By participating in virtual classes and/or make-ups, I agree that I am qualified to determine that I and/or my child is in good health and in proper physical condition to participate in the class. I agree that if I believe our conditions are unsafe, we will immediately discontinue participation in the activity.

Assumption of Risk
Hunt's Gymnastics Academy, LLC (HGA) (and/or Ninja Zone) is engaged in the instruction and training of students in the general field of gymnastics, tumbling, cheerleading, karate, ninja skills, dance and gymnastics competition, and maintains a facility including a gym and various equipment for such purpose. The undersigned has expressed a desire to engage the services of HGA for such training, and HGA has agreed to provide the same. In consideration of HGA's services to the undersigned, the undersigned, together with the undersigned's heirs, assigns and personal representatives, does hereby agree to release and discharge HGA and/or Ninja Zone, its agents, owners, officers, employees, and all other persons of entities acting in any capacity on its behalf, as follows:
______ The undersigned is over 18 years of age, is competent and is not suffering from any mental or physical disability.
_____ The undersigned is/are the parent(s)/legal guardian(s) of a minor child.
1. I understand and acknowledge that the activity my child is/I am about to engage in poses known risks and unanticipated risks which could result in injury, paralysis, death, emotional distress, or damage to my child, to property, or to third parties. THE FOLLOWING describes some, but not all of those risks: Gymnastics entails certain risks that simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. Without a certain degree of risks gymnastics students would not improve their skills, and the enjoyment of the sport would be diminished. Gymnastics exposes its participants to the usual risk of cuts and bruises. Other more serious risks exist as well. Participants often fall off equipment, sprain or break wrists and ankles, and can suffer more serious injuries as well. Traveling to and from shows, meets and exhibitions raise the possibility of any manner of transportation accidents. In any event, if you or your child is injured, you or your child may require medical assistance at your own expense.
2. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in this activity. My participation or my child's participation in this activity is purely voluntary. No one is forcing me or my child to participate, and I/we elect to participate in spite of the risks as set forth above.
Continuous Enrollment and Autopay
3. HGA has a Continuous Enrollment System. Under this program, all classes will continuously re-enroll until a Request to Withdraw form has been submitted. This will save your class spot so there is no need to re-register each month. Once registered, your child will be automatically enrolled in the class they know and love continuously every month unless you ask us to transfer them to a different class or submit a Request to Withdraw form. No need to risk a class becoming full.
4. All HGA families are required to keep a valid Visa or MasterCard on file. Monthly fees and any remaining balances for the upcoming month will be automatically charged to the card on file on the 28th of each month. You may pay by cash, check or another card before this and your Autopay card on file will not be charged. You will automatically receive an email receipt of your purchase when your Autopay card on file is used. Payment saves your class spot.
Release of Liability
5. I hereby voluntarily release and forever discharge and agree to indemnify and hold HGA completely harmless as to any and all liability, claims, demands, actions or rights of action, which are related to, arise out of, or are in any way connected with my child's participation in this activity.
6. Should HGA, or any person, firm or corporation acting on its behalf, be required to incur attorney's fees, court, or any other related costs or expenses reasonably related to the enforcement of this agreement, I agree to indemnify and reimburse it in full for all such fees, costs and expenses.

I also understand that, for safety reasons, I am not allowed on any of the equipment in the gym.
Medical Emergencies

I certify that my child has health, accident and liability insurance to cover any bodily injury or property damage that may be incurred, caused or suffered in whole or in part while participating in this activity or any event related thereto. In absence of such insurance coverage, I agree to bear all costs for medical care, treatment, medications, physical therapy and any and all other services necessary for the treatment of such bodily injury or repair of such property damage, whether such injury or damage is suffered or caused, directly or indirectly by me or by child.

Photo Release and Michigan Law

11. I agree that Michigan law shall at all times apply to the interpretation, validity and enforcement hereof, and that any and all actions as may be brought with regard to the same shall be brought before a Court of competent jurisdiction in Macomb County, Michigan.

Covid-19 and other infectious agents
I want to do my part to help HGA keep my child(ren), fellow classmates, coaches, and other families as safe as possible under the Covid-19 pandemic safety guidelines. I understand and agree that:
1. I and/or my child will wear a mask into the building and complete the daily health questionnaire before entering the gym area. I will wear my mask the entire time I am in the facility. My child will wear a mask the entire time. (Children younger than 2 are not required to wear a mask)
2. To help HGA reduce the number of people in the facility, I will drop my athlete off and pick him/her up at the designated door if he/she is 6 years old or older and able to use the restroom unassisted.
3. I acknowledge that only one adult is allowed to enter the gym with my student(s) younger than 6. To clarify, no non-student children may accompany the 1 adult into the building)
4. Viewer seating is very limited due to social distancing requirements. I will honor HGA's policies pertaining to where I may view my child's class and for how long (if I must take turns with other viewers).
5. I will do my best to make sure that my child(ren) use the restroom, dress for class, and wash their hands before leaving home.
6. I understand that my child(ren) will be required to wash their hands any time they touch their mouth or sneeze or cough on their hands.
7. I will have my child shower upon returning home, or at minimum, wash their hands and feet.
8. I agree to keep my child home from class if he/she or anyone else in the household has a temperature over 100.4 or presents symptoms such as a sore throat, an uncontrollable cough that causes difficulty breathing, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain or severe headache. I agree to keep my child home until a 24 hour period free from these symptoms and fever.
9. If my child or another household member tests positive for covid-19, I will supply this information to HGA immediately.
10. I understand and agree that HGA's procedures regarding covid-19 safety will evolve as a reflection of changes that come from federal and local regulations. I agree to comply with such changes.
11. I understand that the HGA staff will make a strong effort to maintain the prescribed social distance but even with these best efforts and intentions, there will be times when children breach that distance. In addition, I agree that our teaching and coaching staff may need to spot (physically assist) when the child's safety requires it and give consent. Further, I acknowledge that HGA staff may need to provide direct assistance in the event of an injury, even minor, even if just a momentary elbow bump of encouragement is all that's needed.
12) In the event that the government must temporarily close HGA due to a covid spike, I agree to the substitution of virtual gymnastics and/or ninja classes for the remainder of the session in which HGA is closed.
13) I am voluntarily allowing my child(ren) to participate in programs and activities offered by HGA knowing that it is impossible to keep him/her completely safe from exposure to the covid-19 virus. I accept that risk.
14) I acknowledge that failure to answer covid screening questions accurately is possible grounds for dismissal from our program.
