I represent that I am (i) a parent, legal guardian, or authorized agent (“Parent” for this agreement) of a minor or adult child (“Student”), (ii) age 18 or older at the time of signing this agreement and am registering myself (“Adult Child”), or (iii) an authorized agent of an Adult Child or Parent.  If I am an Adult Child, I agree that I am both a Parent and Student for the purposes of this agreement and that “Student” refers to me and my parent(s). I agree that parental obligations in this agreement apply to and bind both me and my parent(s). If I sign this agreement on behalf of a Parent (either as an Adult Child or as an agent, such as a driver, babysitter, chaperone, or other caretaker), I represent and warrant that (i) the Parent authorized me to act on his or her behalf and to bind Parent to this agreement, (ii) Leighton Dance Project (“LDP” for this agreement) may rely on my representations and warranties below regarding Parent, and (iii) I agree to be personally liable and indemnify and hold LDP harmless against any misrepresentation. 

• By selecting the “I Agree” button, you are signing this Agreement electronically. 
• You agree that your electronic signature is the legal equivalent of your manual signature on this Agreement. 
• By selecting “I Accept,” you consent to be legally bound by this Agreement’s terms and conditions.
• You acknowledge that you may withdraw your consent to use electronic signatures at any time by contacting LDP in writing. LDP reserves the right to require manual signatures in such instances.

MEDICAL RELEASE

I hereby give my permission to LDP, its owners, operators, officers, directors, agents, supervisors, instructors, teachers, administrators, and agents to seek and give appropriate medical attention to Students in the event of an accident, injury, and/or illness. 

In the event of a medical emergency, and if I cannot be reached, I authorize qualified emergency personnel and licensed medical providers to provide care to the Student as medically necessary, in accordance with applicable law. 

I understand that LDP is not a medical provider and will not be liable for the outcome of emergency treatment provided by third-party medical professionals. Student or Parent understands that no medical benefits or services will be provided during any LDP programs and that Student and/or Student’s insurance shall be solely liable to pay for any medical expenses incurred on Student’s behalf. 

PHYSICAL CONDITION

I, the Student, Parent, or Authorized Agent, represent and warrant to LDP that the Student has no physical or psychological problems that would prohibit the Student from participating in the activities at LDP. 

The parent has consulted a personal physician or has taken whatever steps deemed necessary to determine that the Student’s status is of good health with no conditions that might limit participation in activities offered by LDP, including but not limited to dance, acro, gymnastics, tumbling, performing arts, acting, singing, fitness, yoga, and pilates. 

If any such condition arises or changes during the course of the Student’s participation, the Parent agrees to notify LDP in writing as soon as reasonably possible. LDP reserves the right to request a physician’s clearance for continued participation.

I, the Student, Parent, or Authorized Agent, recognize and acknowledge that activities offered by LDP (including but not limited to dance, acro, gymnastics, tumbling, performing arts, acting, singing, fitness, yoga, and pilates), whether in-person, outdoors or via online webcast, are strenuous exercise and vigorous physical activities and that such activities have an inherent risk of physical injury.  Such activities carry inherent risks of injury, including but not limited to minor injuries (such as strains, sprains, bruises) and, in rare cases, serious injury or fatality. As a voluntary participant, Student understands and accepts all of these and other risks associated with participation at LDP, no matter how remote or unlikely.  With respect to outdoor activities, I acknowledge added risks may arise due to environmental exposure (e.g., heat, sun, pavement), street traffic, or third-party hazards. I understand that participation is voluntary and that the Student may withdraw from any activity if feeling unsafe or unwell. I further understand that this acknowledgment of risks does not constitute a waiver of rights otherwise non-waivable under California law.

LDP may, in its sole discretion, teach classes through electronic means. In such instances, LDP will capture its classes on video, audio, and/or still images for broadcast to Students across the internet. 

By participating in such online classes, the Student and/or Parent grants LDP permission to use some or all of the Student’s name, profile information, visual likeness, voice recording, graphics, photographs, or other artwork and any other information (“Materials”) Student and/or Parent provides to LDP or its employees or agents (such as instructors) in one or more of its content, products, and advertising, in any form or format now known or hereafter created, and distributed or made available throughout the world in perpetuity, without notice, compensation to or further approval from Student and/or Parent. 

If the Student and/or Parent do not wish to have their image, name, or likeness recorded or published, a written opt-out request must be submitted prior to participation. While LDP will make reasonable efforts to honor such requests, full privacy cannot be guaranteed during group-based online instruction.

Student and/or Parent understands and agrees that LDP shall be the exclusive owner of its products, content, and advertising, including those containing the Materials, and that Student and/or Parent is not entitled to any remuneration for such use. 

LDP will retain such media in accordance with applicable privacy laws and reserves the right to use anonymized or group-based content unless otherwise prohibited.

I understand and assume the risk involved in outdoor venues with direct or indirect access to street and/or parking lot traffic. Outdoor activities have an increased risk of heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and other heat-related illnesses. It is the Participant’s and/or Participant’s parent/guardian’s responsibility to ensure the Participant is properly hydrated and taking precautions from exposure to the sun, heat, cold, wind, and other environmental factors. 

I understand that outdoor surfaces may result in greater strain on joints and bones than studio floors, and therefore acknowledge an increased risk of physical impact or injury.

I agree to disclose any physical limitations that may be exacerbated by outdoor conditions and understand that LDP is not liable for injuries caused by third-party conditions outside its control.

ON HOLD ACCOUNTS

LDP reserves the right to place an account On Hold when the Student, Parent, any family member or agent, or any child associated with this account breaches this agreement, including violations of LDP’s Anti-Bullying Policy, interferes with LDP’s creative learning environment, damages to LDP property, failure to pay an outstanding balance or for any other reason determined in LDP’s sole discretion.

If a Student or Parent registers a child in violation of this account being On Hold, LDP may undo the registration. Processing fees associated with undone registrations due to account On Hold status may not be refunded.

RIGHT TO USE LIKENESS

I Authorize LDP to allow Students’ images in photos and videos for print publication/advertising and online on web pages and all social media, including live streaming, for promotional and educational purposes. 

If you wish to opt out of media use for your child, you may submit a written opt-out form via the Parent Portal.
