What is Yoga Teacher Insurance?

Yoga teacher insurance is a unique protection plan that combines several types of coverage into one. It’s tailored specifically to yoga teachers so you can easily get coverage for the type of work you do.

Insurance helps to protect your yoga business when someone is harmed by your services or property is accidentally damaged. For example, if a student sustains an injury while following your instructions or you damage a studio during a training session, yoga insurance could help cover the costs of these claims.

How Much Does Yoga Teacher Insurance Cost?

Our yoga teacher liability insurance policy starts at $129/year or $12.50/month. That’s as low as 39 cents a day for general and professional liability coverage.

The cost of your insurance won’t increase based on location. There’s also no limit to the number of places you can teach or students you can have. Plus, there are no membership or subscription fees. You won’t find a policy this good for a price that low anywhere else!

Prices may vary based on several different factors, such as adding additional coverages and the payment option you choose. Customize your free yoga instructor insurance quote online today.

Let’s say you are teaching a class in a studio. A student pushes themselves during a pose and falls, breaking one of the wall mirrors in the process. The student fractures their wrist, prompting immediate medical attention and physical therapy. Claims could be made against you by the student for their medical costs, and by the facility owner for the broken mirror. 

In another situation, let’s say you are teaching a class in a corporate office. One of the students trips over the extra mats you have laid out, knocking over a water bottle that spills onto electrical cords used by the company. The employee files a claim for a sprained ankle and the company orders you to pay for replacing the damaged property.

Yoga instructor insurance from Insurance Canopy may help cover these costs and claims.

Whether to choose teacher vs. yoga studio insurance comes down to whether you own or rent a property

  • Yoga studio insurance (also known as Property Insurance) insures buildings you own to operate your yoga business.
  • Yoga teacher insurance may only be able to cover claims for buildings or spaces you rent.

The main focus of teacher insurance is professional liability—meaning most of the coverage applies to claims related to injuries or damages your services cause. Unfortunately, this policy does not currently have coverage for damages caused to buildings you own.
