MyYogaTeacher operates an online service through its website with a homepage at https://myyogateacher.com/, its subdomains and/or other websites (the “,Website”), and the MyYogaTeacher mobile software application and such other mobile or desktop applications designated by MyYogaTeacher for use with the service from time to time (the “App”), including all features, content, tools, applications, graphics, information, and other tools and services included on the Website or App, and including certain virtual classes that may be made available by MyYogaTeacher via third party vendors (such as Zoom or such other video conferencing platforms or services as MyYogaTeacher may elect to use from time to time) (collectively, the “Service”), which Service provides individual users (“Students”) and Employee Users (as defined below) the ability to connect with professional yoga teachers (“Teachers”) to obtain both group and personalized yoga instruction and training (“Trainings”). The scope of your access to the Service and any associated Trainings may be determined or otherwise limited by the terms of any applicable membership plan selected and purchased by you electronically through the Website or App (a “Membership Plan”) or, if you are an Employee User, by the Membership Plan purchased by the applicable Enterprise Purchaser (as defined below). We may modify, terminate, or replace, in whole or in part, the Service or any aspect thereof (including any classes offered through the Service) or any Membership Plan from time to time in our sole discretion and without prior notice. You should carefully review the scope and limitations of any Membership Plan prior to purchase. Certain services such as workshops or one off sessions are available for purchase outside of a Membership Plan
“You” as used herein means the natural person or entity that has agreed to be bound by this Agreement, including, without limitation and as may be dictated by context, (i) Students, (ii) Teachers, and (iii) enterprises that purchase or otherwise register for access to the Service (an “Enterprise Purchaser”) on behalf of or for the benefit of that enterprise’s employees or representatives (each, an “Employee User”).
If you are a Teacher hereunder, you acknowledge that you have also entered into a separate Consultancy Services Agreement or similar agreement with MyYogaTeacher governing your engagement by MyYogaTeacher as a yoga instructor (the “Teacher Agreement”). In addition to all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, you shall continue to be bound by and shall comply with all terms and conditions of your Teacher Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of these Terms and the terms of your Teacher Agreement, the terms of your Teacher Agreement shall govern, but only to the extent of the conflict.
MyYogaTeacher reserves the right to modify or change this Agreement and its terms, as well as any fees and other amounts charged for the Service, at any time and in its sole discretion. Any modifications or changes will be effective immediately upon posting on the App and the Website, unless otherwise specified in the updated Agreement.

If you do not agree with any modification or change to this Agreement, your sole recourse shall be to cease all use of the Website, the App, and the Service. You should review these Terms and the Privacy Policy frequently and ensure you understand all terms, conditions, and policies applicable to your access to and use of the App, the Website, and the Service.
Please also note that these Terms may be superseded by expressly-designated legal notices or terms located on particular pages of the Website or the App. These expressly-designated legal notices or terms are incorporated into these Terms and supersede the provision(s) of these Terms in the event of any conflict.
IN ADDITION, WE MAY NEED TO UPDATE THE APP FROM TIME TO TIME. BY DOWNLOADING THE APP, YOU AGREE THAT WE CAN NOTIFY YOU AND SEND SUCH UPDATES TO YOUR MOBILE DEVICE.
