STAYING SAFE: SOME CONDITIONS OF TAKING PART

You can see the full Terms & Conditions for all Fitness Belfast classes, including Fitness Belfast LIVE & Online classes, here, but here are some (hopefully common sense) highlights:

• Before starting this (or any exercise programme), if you have any concerns about your overall fitness, you should consult your GP (or other medical professional - Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist etc). This is particularly important if you are returning from illness, a break in exercise, if you are pregnant, taking medication, have low or high blood pressure, or have any other existing medical condition or injuries.

• In this programme, as with any exercise programme, if any movement doesn't feel right, take a break and/or skip poses or sequences that are not suitable for you. If you feel dizzy, light-headed, faint, or if you experience any other discomfort, STOP immediately and rest, consulting medical advice if the symptoms don’t pass.

• Make sure you have enough space to move safely and freely without obstacles or obstructions.

• Most episodes include warm ups and cool downs, however some might not. You know your own body – always include extra warm ups and cool downs where needed to avoid injuries.

• If you buy an Online or LIVE programme, you’ll have agreed to use it responsibly and fairly, and that includes not sharing it with others who will not have had the opportunity to fully understand it, it’s use, and agree to the terms & conditions.

• By performing any fitness exercises without supervision, you are performing them at your own risk, and you acknowledge that Fitness Belfast will not be responsible or liable for any injury or harm you sustain as a result of this video.
