In consideration of being allowed to access this course and the ideas/activities within:

I, do hereby forever release, indemnify and hold harmless and discharge Kathy Sierra / PantherFlow, its members, employees, volunteers, other participants,  from any claims or suits for personal injury, property damage and/or any loss, injury and/or death to any horse which may occur while riding, training, observing or engaging in, any equine activity at any time or any place that was influenced by the content in this program or in any student discussions. 

I understand that handling and training equines is an inherently dangerous activity.  I understand that equines have the propensity, regardless of the equine’s training, temperament and/or history, to behave in ways that could result in injury, harm or death to the participant, spectators, other persons or the equine itself.  I understand that no one can predict an equine’s reaction to specific activities. I understand these risks and voluntarily choose to encounter them and engage in and/or observe an equine activity.  

I hereby covenant and agree not to sue the OPERATORS for any injury or loss of any kind to my person or property (including my equines) resulting from any content / ideas in this course or any related discussions.

I agree to indemnify and defend the OPERATORS from any and all judgments, costs and expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees arising from any claims or suits against the OPERATORS filed by myself, my executor or estate or my assignees.  

I agree to indemnify and defend the OPERATORS from any and all judgments, costs and expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees arising from any claims or suits against the OPERATORS filed by any third party as a result of my conduct and/or any claims or suits against the OPERATORS filed by any third party as a result of the OPERATORS negligence if such a claim or loss occurs while I am engaged in and/or observing an equine activity.  

The undersigned declares and represents that no promise, inducement or agreement not herein expressed has been made to the undersigned and that this document contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto.  

   A number of inherent risks are associated with a domesticated animal activity.  A domesticated animal may behave in a manner that result in damages to property or an injury or death to a person.  Risks associated with the activity may include injuries caused by bucking, biting, stumbling, rearing, trampling, scratching, falling or head-butting.  The domesticated animal may react unpredictably to conditions including, but not limited to, a sudden movement, loud noise, an unfamiliar environment, or the introduction of unfamiliar persons, animals, or objects.  The domesticated animal may also react in a dangerous manner when a condition or treatment is considered hazardous to the welfare of the animal; a collision occurs with an object or animal; or a participant fails to exercise reasonable care, take adequate precautions, or use adequate control when engaging in a domesticated animal activity, including failing to maintain reasonable control of the animal or failing to act in a manner consistent with the person’s abilities.
