I acknowledge that activities including pole dance, aerial arts, floorwork, and movement practices involve inherent risks, including but not limited to slips, falls, strains, fractures, collisions, and equipment failure. I knowingly and voluntarily assume all risks, whether known or unknown, related to my participation and presence at the Studio.

Release of Liability (Including Negligence)

To the fullest extent permitted by Illinois law, I hereby release, waive, discharge, and agree not to sue Indigo Studios, its owners, employees, instructors, contractors, volunteers, and agents from any and all claims or liabilities, including those arising from ordinary negligence, related to my participation in a private studio rental or my presence on the premises.

Medical Acknowledgment

I represent that I am physically and mentally capable of participating in movement-based activities and have no condition that would prevent safe participation. I agree to stop immediately if I experience pain, dizziness, or discomfort.

Studio Use & Policies

Occupancy: Studio use is limited to the number of participants included in the booking. Additional attendees are not permitted without prior approval.