You understand and acknowledge that your use of the Service (or, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, your Employee Users’ use), including any participation in any Training, may involve vigorous physical exercise and activity that carries a risk of, and could result in, injury to you (or, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, to your Employee Users). Some of these risks cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you recognize and acknowledge, on your own behalf and, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, on behalf of your Employee Users, that strenuous physical activity such as yoga, including where practiced in connection with a Training, may increase the risk of various potential injuries, including but not limited to (i) minor injuries such as scratches, bruises, and sprains; (ii) major injuries such as joint or back injuries, heart attacks, rhabdomyolysis, seizures and concussions; and (iii) catastrophic injuries including paralysis and death. All Teachers, Students, and Employee Users should seek the advice of a physician prior to beginning any physical exercise program, including PARTICIPATING IN any Training. Do not participate in any Training if you have any physical or medical condition that would prevent you from participating in the Training or that creates a risk of injury to you. As between MyYogaTeacher and any participant in a Training, the participant is solely responsible for determining the appropriateness of any Training to the participant’s physical capabilities. If you, as a participant, feel that any Training (or any portion thereof) is not safe, is not appropriate to your skill level and fitness capabilities, or otherwise poses a risk of harm to you, please do not participate in the Training. If you experience faintness, dizziness, pain or shortness of breath at any time while participating in any Training, you should stop immediately. IF YOU ARE IN THE UNITED STATES AND THINK YOU ARE HAVING A MEDICAL OR HEALTH EMERGENCY, CALL YOUR HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL OR 911 IMMEDIATELY. You acknowledge and agree, on your own behalf and, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, on behalf of your Employee Users, that any instruction or directions provided by a Teacher during a Training (including, without limitation, any poses or movements) are optional and provided by way of suggestion only, that such instruction and directions do not constitute health advice, and that if any participant follows any such instruction or directions, the participant does so at the participant’s own election and at the participant’s own risk. THE SERVICE MAY OFFER, THROUGH YOUR PARTICIPATION IN TRAININGS OR OTHERWISE, GENERAL HEALTH AND FITNESS INFORMATION WHICH IS DESIGNED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. NOTHING STATED OR POSTED ON THE APP OR WEBSITE, STATED BY ANY TEACHER, OR OTHERWISE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE IS INTENDED TO BE, AND MUST NOT BE TAKEN TO BE, THE PRACTICE OF MEDICAL OR PROFESSIONAL CARE. YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON ANY INFORMATION AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICE AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR, NOR DOES IT REPLACE, PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR HEALTH, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CONSULT A PHYSICIAN OR OTHER HEALTH-CARE PROFESSIONAL. DO NOT EVER DISREGARD, AVOID OR DELAY OBTAINING MEDICAL OR HEALTH RELATED ADVICE FROM YOUR HEALTH-CARE PROFESSIONAL BECAUSE OF SOMETHING YOU MAY HAVE READ ON THE SITE OR RECEIVE VIA THE SERVICE. THE USE OF ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE SERVICE IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK
You shall comply (and if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, you shall require that your Employee Users comply) at all times with any safety rules and guidelines given by MyYogaTeacher or an applicable Teacher. If you are a participant in a Training, you should share with your Teacher details relating to your level of fitness and any medical conditions or physical limitations that may impact your ability to participate in any Training. If MyYogaTeacher or any Teacher determines, in its sole discretion and subjective opinion, that your participation in any Training or other use of the Service may pose a risk of physical harm to you, we may deny you access to the Training or Service until you furnish to us an opinion letter from a licensed physician, obtained at your sole cost and expense, confirming your physical fitness to undertake the Training and Service and addressing any specific health or safety concerns raised by MyYogaTeacher or your Teacher. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, you understand and acknowledge, on your own behalf and, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, on behalf of your Employee Users, that any permission granted to you (or any Employee User) to access the Service and any Training does not constitute an endorsement by MyYogaTeacher of your (or any Employee User’s) fitness to participate in the Service or any Training and should not be interpreted as indicating an absence of risk.
By accessing or using the Service in any manner, including, without limitation, by purchasing access to and/or attending or viewing any class, event, activity, or other Training (or, if you are an enterprise purchaser, by permitting your employee users to do ANY OF THE FOREGOING), you hereby acknowledge on behalf of yourself, your heirs, personal representatives and/or assigns AND, IF YOUR ARE AN ENTERPRISE PURCHASER, ON BEHALF OF YOUR EMPLOYEE USERS, that there are certain inherent risks and dangers in participating in yoga, the TraininGS, and Service.

