HIIT Nation Aus

WAIVER FORM:

Waiver Information:

Nature of the Activity: HIIT Nation Aus is a recreation facility which offers clients the opportunity to participate in a number of recreational activities designed for fun and fitness. Activities include manoeuvring one’s body by climbing, jumping, swinging, hanging, balancing, and other tasks designed to increase the strength, endurance, general fitness, and confidence of the participant. HIIT Nation Aus activities include running up the warped wall, swinging from ropes, rings and cannon balls, trampoline, gymnastics style tumbling, ring slider, quintuple steps, balance beams, and many more. Other activities available at HIIT Nation Aus include parties, classes, competitions, school holiday programs, and special events. However, while there are many benefits associated with these activities, HIIT Nation Aus feels it is important that the PARTICIPANT/PARENT (which refers to either an ADULT Participant, OR a MINOR Participant and PARENTS/LEGAL GUARDIANS) knows that HIIT Nation Aus activities range from moderate to strenuous. Consequently, HIIT Nation Aus activities, like all physical activities, involve some risks of injury that are inherent to the activity. Some of the inherent risks of the HIIT Nation Aus activities include, but are not limited to falls (even on padded surfaces), collisions with other participants or with stationary objects, landing wrong on leaps or jumps, landing on another participant, over-exertion, attempting actions or manoeuvres that are beyond a participant’s capacity, landing on a hard surface, slips and falls within the activity area or in other parts of the facility, unexpected failure of the equipment, and shifts in padding. Other inherent  risks include erratic or careless behaviour of the participant, erratic or careless behaviour of other participants, supervisory or judgment error by HIIT Nation Aus staff (e.g., supervisor misjudging the capacity of the participant to perform a task; failure to spot a hazard during facilityinspection). Furthermore HIIT Nation Aus feels that it is important that the PARTICIPANT/PARENT understands that minimal, serious and catastrophic injuries can occur in any physical activity. While it is impossible to eliminate all risk and possibility of injury, HIIT Nation Aus, 1) has designed the facility with safety as a prime concern; 2) provides padding of floors and many stationary objects; 2) has trained supervisors on duty; 3) provides general supervision of activities; 4) provides instruction and emphasizes safe skill progressions.
