You never know what could go wrong during class, such as someone pulling a muscle during a pose or accidentally damaging the studio you’re renting.

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 fractured 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. With Insurance Canopy’s yoga instructor liability insurance, you may be able to avoid these types of financial burdens.

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 is filing a claim for a sprained ankle and the company is ordering you to pay for replacing the damaged property. Yoga instructor insurance from Insurance Canopy may help cover these costs and navigate through the claims process.