IF YOU ARE AN ENTERPRISE PURCHASER, YOU UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, AS BETWEEN YOU AND MyYogaTeacher, YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE AND LIABLE FOR ANY ACCESS TO OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICE, INCLUDING ANY TRAINING, BY ANY EMPLOYEE USER, AND FOR ENSURING THAT ANY SUCH EMPLOYEE USER IS AWARE OF ALL RELEVANT TERMS, CONDITIONS, RESTRICTIONS, AND RISKS SET FORTH OR DISCLOSED HEREUNDER.

YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP PLAN BEFORE IT RENEWS FOR A RENEWAL MEMBERSHIP PERIOD IN ORDER TO AVOID BILLING OF MEMBERSHIP FEES FOR THE RENEWAL MEMBERSHIP PERIOD TO YOUR PAYMENT METHOD.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties, so some of the exclusions and/or limitations in this Section may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold MyYogaTeacher and its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, awards, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or resulting from (a) your (or if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, any Employee User’s) access to and use of the Service, the App, or the Website, or your (or if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, any Employee User’s) participation in any Training; (b) your violation (and if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, any Employee User’s violation) of these Terms or of any applicable law, rule, or regulation; (c) your negligence or willful misconduct; (d) any User Submission posted or uploaded to, or otherwise made available through, the Service; and (e) if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, any act, omission, or User Submission posted or uploaded by, any Employee User.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL MyYogaTeacher OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, TEACHERS, AGENTS, LICENSORS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR (OR, IF YOU ARE AN ENTERPRISE PURCHASER, YOUR EMPLOYEE USERS’) ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE APP, THE WEBSITE, OR THE SERVICE (INCLUDING ANY TRAINING), INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF PROPERTY, OR PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE.

If you are not satisfied with the App, the Website, or the Service (including any Trainings), your sole and exclusive remedy is to cancel your Membership Plan, if any, and cease all access to and use of the App, the Website, and the Service
Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages or other damages or liability, so the foregoing limitations may not apply to you. To the extent that in a particular circumstance any limitation on damages or liability set forth in this Section is prohibited by applicable law, then, instead of the provisions hereof in such particular circumstance, MyYogaTeacher shall be entitled to the maximum limitations on damages and liability available at law and equity in that particular circumstance.
You and MyYogaTeacher understand and agree that the disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations in this Section and in the Section entitled “Disclaimers of Warranty” above are essential elements of this Agreement and that they represent a reasonable allocation of risk. In particular, you understand that MyYogaTeacher would be unable to make the App, the Website, or the Service available to you except on these terms and agree that this Agreement will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in this Agreement is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
Any DMCA Takedown Notice should be sent to: contact@myyogateacher.com. You acknowledge that for MyYogaTeacher to be authorized to takedown any content, your DMCA Takedown Notice must comply with all of the requirements of this Section.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate the Account or access of any user of the Service who is the subject of repeated DMCA or other infringement notifications.
We control and operate the Service from our headquarters in the United States of America and some or all of the Service may not be appropriate or available for use in other locations. If you (or, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, any of your Employee Users) use the Service outside the United States of America, you are solely responsible for following applicable local laws.
Neither the App, the Website, the Service, nor their respective underlying technologies may be downloaded to or exported or re-exported: (i) into (or to a resident or national of) any country subject to United States embargo; (ii) to anyone on the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or on the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Party or Entity List; and (iii) to any prohibited country, person, end-user, or entity specified by U.S. export laws. When using the App, the Website, or the Service, (and, if you are an Enterprise Purchaser, when you allow any Employee User to do the same) you are responsible for complying with trade regulations and both foreign and domestic laws (e.g., you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and you are not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties).
Please read this Section carefully. It impacts the rights that you may otherwise have. It provides for resolution of most disputes through individual arbitration instead of trial courts and class actions. This “Arbitration; Jury Waiver; Class Action Waiver” section survives any expiration or earlier termination of these Terms.
You and we agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and us arising in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement or the Service will be determined by binding individual (not class) arbitration. You and we further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity of this provision or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award any relief, including declaratory or injunctive relief, benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration.
