LIABILITY RELEASE, WAIVER, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE

(Required for Anyone Entering or Stepping on the Mats)

​

This is a legally binding Liability Release, Waiver, Discharge, and Covenant Not to Sue (the “Release”), made by me, the undersigned, in favor of Electric Jiu Jitsu LLC (the “Club”), its owners, officers, agents, employees, instructors (the “Instructors”), the landlord of the premises (the “Landlord”), and all members, guests, and participants of the Club (the “Members”).

This Release applies to any person who enters, steps on, or uses the training mats, including but not limited to members, trial participants, drop-in students, guests, visitors, spectators, parents, non-members, and any other individual, whether or not they actively participate in training.

​

I fully recognize and understand that entering the mats and participating in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or related activities involves inherent dangers and risks. Jiu-jitsu is a martial art that involves strenuous physical activity and extensive physical contact with other individuals and the training surface, including but not limited to joint locks, throws, chokes, takedowns, ground fighting, strikes, drilling, conditioning, and other related activities.

​

I acknowledge and understand that fitness, sports, and martial arts activities involve vigorous exercise and physical exertion and may result in injury, including but not limited to: minor injuries such as scrapes, strains, and bruises; serious injuries such as eye injury or loss, concussions, broken bones, torn muscles or ligaments, paralysis, heart attack, stroke, or death; injuries arising from the use or misuse of equipment; injuries resulting from supervised or unsupervised activities; and accidental injuries occurring within or outside the facility.

With full knowledge and understanding of these risks, I voluntarily choose to enter the mats and, if applicable, participate in training or related activities.

​

I knowingly and voluntarily assume all risks, known and unknown, associated with entering the mats and participating in or observing activities. In consideration for being permitted to enter the mats or facility, I hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue the Club, its owners, agents, employees, Instructors, the Landlord, and the Members from any and all liability, claims, demands, or causes of action arising out of or related to any injury, illness, death, or property damage that I may suffer.

​

This Release applies to claims caused in whole or in part by the negligence, mistake, failure to supervise, or other acts or omissions of the Club, its agents, the Instructors, the Landlord, or the Members, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

​

I understand that by signing this Release, I am giving up important legal rights, including the right to sue. This Release applies to this visit and all future visits and is binding upon me and my heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, and assigns.

I further agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Electric Jiu Jitsu LLC from any claims, demands, damages, or actions brought by me or by any third party arising out of or related to my entry onto the mats, my participation, conduct, injuries, medical conditions, actions, or failure to act.

​

By signing below, I acknowledge that I have read this entire Release, fully understand its contents, and voluntarily agree to be bound by it.

​

I UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE, I AM GIVING UP LEGAL RIGHTS OR REMEDIES THAT OTHERWISE WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO ME.
