Substance Use:

I, as a participant of the retreat, agree to refrain from the use of alcohol or other recreational drugs during the retreat. The space (Casa Cuadrau) and the retreat company (Salisa Retreats) enforce a strict alcohol-free, smoke-free, and recreational drug-free environment.

Photographs/Videos: 

I, as a participant of the retreat, consent to be the subject of any photographs or audio/video recordings made during my stay by Salisa Retreats or Casa Cuadrau staff (there will be one professional photographer onstaff who will be taking tasteful photos/videos during appropriate moments), and grant permission for these to be published or posted in ways that promote Salisa Retreats, Casa Cuadrau, and/or the instructors’ future retreats. (Otherwise, I can tell the instructors/staff that I do not want to participate, or move to a place in the room that is not being photographed or recorded.)

In order to protect the privacy of others, Salisa Retreats requires that all guests agree not to post or publish any photographs, video or audio recordings of other individuals, or make use of the Salisa Retreats name or logo, without express permission. I understand that I am solely responsible and potentially liable for any harm or damages caused by my online activity relating to Salisa Retreats.

Release of Liability:

I understand that the retreat is a physically and emotionally demanding program. I am responsible for my experience and for my well-being while on the retreat. I agree to support the retreat environment and contribute to a safe, respectful, and positive experience for everyone in-house during my stay.

I understand that the practice of yoga often produces non-ordinary states of awareness, and that program instructors and staff are not responsible for managing every participant’s personal needs. I understand that practicing yoga is often about exploring new boundaries and personal limitations. I recognise that activities of this nature involve an element of physical, emotional, and psychological risk. I understand that each person’s level of physical and psychological comfort is different, and that some activities may not be appropriate for me given my individual boundaries. I accept the need to monitor my own participation in each activity, and each exercise within any given activity, and that Salisa Retreats and the instructors are not responsible for any physical and psychological risk I choose to take in my explorations.

I understand that during the retreat I will be spending time in nature and engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking, swimming, etc., which involve a potential risk.

I understand that my participation is never required if I feel unsafe in any way. It is my responsibility to honour my physical and psychological boundaries, and if I feel unsafe in any way, to stop participation in an experience and speak to a staff member.

I understand that this retreat is taking place in a remote and rustic mountainous location which involves potential hazards, such as contact with insects, wild animals, plants, uneven rocky terrain, and various weather conditions. I understand that there will be limited or no access to certain resources, such as cell service/Wi-Fi, as well as stores, restaurants, or clinics (the nearest big hospital is approximately 1.5 hours away by car, however the retreat center is equipped with first-aid/medical supplies and some staff are first-aid trained). 

After being informed of the above risks and responsibilities, I release Salisa Retreats & the retreat center (Casa Cuadrau), together with its instructors and other representatives, from all claims, causes of action, medical expenses, and other costs related to my guest participation, whether they arise while at the retreat, or from my later use of information or instruction at home.

I accept the above agreements, and I promise to abide by them.