You and we both agree that nothing in this arbitration provision (“Arbitration Provision”) will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (1) bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court, or (2) bring an individual action seeking only temporary or preliminary individualized injunctive relief in a court of law, pending a final ruling from the arbitrator. In addition, this Arbitration Provision doesn’t stop you or us from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf (or vice versa).
YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Unless both you and we agree, no arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.
Any arbitration between you and MyYogaTeacher will take place under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in force (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You and MyYogaTeacher agree that the Federal Arbitration Act applies and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision (despite any choice of law provision). The AAA Rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. In accordance with the AAA Rules, you must also send a copy of your written demand for arbitration to AAA when submitting your request to MyYogaTeacher. In the event that the AAA is unable or unwilling to initiate arbitration within 14 days of receiving a demand for arbitration, arbitration may be conducted by JAMS, Inc. (in accordance with its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures) or by any other mutually agreeable arbitration administration service.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county of your residence address, provided that (a) we may request the hearings be transferred to San Francisco, California if we pay any additional cost you may incur as result or such transfer, and (b) if the claim is for $25,000 or less, you or MyYogaTeacher may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; or (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing.
If you choose to file an arbitration proceeding and you are required to pay a filing fee, we will reimburse you for that filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US $10,000, in which case you will be responsible for the filing fee. We will pay any other arbitration fees, including your share of arbitrator compensation, unless otherwise required by AAA rules or court order. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
If this arbitration provision is invalidated in whole or in part, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in the Governing Law and Venue Section, below, shall govern any claim in court arising out of or related to the Terms or the Service.
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM ACCRUES, OTHERWISE SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
Service Availability
You agree and acknowledge that the App, the Website, and/or the Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance or other development activities. MyYogaTeacher will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with advance notice of any such unavailability, but shall not have any liability to you or any other party for any planned or unplanned unavailability or downtime.
Force Majeure
We will not be liable for any delay or failure in the performance of our obligations under these Terms if the delay or failure is due to any cause outside of our reasonable control.
Assignment
You may not assign or transfer any rights to any other person without MyYogaTeacher’s prior written consent. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph is void and of no effect. This Agreement shall be binding on the parties and their permitted successors and assigns. Except as expressly set forth herein, a person who is not a party to these Terms has no right to benefit under or to enforce any term of these Terms.
Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or related to these Terms, their subject matter, or their formation (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, other than such laws and case law that would result in the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of California. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall have no applicability. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California.
Notices
Except as otherwise set forth herein, any notice given under these Terms by any party to another party must be in writing and sent by email, and will be deemed to have been given upon transmission. Notices to MyYogaTeacher must be sent to contact@myyogateacher.com. Notices to you will be sent to any email address associated with your Account.
Severability and Waiver
If any part or provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, or in conflict with the law, that part or provision shall be replaced with a provision which, as far as possible, accomplishes the original purpose of that part or provision, and the remainder of these Terms will continue in full force and effect. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If we waive any breach of these Terms, such waiver will not constitute a waiver of any other breach. No waiver will be effective unless made in writing.
Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and, if you are a Teacher, your Teacher Agreement, constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and MyYogaTeacher with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede and extinguish all prior agreements, representations (whether oral or written), and understandings regarding such subject matter. Any provision of these Terms that should, by their nature, survive termination of these Terms shall so survive termination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following Sections shall survive any termination of these Terms: “Assumption of Risk; Release”; “Your Submissions”; “Content from other Users”; “Content Transmitted through the Service”; “Restrictions”; “Accessibility”; “Privacy”; “Intellectual Property”; “Third Party Applications”; “Disclaimer of Warranties”; “Indemnity”; “Limitation of Liability”; “Arbitration; Jury Waiver; Class Action Waiver”; and “General”.
If you have any questions about these Terms or otherwise need to contact us for any reason, you can reach us at contact@myyogateacher.com. You may report a complaint, if you are a resident of California, to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services at the California Department of Consumer Affairs by telephone at (800) 952-5210 or by mail at 400 R Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, United States.
