1. Think before you act

Always apply the techniques taught, in a safe environment and unforced. As with all physical activities, application of the Wim Hof Method (WHM) and any related practices entails some degree of physical and mental risk. Be cognizant of your own capabilities and limits, both physical and mental, and act accordingly. If you have any concerns or questions regarding particular exercises, always feel free to reach out to us or the WHM-community ().

Adhere to the following precept at all times: NEVER CONDUCT WHM-RELATED ACTIVITIES IN PLACES WHERE LOSING CONSCIOUSNESS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS (e.g. in water, whilst driving, etc.).

Observe and obey posted rules and warnings, and follow any instructions or directions given by the instructor(s). If you observe any unusual significant hazard during your presence or participation, remove yourself from participation and bring such to the attention of the nearest instructor immediately.

2. Take responsibility for your own actions

When you act on knowledge or insight, perceived or otherwise, pertaining to the Wim Hof Method, and related matters discussed on our online spaces (e.g. websites, social media, YouTube), podcasts, books, manuals, or other content outlets, or those of related third parties, you do so voluntarily, and assume full responsibility. Accordingly, you agree to not hold Innerfire or its representatives, agents, suppliers, etc. responsible for any injuries or damages (you may incur) as a result.

If you participate in the activity, you acknowledge that you are physically fit and are in no way incapacitated.

3. Take it easy - it is not a competition

The Wim Hof Method and associated exercises and techniques are not meant/intended to be performed in a competitive context. Go at your own pace and do not let your ego get in the way. Challenge yourself and show commitment, but don’t exceed personal limits in order to prove something to yourself or others. For most people, practicing the Method in a calm and consistent manner yields amazing results.

4. We are not doctors, medics or a medical institution

Nothing about the WHM method should be taken as medical advice. We may offer suggestions regarding physical and mental health —in the form of suggested exercises, nutrition, daily patterns, etc.— but such information is merely intended for educational and informational purposes, and we do not profess legitimate medical expertise. Furthermore, no recommendations or suggestions (whether specific or generic) should be regarded as medical diagnosis or treatment. For qualified advice regarding medical questions, please consult medical professionals.
