A legal disclaimer

Terms & Conditions 

Effective Date: 22/08/2025

Welcome to Earth and Ember. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of our website and participation in our yoga classes.

By accessing this website or enrolling in our classes, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 14 years old to use our services. If you are under 18, you may participate only with parental or guardian consent.

2. Health Disclaimer

  • Yoga involves physical activity. By participating, you affirm that you are physically fit and capable of engaging in such activity.

  • Always consult your physician before starting any exercise program.

  • Participation is at your own risk. We are not liable for any injuries or health issues that may arise.

  • Pregnancy and Prenatal Participation - please see terms below.

  • Disclosure of Pregnancy
    Clients who are pregnant, think they may be pregnant, or are undergoing postpartum recovery must inform the instructor before participating in any class. This ensures that any appropriate modifications and precautions can be provided.

  • Medical Clearance
    Pregnant clients must consult their doctor or healthcare provider before attending yoga classes and may be required to provide written medical clearance, especially if participating in non-prenatal-specific classes.

  • Suitable Classes
    We strongly recommend that pregnant clients only attend prenatal yoga or classes approved by their healthcare provider. Participation in general classes is at the client’s own risk and may not be suitable depending on trimester or pregnancy-related conditions.

  • Assumption of Risk
    By attending any yoga class while pregnant, the client acknowledges and accepts the potential risks involved. Earth and Ember and its instructors are not liable for any complications or injuries arising during or after participation.

  • Modifications and Responsibility
    While our instructors can offer general modifications, clients are responsible for listening to their bodies, modifying movements as needed, and stopping any activity that causes discomfort. If unsure, please consult a qualified prenatal instructor.

  • Please note: While yoga is generally considered safe during a healthy pregnancy, every individual is different. If you are in your first trimester and have any concerns or health issues (e.g., previous miscarriage, high-risk pregnancy, IVF conception), we strongly encourage specialist prenatal sessions or medical approval before attending group classes. At present Earth and Ember does not offer pregnancy yoga classes. Please forward any enquiries regards classes to helen@earthandemberyoga.com.
