In consideration of, and as a condition of JKAA accepting me as a Member:

I acknowledge the inherent risks of Karate Training and the possible consequences of serious injury and even fatality. Without limiting this acknowledgement I acknowledge that injury may result due to strenuous exercise or high velocity and high impact movement and that I may suffer unintentional harmful physical contact from technique delivery, evasion or application of counter techniques.

I warrant that I have included in my responses to the medical questionnaire any medical condition or injury that may affect my Karate Training. I warrant that I am medically fit (physically and mentally) to participate in Karate Training (regardless of any condition or injury that I might have referred to in responding to the medical questionnaire) and that I have not been advised otherwise by a medical practitioner. I agree to advise JKAA PRIOR to Karate Training of any change to or additional medical condition or injury that may arise from time to time.

I acknowledge that I may choose NOT to participate in a particular Karate Training activity and that it is my responsibility to inform my JKAA Instructor that I do not wish to participate in that particular activity.

I will inspect the Location and equipment to be used for Karate Training and agree that I will not participate in Karate Training unless I am completely satisfied with the adequacy and condition of the Location and equipment.

I agree that by participating in Karate Training, I do so entirely at My own risk. I agree that I am voluntarily participating in Karate Training and the use of the Location and equipment and assume all risks of injury, illness or even death. I also acknowledge that I am responsible for any loss of or damage to My personal property.

If I suffer illness or injury at Karate Training and am unable to seek help, I authorise a JKAA Instructor to call an ambulance or to seek such other emergency medical treatment as the Instructor believes appropriate.

I (for myself, my heirs, executors and administrators) waive release and discharge JKAA, the JKAA Executive Committee, JKAA Instructors, JKAA members and Officials appointed by JKAA (‘JKAA Persons’) from all claims or causes of action I may have (including for negligence) arising from any injury, loss or damage of any kind I may suffer including personal injury, illness or death and/or loss or damage to any property arising either directly or indirectly out of my attendance at or participation in Karate Training AND I indemnify JKAA and JKAA Persons against all costs, losses or damages arising from or in relation to my attendance at or participation in Karate Training.
