VYP respects your rights to privacy and anonymity. I acknowledge that participating in the Veterans Yoga Project (VYP) 15th Anniversary events held on June 26 and 27th 2026 in Washington D.C. is strictly voluntary. I also understand that VYP intends to take photographs and make video and audio recordings of the event for various promotional and documentary purposes with Healing Vet Films, LLC. By attending or participating in any of the events in connection with the VYP 15th Year Anniversary including: (1) the Skyline Social Anniversary Celebration held at or near the offices of Beveridge & Diamond, P.C, located at 1900 N Street, NW, Washington DC; and/or (2) the Yoga in the Park event located at or near the Henry Bacon Field or Garden/the Global War on Terrorism Memorial Foundation Site, I grant VYP and Healing Vet Films, LLC. full rights to take and use photographs, video recordings, and/or audio recordings taken of me, produced by me or others for use on VYP’s website, other electronic media, and in publications and promotional materials such as brochures, newsletters, magazines, and books, among others, without prior notice to me or additional consent from me.
I understand that VYP or Healing Vet Films, LLC. will not release my last name or other personally identifying information in connection with these materials.
I permit VYP to use my first name in connection with any photograph of me. I further agree to release, defend, and hold harmless VYP and Healing Vet Films, LLC from and against any claims, damages, or liability arising from or related to the use of the photographs, video recordings, and/or audio recordings, including, but not limited to, any misuse, distortion, blurring, alteration, optical illusion, or use in composite form—whether intentional or otherwise—that may occur or be produced in the taking, processing, reduction, or production of the finished product, or in its publication or distribution.
Finally, I understand that participating in the events may include the practice of yoga. I acknowledge that yoga is a physical discipline that requires mental concentration, physical strength, and endurance. I understand that participation in yoga may expose me to a risk of personal injury. I agree to honor and respect my body and its limitations and to practice within those limitations. I take full responsibility for my own safety and well-being. I release Veterans Yoga Project and its agents from any and all claims associated with or arising from its activities. I am aware that I should inform the instructor of any injuries, limitations, or other relevant information regarding my yoga practice. If you cannot agree to this waiver, we respectfully request that you please not participate in the VYP 15th Anniversary Events. We look forward to your participation in many other VYP events, trainings or classes where there will not be any photographs or audio or video recording. *
