Terms and Conditions
I wish to participate in the exercise, nutrition, fitness, and training program offered by Northwest Personal Training (NWPT). I understand there are inherent risks in participating in a program of strenuous exercise including serious injury and I understand that NWPT strongly encourages me to obtain a physical examination and approval from a doctor before using any exercise equipment or participating in any exercise activity. I understand and agree that it is my responsibility to inform all employees of any conditions or changes in my health, now and ongoing, which may affect my ability to exercise safely and with minimal risk of injury. I agree that if I engage in any physical exercise or activity or use any club amenity on the premises or off premises including any sponsored NWPT event, I do so entirely at my own risk. Likewise, dietary modifications can cause a variety of changes and can create problems relating to energy, health, appetite, and mood. I understand that any changes in diet including the use of food supplements, weight reduction and/or performance enhancement products are done entirely at my own risk and I understand that I should consult with a physician prior to undergoing any dietary or food supplement changes. I agree that I am voluntarily participating in these activities and use of these facilities and premises and assume all risks of injury, illness, or death. I understand that NWPT is not responsible for any loss of personal property.
This waiver and release of liability includes, without limitation, all injuries which may occur, regardless of negligence, as a result of: (a) use of all amenities and equipment in the facility and participation in any activity, class, program, personal training or instruction whether at home, at the training studio, outdoors or at a corporate, commercial, residential or other fitness facility; (b) the sudden and unforeseen malfunctioning of any equipment; (c) NWPT instruction, training, supervision, or dietary recommendations; or (d) slipping and/or falling while in the fitness & training studio or on the premises, including adjacent sidewalks and parking areas. This also includes any negligence associated with the presence of or transmission of any bacteria, viruses, or infectious diseases.
I have read and consent to the NWPT COVID-19 Reopening protocol detailed here:

I understand that NWPT and McMillan Active Group, Inc. will make every reasonable effort to preserve the privacy of the health information contained in our Client Information Questionnaire and/or any other documents. I further agree that NWPT and McMillan Active Group, Inc shall not be liable or responsible to me for any inadvertent disclosure of the health information contained in the Client Information Questionnaire and/or any other documents.
I understand the results of any fitness program cannot be guaranteed and my progress depends on my effort and cooperation in and outside of the sessions.
I understand that all Private Personal Training rates are based on 25, 55, or 85-minute sessions and should I arrive late, I will not receive the full session with my trainer. Likewise, if my Personal Trainer is late for a session, I will still receive the full session time.
I understand that NWPT bills its Personal Training clients on a pre-pay basis. Once my trainer and I have decided upon the type of training package and payment plan I will purchase, payment must be made before the sessions are conducted. Credit cards, cash, and checks made payable to NWPT are all accepted. I understand that all Personal Training sessions are non- transferable and non-refundable. I also understand that all Private Personal Training sessions must be redeemed within one year of purchase.
I understand that NWPT operates on a pre-scheduled appointment basis for all sessions and thus requires that I provide 24 hours’ notice when canceling an appointment. No charge will be levied should I cancel with MORE than 24 hours’ notice. Should I cancel a session with LESS than 24 hours’ prior notice, I will be charged in full for that session. It is recommended that all cancelled sessions be rescheduled to ensure consistency and progress.
I understand that during a Personal Training or Group Training session, my trainer/instructor may have to touch my muscles or joints to correct alignment and/or to focus my concentration on a muscle area to be targeted. If I feel uncomfortable or experience any type of discomfort with this form of touch, I will immediately request that it be discontinued.
I understand that should my Personal Trainer become ill or is away on holiday, another trainer will be assigned to me so that my fitness progress and consistency does not suffer. I also understand that if my Personal Trainer is no longer employed by NWPT, a suitable Personal Trainer will be re-assigned to oversee my program and workout sessions.
I understand that NWPT photographs and films many of their client events/sessions and I provide NWPT the absolute right and permission to use these pictures/images for any lawful promotional, advertising or marketing purpose.
By signing below, I acknowledge that I have carefully read this ""waiver and release"" and fully understand that it is a release of liability. I expressly release and discharge NWPT, McMillan Active Group Inc., its owners, employees, agents, representatives, successors and/or assigns from any and all claims, actions, judgments and the like which I or my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns may have or claim to have as a result of any injury or any other damage which may occur in connection with my participation in a NWPT fitness program. I agree to voluntarily give up or waive any right that I may otherwise have to bring a legal action against the NWPT for negligence, personal injury or property damage. I also agree that this waiver and release also applies to any guests or other participants I bring to NWPT or a NWPT sponsored program/event. Should any such persons bring negligence, personal injury, or property damage claims against NWPT, I agree to defend and indemnify NWPT and hold NWPT harmless against any such claims.
I further agree that if a court of law finds any part of this agreement to be against public policy or in violation of any state statute or legal precedent, then the remainder of this document will remain in full force.
I have read this Release and Terms of Agreement and I understand all of its terms. I sign it voluntarily and with full knowledge of its significance.
