Studio Environment Acknowledgment:

GEM Pilates operates in a home-based studio that includes the presence of cats and dogs.

I accept the risks associated with this environment and waive any claims related to allergic or physical responses.

By signing below:

I release and discharge GEM Pilates and Jennifer Salyer from any claims, demands, or causes of action for injuries or damages arising from my participation, unless due to gross negligence.
