What Is Personal Trainer Insurance?
Liability insurance for personal trainers is coverage specifically designed to protect you, your business, and the work you do with clients. It combines general and professional liability coverage into one plan.
It may also help you pay for medical bills, legal fees, or the cost to repair or replace damaged or stolen equipment, should a claim be brought against you. You take on a lot of responsibility as a trainer since you’re directly involved with a person’s health, so it’s important to have the right coverage in case something goes wrong.
How Much Does Personal Trainer Insurance Cost?
Personal training insurance costs $12.50 a month, or you can save 14% by switching to an annual policy for just $129 a year.
When comparing insurance policies, it’s easy to just focus on the price. You don’t want to settle for a policy with low limits or gaps in coverage—especially with the risk of expensive claims. Enjoy financial peace of mind and train your clients with confidence with Insurance Canopy.
Our base policy includes coverage for general and professional liability, as well as the option to add on tools and equipment insurance, cyber liability, and diet and nutrition coverage. Find out more about our insurance costs and coverage for personal trainers.
Full-time, part-time, and student trainers can all receive coverage under our policy. You can get your quote online in just 10 minutes or less!
Do Personal Trainers Need Insurance?
Yes! No matter how careful you are, accidents can happen. Having personal training liability insurance can make handling accidents and claims easier.
Train at multiple gym locations, give nutrition or dietary advice, offer online sessions, or work with clients outside of a gym—your coverage goes with you! We offer coverage to personal trainers in a variety of general and niche practices, such as:

Questions About Personal Trainer Insurance
As a personal trainer, you’ll need general and professional liability insurance to cover the most common claims you might face. This may include paying for claims of injuries, illnesses, or property damage.
General Liability (Public Liability) helps with claims of injuries or damages caused by your business. If someone trips over extra gear lying on the ground or accidentally drops weights during a session, you may be covered for the resulting costs.
Professional Liability (Malpractice Insurance) may cover claims of injuries or damages caused by the services you offer. This could be a client getting hurt while lifting weights or accidentally breaking a machine during a session.
Gear & Equipment (Inland Marine) is an optional coverage you can add to your policy for only $16 per year! It helps to insure movable property you use as part of your business, like workout equipment used during classes or filming gear used for virtual sessions.
Medical Expenses is a no-fault coverage limit on your policy that may apply to medical bills, funeral expenses, emotional damage, loss of income, and similar expenses that arise from accidents related to your business or services.
Property Damage (Damage to Rented Premises) is a protection on buildings and their contents for its loss or loss of income-producing abilities. The damages or losses are covered if sustained through an event such as a fire or explosion.
Imagine a scenario where you’re training a client and they accidentally trip while on the treadmill, causing them to fall backward and into a wall. The gym you’re at says you need to pay for the repairs, so you file a claim with your insurance to have help covering the repair costs to the wall and for the injuries to the client.
In another scenario, let’s say you’re an online trainer who makes fitness videos for people wanting to workout at home. Someone is following along to your video when they pull a muscle and need physical therapy to recover. They want you to pay for their medical bills since your advice caused them to get hurt. You could file a claim with your insurance to have help covering this expense.
Our personal trainer insurance may cover claims examples like these (and more).
An additional insured is another person or organization who could be named in a claim caused by your negligence. You add additional insureds to your policy to extend coverage to them in the case of a claim. If you are responsible for an accident, but more than one party is being held liable, you and your additional insured(s) could be covered.
Some written contracts or employment agreements may require you to add them as an additional insured. Here are some examples of additional insureds you could add to your personal trainer policy:
- Gyms
- Property management
- Franchises
- Businesses
- HOAs
- Events
- Health & wellness centers
One additional insured is $15, but for just $30, you can add an unlimited amount of additional insureds to your policy.
You get to choose what day your policy will start. This is the day your insurance will go into effect. You can select today as your start date and enjoy instant coverage from Insurance Canopy.
You can log on to your dashboard to access your Certificate of Insurance, edit any personal or business information, review your coverage details, contact our agents with questions, and download your site seal. This allows you to access your account and view your documents wherever you are.
On your online dashboard, you will also find a “site seal” you can use to show your business is insured. This site seal can be published on your website, printed on your business cards, or shown in your office. It can help your business become more credible and set you apart from the competition.
