Please read this document carefully before booking or attending any class. By booking a class through Momoyoga, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to all sections below.

1. Description of Activities

Classes offered by Junna Mind & Motion are movement-based group and individual sessions. Depending on the session, classes may include any combination of the activity types listed below. Specific class formats — such as Pilates for Runners, Power Pilates, and Restorative Pilates — may draw from the full range of activities described here. Participants are covered for all activity types listed in this section regardless of the specific class they have booked.

Activities include movement and fitness work (Pilates mat and equipment-based exercises, functional and strength training, barre, plyometric and sprinting drills, core, balance, posture, dance-inspired movement, and walking or jogging), flexibility and mobility work (stretching, assisted stretching, yoga-inspired movement, foam rolling, and mobility exercises), and relaxation and mind-body work (breathing exercises, Progressive Muscle Relaxation, somatic and restorative movement, guided meditation and visualisation, nervous system regulation, body scan, and mindfulness-based movement). Classes are delivered as group sessions, private one-on-one sessions, workshops, and outdoor pop-up events.

Classes are taught outdoors (on grass, sand, uneven terrain, pavement, and concrete) and indoors (at partner studios and social spaces) across the Netherlands. Music may be used during classes. Indoor sessions may use candles, essential oils, or scented products during relaxation or restorative sessions.

2. Equipment & Environment

Depending on the session, classes may use fitness and Pilates equipment (mats, resistance bands, soft balls, dumbbells, foam rollers, stability balls, massage balls), yoga and barre props (blocks, straps, chair, wall), and relaxation props (bolsters, blankets, eye pillows, candles, essential oils). Suitable footwear or bare feet may be required depending on the surface and activity type.

3. Inherent Risks

I understand and acknowledge that participation in movement-based classes involves inherent risks during and after participation, including but not limited to:

Physical risks:

•       Muscle soreness, strain, or injury

•       Joint pain or injury

•       Falls, slips, or loss of balance

•       Cardiovascular exertion, including risks associated with pre-existing cardiovascular conditions

•       Dizziness, fatigue, or breathlessness

•       Muscle fatigue from strength or HIIT-based exercises

•       Impact-related risks during plyometric or sprinting exercises

•       Slipping or tripping on uneven terrain, pavement, or concrete during outdoor classes

•       Tripping or falling in dimly lit indoor environments

•       Heat exhaustion or heat-related illness during outdoor classes in warm weather or in warm studio environments

•       Cold-related discomfort or risk during outdoor classes in cold weather, particularly during still or floor-based activities

•       Allergic or respiratory reactions to essential oils, scented diffusers, candles, or outdoor allergens such as pollen, grass, or insects

•       Skin reactions from contact with essential oils if used in hands-on work

•       Burns or fire hazard from candles in indoor environments

•       Contact with equipment

Mind-body & neurological risks:

•       Emotional or physical responses triggered by relaxation, breathing exercises, stress release exercises, somatic techniques, or Progressive Muscle Relaxation — including in individuals with a trauma history

•       Seizures or epileptic episodes triggered by intensive breathing exercises or hyperventilation in individuals with epilepsy or a history of seizures

•       Dizziness or light-headedness from breathing exercises

In rare and extreme cases, participation in physical exercise may result in serious injury requiring medical treatment, pain and suffering, permanent disability, a significant change in quality of life, or death.

These risks exist even when the instructor takes all reasonable professional precautions and instructions are followed correctly.

4. Hands-On Guidance & Touch

The instructor may use hands-on guidance during classes for technique corrections, alignment, assisted stretching, and light grounding or calming touch during somatic and relaxation exercises. By agreeing to this waiver, participants consent to this contact. Participants may decline at any time by informing the instructor verbally — this will always be respected without question. In a medical emergency, the instructor may administer basic first aid regardless of this preference.

5. Voluntary Participation

I confirm that my participation in classes offered by Junna Mind & Motion is entirely voluntary. I am not required or obligated by any third party to participate. I freely choose to take part in movement-based classes and accept the risks associated with doing so.

6. Health Declaration

I confirm that:

•       I am at least 18 years of age.

•       I am aware that some activities may not be suitable during pregnancy and will inform the instructor before class if relevant, so that appropriate modifications can be offered.

•       I do not have any known medical condition, injury, or physical limitation that would make participation unsafe, OR I have consulted a qualified medical professional or physiotherapist who has confirmed that participation is safe for me.

•       I do not have any known cardiovascular condition that would make participation in movement-based classes unsafe, OR I have consulted a qualified medical professional who has confirmed that participation is safe for me.

•       I do not have epilepsy or a history of seizures that could be triggered by breathing exercises, OR I have consulted a qualified medical professional who has confirmed that participation is safe for me.

•       I do not have hypermobility or joint instability that would make participation unsafe without modification, OR I have informed the instructor and will follow appropriate modifications.

•       I am not taking any medication that significantly affects my balance, heart rate, heat tolerance, or physical capacity in a way that would make participation unsafe, OR I have consulted a qualified medical professional who has confirmed that participation is safe for me.

•       I do not have any psychological condition, mental health difficulty, or trauma history that would make participation unsafe, OR I have consulted a qualified mental health professional who has confirmed that participation — including relaxation, somatic, stress release, and Progressive Muscle Relaxation exercises — is safe for me. I acknowledge personal responsibility for assessing my own suitability for mind-body and stress release activities. This acknowledgement does not affect the protections set out in Sections 7.3 and 7.4 of this waiver.

•       I understand it is my responsibility to stop exercising and inform the instructor immediately if I feel unwell, dizzy, experience pain, or feel unable to continue safely during class.

•       I understand that the instructor may offer modifications and that it is my responsibility to choose modifications appropriate for my fitness level and physical condition.

•       I will inform the instructor before class of any recent injuries, conditions, physical or mental health changes, allergies, or limitations that may be relevant to my participation.
