Important health and safety advice

As with any form of physical exercise, you are taking part at your own risk, and should only do those activities that you consider safe for your own body and the space in which you are working.

It is important that you understand any existing conditions you may have that may preclude you from doing any of the suggested exercises presented. If in doubt, please consult a medical expert before participating. Please make sure you have read any instructions, carefully taking note of any advice on age appropriateness or any necessary prior experience.

It is your responsibility to make sure that you have a suitable and safe area, free of obstacles, in which to participate. Make sure that the floor surface is suitable to work on and that you have footwear appropriate for that surface. If you are holding onto an object for balance, please make sure that is it extremely stable.

Remember:

• Before you begin, remember that it is vital that you warm up before and cool down after any exercise session.
• If something hurts stop immediately! Every ‘body’ is different, and you should work within your limitations.
• Please take things at your own pace. As this is an online activity, you can pause, stop, and restart whenever you need to.

Make sure that the floor surface is appropriate to work on and that they have footwear appropriate for that surface.
