1. Participation in activities involving the outdoors and animals involve risk of injury. Activities with horses are deemed a ‘significant high risk’ activity by our community and legal system.

2. Horses have different temperaments and natures. All horses are potentially unpredictable, especially if frightened, hurt or mistreated. Horses have the potential to kick or bite people. Although all due care is taken to ‘match’ the horses to the experience and feelings of clients, horses do explore their ‘environments’ with their bodies, and all care should be taken with the horses to respect their personal space..

3. Participation in activities involving Natural Movement and Martial Arts involve risk of injury.

12. I agree to follow the directions of the staff and that any misconduct or refusal by me to follow any direction of the staff can result in exclusion from participation in the activities and immediate removal from training.
