IMPORTANT: THIS IS AN UNSTAFFED FACILITY. IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE EXERCISING ALONE OR WITHOUT ON-SITE SUPERVISION, DO NOT SIGN THIS AGREEMENT.
In consideration of being permitted to enter and use the SANCTUM Fitness facility, the undersigned agrees as follows:
1. Acknowledgment of Unstaffed Facility. I understand that SANCTUM Fitness LLC is a 24/7, unstaffed fitness facility. There may be no employees or personnel present at any time, I am exercising entirely at my own risk, and in case of emergency — including medical emergencies, fire, or criminal activity — I am solely responsible for contacting 911. No one is available to render first aid, CPR, or medical assistance, and I knowingly accept all risks associated with an unsupervised exercise environment, including delayed emergency response.
2. Assumption of Risk. I understand that use of a fitness facility — including free weights, machines, cables, and cardiovascular equipment — involves inherent and significant risks. These include serious bodily injury, broken bones, joint and ligament damage, cardiovascular events including heart attack and stroke, heat exhaustion, disability, paralysis, and death. Additional risks include equipment malfunction, slips and falls, overexertion, and the actions of other people present. I voluntarily and expressly assume all risks — known and unknown — associated with my presence and activity at SANCTUM Fitness LLC.
3. Medical Representation. I certify that I am physically able and sufficiently healthy to participate in exercise activities without undue risk. I have either consulted a physician and obtained medical clearance, or I have made a personal, informed decision that such consultation is unnecessary and I assume the risk of forgoing it. I agree to stop exercise immediately and seek medical attention if I experience pain, dizziness, chest discomfort, or any other concerning symptom.
4. Waiver and Release of Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I, on behalf of myself and my heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue SANCTUM Fitness LLC, its owner(s), managers, employees, contractors, agents, and affiliates from any and all liability, claims, demands, damages, and causes of action arising out of or related to my presence on the premises, my use of the facility and equipment, any injury, illness, or death to my person, any loss of or damage to personal property, and any acts of passive or active negligence by the released parties. This release is intended to be as broad as permitted under the laws of the State of Minnesota.
5. Filming & Photography. I understand that SANCTUM Fitness LLC is a private facility intended for focused, personal training. Filming, photography, or recording of any kind that captures other members, guests, or any other identifiable person is strictly prohibited without that individual's express prior consent. Tripods, additional lighting, rigging, or any equipment that blocks walkways, equipment, or training zones requires prior approval from SANCTUM management. I agree to respect the privacy and training experience of all other members and guests, and I understand that loud, disruptive, or socially-oriented recording activity violates this Agreement and may result in immediate removal and termination of access without refund.
6. Equipment Use & Rules of Conduct. I agree to use all equipment only in accordance with its intended purpose and manufacturer guidelines, to utilize all available safety mechanisms, and to wipe down equipment after each use. I agree to re-rack weights, wear closed-toe athletic footwear and appropriate athletic attire, and to conduct myself respectfully at all times. I will not engage in any unsafe, reckless, disruptive, or harassing behavior, and I will comply with all posted rules and policies.
7. No Training or Supervision. I acknowledge that no personal training, instruction, coaching, supervision, or spotting is provided by SANCTUM Fitness LLC unless separately arranged in writing. I am solely responsible for my workout choices, exercise selection, safety precautions, form, and conduct, and I assume full responsibility for my own safety and any injury that may result.
8. Lost or Stolen Property. SANCTUM Fitness LLC is not responsible for any personal property that is lost, stolen, damaged, or misplaced on the premises. I assume all risk of loss for personal property I bring onto the premises.
9. Minimum Age. I certify that I am at least eighteen (18) years of age. Individuals under the age of eighteen are not permitted to use the facility under any circumstances.
10. Governing Law & Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. I consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota.
11. Entire Agreement & Electronic Signature. I acknowledge that I have read this entire Agreement, that I fully understand its contents and legal effect, and that I am signing it voluntarily. I understand that by signing I am giving up substantial legal rights, including the right to sue SANCTUM Fitness LLC.
