Yoga Health Questionnaire
Physical activity including YOGA has many health benefits and is generally not risky for you providing you follow the teacher's guidance and practice with care to your own body capabilities and limitations.
All information given below will be treated in the strictest confidence and stored in accordance with General Data Protection Regulations.
It is entirely up to you what, or how much, information you disclose. You can leave all or any sections blank, but we draw your attention to the disclaimer at the end of this page because you must be responsible for your own health if you do not disclose.

​
Neither your teacher nor the British Wheel of Yoga are qualified to express an opinion that you are fit to safely participate in any British Wheel of Yoga organised sessions or any British Wheel of Yoga trained teacher’s yoga classes. You must obtain professional or specialist advice from your doctor before participating if you are in any doubt.
​
All of our yoga instructors are appropriately qualified or British Wheel of Yoga Accredited teachers, with high standards of teaching and best practice. Where possible, your teacher may offer suitable modifications or adjustments and practices to suit different levels of experience and ability.
​
Please always let the teacher know before the class if this is your first time practicing yoga or if you are not confident about your experience and/or ability. Where you are taking part in live-streamed classes, please note that the instructor may not be able to see you at all times. Where you have declared a health condition, please contact the teacher before the class if you would like to request that you are provided with suitable modifications or adjustments wherever possible. Please note, where you are taking part in a pre-recorded class, you will not be able to request specific adjustments or modifications.
​
Always follow your teacher’s safety instructions and listen to your body. Where a movement or class is beyond your experience or ability, feels too difficult for you, or you experience any discomfort, please do not continue the movement or class.
