Participation Agreement Summary & Waiver
Before joining any Midlife Shuffle dance and fitness activities, all participants must read and sign our liability waiver. Here's what you need to know:
Understanding the Risks. Dance and fitness activities involve physical movement that can be demanding on your body. While we strive to create a safe and fun environment, these activities do carry inherent risks, including the possibility of injury. By participating, you acknowledge these risks and voluntarily choose to take part in our classes.
Your Responsibilities. You're agreeing that you're physically fit enough to participate and that you're not aware of any medical conditions that would prevent you from safely joining our activities. You're also agreeing not to hold Midlife Shuffle legally responsible if you experience an injury during class, even if it results from our negligence.
What You're Agreeing To. By signing the waiver, you're giving up your right to sue Midlife Shuffle for any injuries or damages that might occur during participation. This is a serious legal agreement, and we encourage you to read the full document carefully and ask any questions you might have before signing.
Required for Participation. This waiver must be signed before your first class and covers all future participation in Midlife Shuffle activities. If you're under 18, a parent or legal guardian must also sign the agreement on your behalf.
Privacy and Consent
Personal Information. We collect and store your personal information as needed for registration and communication purposes. Your data is kept confidential and is not shared with third parties without your consent.
Media Consent. Midlife Shuffle captures photos and videos during workshops and events for use on social media. By participating, you agree to grant us permission to use these images for promotional purposes, unless you explicitly request otherwise. We will try our absolute best to respect your wishes. Note: The "content session" at every workshop is your opportunity to have video footage captured for your social media posts. You are not obligated to participate. Please alert the staff if this is your preference.

Midlife Shuffle reserves the right to terminate your participation if you breach these terms and conditions, engage in inappropriate conduct, or jeopardize the safety and well-being of others.
