Terms & Conditions

Last update: January 18, 2024

Welcome to Study Yoga LLC. (“StudyYoga.com“) website!

Study Yoga’s website and apps (hereinafter referred to as the “Website“) i

Study Yoga is an online tool to help develop your mind, body and emotional state. Using high quality Guides (instructors) we provide video and live connection. Our active community feeds, forums and messaging also foresters connections with our Guides. Our Paths (courses) connect members with a supportive community interested in obtaining similar benefits from our Paths. We truly just want you to be happy. This website is owned and operated by Study Yoga LLC.

These Terms & Conditions of Use (this “Agreement“) apply to: (1) all of the products, services and websites offered by Study Yoga, including, but not limited to, the Website; (2) mobile, tablet, or other digital or electronic versions of the Study Yoga video streaming platform;  (3) any applications created by Study Yoga such as social media sites such as facebook, instagram and twitter.  (collectively, the “Service“). 

This Service is not directed to persons under eighteen (18) years of age.

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICE. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Acceptance of Terms

This Agreement sets forth legally binding terms for your use of the Service. By using the Service, you agree to be bound by this Agreement, whether you are a “Guest“ (which means that you simply browse the Service) or you are a “Member“ (which means that you have registered on the Website as a user). If you do not accept the terms of this Agreement, you should leave the Website and discontinue use of the Service immediately. We will post a notification on the Service in the event of any material changes to this Agreement. Such changes, whether in the form of modifications, additions, or deletions, shall be effective when specified in the relevant notification or, if the change is immaterial, immediately upon appearing on the Service. Your continued use of the Service following our posting of any changes to this Agreement means that you accept those changes.

Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver

You and Study Yoga agree that any dispute between us (including disputes against any agent, employee, subsidiary, affiliate, predecessor in interest, successor, or assign of the other) relating to: (1) the Service; (2) any transaction or relationship between us resulting from your use of the Service; (3) the purchase, order, installation, or use of the Service; or (4) communications between us, will be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration and the arbitration decision may be enforced and judgment entered thereon in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and Study Yoga  further agree that this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, and not by any state law concerning arbitration. You and Study Yoga further agree that any determination regarding the applicability, enforceability, or validity of this arbitration agreement will be made by the arbitrator, not by any court.

By agreeing to this arbitration agreement, you are giving up your right to go to court, including, but not limited to, your right to a jury trial.

In arbitration, a dispute is resolved by a neutral arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, rather than by a judge or jury. Arbitration is more informal, however; an arbitrator can award the same relief that a court can award. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“), and conducted under AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules“) then in effect at the time of the dispute. You may obtain copies of the AAA Rules and forms and instructions for initiating arbitration by visiting the AAA website at www.adr.org, or by calling AAA at (800) 788-7879. If for any reason the AAA is unavailable, the parties shall mutually select another arbitration forum.

Any arbitration shall be conducted only on an individual basis, and any claim shall not be arbitrated as a class action, in a purported representative capacity, or brought as a private attorney general. The arbitrator shall have no authority to: (1) consolidate more than one person’s claims against Study Yoga; (2) preside over any kind of representative or class proceeding against Study Yoga; or (3) award any kind of class-wide relief. You acknowledge that this class action waiver is material and essential to the arbitration of any disputes between the parties and is non-severable from the agreement to arbitrate claims. If any portion of this class action waiver is limited, voided, or cannot be enforced, then the parties’ agreement to arbitrate shall be null and void.

You understand that by agreeing to this class action waiver, you may only bring claims against us in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff, class representative, or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding.

If you do not agree to this arbitration agreement and class action waiver, you must tell us in writing and not use the Service.
