This template is a waiver document that Pilates instructors or online class providers can use to inform clients of the risks associated with online Pilates classes and release the instructor from liability in case of injury or other issues.

This waiver can be used by Pilates instructors, studio owners, and fitness professionals offering online Pilates classes. It is ideal for any business seeking legal protection and clear communication of risks to clients participating in physical activities online.

Yes, having a Pilates Waiver is essential if you’re offering online classes. Without direct supervision, clients may perform exercises incorrectly or push beyond their physical limits, increasing the risk of injury. This waiver protects your business by ensuring clients accept those risks before participating.

The waiver covers the risks associated with online Pilates, including the physical demands of the exercise, the need for medical clearance when necessary, the responsibility of participants to follow instructions, and a release of liability for injuries or damages that may occur.

No, this template is specifically designed for online classes only. If you need a waiver for in-person classes, we have a separate template available here.

You must customise the template with your business name and ABN. Once completed, integrate it into your registration or booking system to ensure clients acknowledge and accept the terms before booking and paying for your online classes.

While this waiver is drafted for Australian law, it can serve as a general guide. However, it’s important to seek legal advice in your country to ensure it complies with local regulations.

Yes, once clients agree to the terms of the waiver (usually via a checkbox during the online booking process), it becomes legally binding and can offer legal protection to your business.

The template is provided as a Microsoft Word document (.docx) so you can easily customise it for your business and integrate it into your online booking or client registration process.
