Safety and liability waiver
Effective date: 5 October 2025
Overview
This waiver applies to all Tango TouchTM activities in Singapore, including weekly classes, practice labs, workshops, intensives, private coaching, seminars, rehearsals, and any off-site events hosted by us or our partners. By booking or attending, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms below.
1. Health declaration and fitness to participate
- You confirm that you are fit to take part in social dance activities that may involve moderate to vigorous physical effort;
- You agree to tell the instructor before class about any injury, pregnancy, surgery, or medical condition that could affect participation;
- You will not attend if you have a communicable illness or acute symptoms that could place others at risk.
2. Assumption of risk
- Argentine tango and related activities involve inherent risks, including slips, falls, strains, collisions and other injuries that may arise from floor conditions, footwear, physical contact with partners and movement in a shared space;
- You voluntarily accept these risks and agree to participate with due care, choosing movements appropriate to your level.
3. Instruction, progression, and prohibited moves
- You will follow instructor guidance, warm-up appropriately and not attempt lifts, aerials, drops or acrobatic movements unless the class is explicitly designed for them and the instructor has approved your attempt;
- You will not teach other participants material – regardless of that material having been taught by the instructor or anybody else.
4. Partner rotation and contact
- Instructor may suggest to rotate partners to support learning. If you prefer to opt out of rotation, tell the instructor before class or on the spot and we will accommodate where space allows;
- Close embrace and guided physical contact are part of instruction. You agree to communicate boundaries clearly, respect others, and stop immediately if anyone indicates discomfort. Instructors may adjust posture or movement through verbal cues or light, professional contact.
5. Footwear, attire and floor safety
- Wear secure footwear suitable for dance. Avoid sharp heels, loose sandals, or shoes that may damage the floor. Long jewellery or accessories that can scratch or snag are not allowed;
- Keep drinks in closed containers away from the floor. Report spills or hazards immediately.
6. Personal conduct and safeguarding
- Treat all participants and staff with courtesy. Harassment, aggressive behaviour, intoxication, or conduct that endangers others will lead to removal without refund;
- Follow studio directions on capacity limits, ventilation, and emergency procedures.
7. Children and young persons
- Participants under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian sign this waiver and accompany them as required by the class listing. Guardians accept responsibility for the minor’s compliance with these terms.
8. Personal property
- You are responsible for your belongings. Tango TouchTM is not liable for loss, theft, or damage to personal property on the premises or at partner venues.
9. First aid and emergencies
- You consent to us providing basic first aid and arranging emergency medical assistance if we reasonably believe it is required. You are responsible for any related costs.
10. Photography and filming
- We may capture photos or short clips for learning or publicity as described in our Privacy Policy. Please refer to the Policy to learn how we deal with photos and videos, what your rights are and how to engage us to address your concerns.
11. Liability
- Nothing in this waiver limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
- To the fullest extent permitted by Singapore law, Tango TouchTM, its instructors and venue partners are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of income or profit, or loss of data arising from participation in activities or use of the premises;
- You agree to take reasonable care for your own safety and the safety of others, and to follow instructions intended to reduce risk.
12. Venue rules and third-party services
- When an activity is held at a partner venue, their house rules apply in addition to this waiver. Third-party services you use are subject to their own terms.
13. Refunds and cancellations
- Changes and refunds are governed by our Bookings, refunds and cancellations. This waiver does not create any additional refund rights.
14. Data protection
