4. Intellectual Property
All class materials, digital content, manuals, recordings, and online modules are the intellectual property of TejaShakti School. Materials are for personal educational use only and may not be copied, reproduced, distributed, or shared without written consent.
5. Health Disclaimer
Yoga, breathwork, meditation, and Ayurveda are complementary wellness practices and not substitutes for licensed medical or mental health treatment. TejaShakti instructors are not medical professionals and do not diagnose, prescribe, or treat physical or psychological conditions.
Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before beginning any new physical or wellness program, especially if you have existing medical conditions or concerns.
6. Assumption of Risk + Waiver of Liability
Yoga and physical movement involve inherent risk. By participating in TejaShakti classes, programs, or retreats, you voluntarily assume all risks related to participation, including injury, illness, or property damage.
You agree to release, indemnify, and hold harmless TejaShakti School, its owners, directors, instructors, and affiliates from any and all claims arising from your participation, whether occurring on-site, online, during travel, or off-site venues.
7. Conduct + Code of Ethics
TejaShakti strives to cultivate an inclusive, respectful learning environment. Discrimination, harassment, or disruptive behavior of any kind will not be tolerated. Violations may lead to termination of participation without refund.
a) Off-Site or Professional Conduct Behavior outside TejaShakti programs that violates these ethical standards—including verbal abuse, harassment, or conduct that publicly defames the School, its teachers, or community members—may result in disciplinary action, suspension, or termination of membership or program participation without refund. This applies especially to individuals who attend or affiliate with the School while representing connected professions (e.g., massage therapists, bodyworkers, or wellness practitioners).
b) Enforcement + Accountability TejaShakti reserves the right to investigate any report of unethical conduct impacting its reputation or community safety. Consequences may include written notice, mediation, expulsion, or revocation of certification and access to online and in-person materials or events.
