    HEALTH SCREENING QUESTIONNAIRE

    If you are between ages 15 and 69, the health screening questionnaire will tell you if you should check with a doctor before you significantly change your physical activity patterns. If you are over 69 years of age and are not used to being very active, please check with your doctor first. Please answer all questions below:

    1) Has your doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and that you should only do physical activity recommended by a doctor?

    2) Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?

    3) In the past month, have you had a chest pain when you were not doing physical activity?

    4) Do you lose balance because of dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?

    5) Do you have a bone or joint problem (for example arthritis, hypermobility, osteoporosis, slipped disc, joint replacement)

    6) Do you suffer from lower back pain i.e chronic pain or numbness?

    7) Is your doctor currently prescribing medication for your blood pressure or heart condition?

    8) Are you pregnant or have you been pregnant in the last 6 months?

    9) Do you know of any other reason why you should not take part in physical activity?

    IMPORTANT PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY

    If you have answered YES to any of the above questions, you should consult with your doctor to clarify that it is safe to become physically active at this time. Please mention anything else that I may need to know to keep your session safe both now and in the future. Whilst every effort is made to keep the sessions both safe and effective, there is a risk of injury as with any programme of activity.

    Please feel free to discuss any questions or queries you may have regarding your session with Wendy. On rare occasions there may be a stand in teacher.
