Assumption of Risk / Release / Covenant NOT TO SUE and Indemnification 

I acknowledge that the martial arts constitutes a HAZARDOUS RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY which carries with it significant RISK of damage or PERSONAL INJURY, or DEATH to any person or property. Such hazards include cuts, abrasions, fractures, and trauma to any part of the human anatomy including head, back, neck and spinal cord. These injuries may occur as a result of falls, strikes, kicks, punches, equipment failure, bad decision making, negligent or inattentive fellow participants, instructors, or assistant instructors.  I understand that this is not a complete description of all risks inherent in my (or my child(ren)’s) participation in the martial arts, and that other unknown or unforeseeable hazards and risks of harm may occur.  

With this in mind, I accept full responsibility for my own safety, as well as for the safety of my minor child(ren), and EXPRESSLY ASSUME ALL RISKS OF HARM, whether foreseen or unforeseen, and whether occurring while in the studio or at any other location where I or my child(ren) are engaged in martial arts as part of the Organizations’ function.  I hereby RELEASE and agree to INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS the Organizations, its shareholders, officers, employees, agents, instructors, patrons and participants, and insurers (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Released Parties”), from and against any liability, demand, claim, or right of action for any damage or injury, including paralysis or death, to any person or property, even if such damage or personal injury results from the NEGLIGENCE of the Organizations or other Released Parties.  I further COVENANT NOT TO SUE or make any demand or claim against the Organizations or other Released Parties, for or by reason of any such damage or personal injury from my participation in martial arts related activities anywhere and at any time. I will pay all fees, damages, and costs, including attorney’s fees, the Organizations or other Released Parties may incur in the enforcement of this Application Agreement.    

If I am a PARENT or GUARDIAN of any minor person under 18 years of age participating in the martial arts activities connected to the Organizations, I make these representations and agree to the terms of Application Agreement on behalf of each minor, as well as myself, and I agree to assume responsibility for their safety. I further agree to INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS the Organizations, and the other Released Parties, from and against any demand, claim, right of action or suit that may be brought on behalf of any such minor arising from all martial arts related activities related to the Organizations, or anywhere, at any time. I will pay all fees, damages, and costs, including attorney’s fees, the Organizations or other Released Parties may incur in the enforcement of this Agreement.  I am physically fit and know of no medical or health reason why I or my minor child(ren) should not participate in this activity.  I intend this Agreement to bind me and my family, my assigns, estate, heirs, and personal representatives.  This Agreement is severable and shall be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State Nevada, with venue in Clark County.  

Arbitration

For any dispute you have with the Organizations, you agree to first contact Believing Through Achieving and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that Believing Through Achieving has not been able to resolve a dispute within 30 days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms, or breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration. Unless you and Believing Through Achieving decide otherwise, arbitration will be conducted in Clark County, Nevada. If your claim is for $10,000 U.S. Dollars or less, Believing Through Achieving agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the arbitration rules.  Each party will be responsible for paying any filing, administrative and arbitrator fees. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for experts and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief from the courts for matters related to intellectual property rights or unauthorized access to the Service. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND BELIEVING THROUGH ACHIEVING ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to any conflict of laws, rules, or principles.

Complete Agreement

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding the Platform and supersede and replace any prior agreements we might have between us regarding the Platform.

Severability

If any provision of this is Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated except as mandated by ruling.

  

I have carefully read this document and fully understand its contents, which I adopt as a completely integrated and exclusive statement of the entire terms of agreement.
