injury to property is also possible, including but not limited to, possible loss of wages and the ability to earn such wages.
e) I acknowledge that I have consulted with a physician and I have no health problems that would preclude me from full and safe participation in GRPL classes.
f) With full knowledge and understanding of the aforementioned risks, both to myself and to my property, and after having these dangers fully explained to myself and/or to my legal guardian who has herunder signed, I nevertheless desire to participate in GRPL training and activities.
g) Due to the nature of the activities conducted in Jiu Jitsu classes, it would be unreasonable for GRPL (d.b.a. GRPL HAUS) and/or the respective owners, directors and shareholders, agents and employees to be in any way responsible for my injury (or death) and to the maximum extent permitted by law I hereby waive my legal rights of action against and fully release the company for loss, damages, injury or death however arising out of or in relation to my participation in the activities conducted or organized by the company including, without limitation, liability for any negligent or tortious act or omission, breach of duty, breach of contract or breach of statutory duty on the part of the company, its office bearers, directors, employees or agents. Further, I hereby indemnify and hold harmless GRPL, its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, and employees from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, and attorney fees arising out of or in connection with my participation in GRPL Jiu-Jitsu training and activities.
h) I have and will maintain appropriate medical insurance during classes/training. I authorize any emergency first aid, CPR, AEDs, medication, medical treatment, and/or emergency transportation and I assume all costs involved in such treatment.
i) I understand that GRPL reserves the right to refuse service to any individual who has been convicted of a sex crime.
j) I will not video record or photograph any classes/training for commercial purposes without prior permission from GRPL. If I am granted permission to record, I will not post any minors who are not members of my own household without permission from their parents.
k) I am also aware that for purposes of safety, security and quality control there may be surveillance cameras mounted throughout GRPL. Furthermore, I understand and acknowledge that video, audio or photographs may be taken of me during classes/training. I hereby grant GRPL Inc (d.b.a. GRPL) the unlimited use of my likeness in any format – photo, video, or other – for promotional advertisement or commercial use in any format known or yet to be developed in perpetuity, and I forfeit any form of payment.
l) During the term of my membership I agree to keep a card on file with GRPL, and I hereby authorize GRPL to automatically charge the membership fee each month during the term of my membership and to charge my card for pro shop purchases as they are made. I acknowledge and agree that all membership fees are non-refundable, and membership fees are subject to change from time-to-time with advance notice from GRPL. I understand that I may cancel my membership at any time to stop future billing.
m) I agree to abide by all GRPL rules and policies in connection with my participation, including those attached to this agreement, which are subject to change upon notice from GRPL.
n) I agree that if any term of this agreement is to any extent illegal, otherwise invalid, or incapable of being enforced, it shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, or severed if required by law, and all other terms shall remain in full force and effect.
I understand that this agreement supersedes any and all previous oral or written agreements with regards to the practice of Jiu-Jitsu and I give up substantial rights by signing it.
