Safety Notice
Practice and teach at your own risk
This notice is maintained by the Āsana/OS team to explain how the app may be used safely. Please read it before starting your trial.
Educational content, not medical advice
Āsana/OS is a tool for planning and teaching yoga. The poses, cues, sequences, timings, breath guidance, voiceover, music suggestions, and any AI-generated content are provided for general educational and reference purposes only. They are not medical, physiotherapy, psychological, or professional health advice and are not a substitute for qualified in-person instruction, diagnosis, or treatment.
Yoga carries inherent physical risk
Yoga involves physical movement, breath work, balance, and stretching that can cause injury if practiced incorrectly, over your current ability, or with an underlying condition. By using this app you acknowledge and accept those risks for yourself and anyone you teach.
Consult a qualified professional first
Before starting any yoga practice - and before teaching one - consult a qualified medical professional, especially if you or your student are pregnant, recovering from injury or surgery, have high or low blood pressure, heart, joint, spinal, or respiratory conditions, dizziness, epilepsy, or any other condition that could be affected by physical exertion.
Poses and sequences are guidelines
All pose descriptions, alignment cues, prerequisites, timings, and sequence suggestions in Āsana/OS are guidelines only. They cannot account for your individual body, experience, or the needs of any student in your class. Modify, skip, or replace any pose that is not appropriate, and stop immediately if you feel pain, sharp discomfort, dizziness, or shortness of breath.
Teacher responsibility
If you use Āsana/OS to plan or lead a class, you are solely responsible for the safety of your students. This includes screening for injuries and conditions, providing appropriate modifications, supervising the room, and holding any insurance or certifications your jurisdiction requires. Āsana/OS does not certify, license, or endorse any teacher.
No warranty; limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law in your country, Āsana/OS and its creators provide the app "as is" without warranties of any kind and disclaim all liability for any injury, loss, or damage arising from your use of the app or the content within it, whether you are practicing on your own or teaching others. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions of liability - in those places, our liability is limited to the minimum permitted by local law, and nothing in this notice affects rights that cannot legally be waived (including, for consumers in the UK, EU, Australia, and similar jurisdictions, non-excludable statutory rights).
Emergencies
Āsana/OS is not an emergency service. If you or a student experience a medical emergency, stop the practice and contact your local emergency services immediately.
Your agreement
By starting a trial or continuing to use Āsana/OS you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted this Safety Notice, along with our Terms and Privacy Policy.
