Important: Coverage terms, eligibility, and pricing are determined by the carrier and vary by state and individual circumstance. The information on this page is general and educational — nothing here implies, affords, or offers any specific insurance coverage. Review the actual policy form and consult a licensed insurance professional before binding.

Professional Liability / E&O

Inland Marine (Equipment)

Hypothetical claim scenarios

These are hypothetical examples only. Actual coverage depends on the policy form, exclusions, and carrier determination.

A studio owner asks every visiting teacher for a certificate of insurance before a weekend workshop — a standard request an individual teacher policy is intended to satisfy.
A student alleges a deep assisted stretch contributed to an injury. Professional liability — also known as Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance — is generally intended to address allegations of this type in the event of a covered claim.

Frequently asked questions

What does yoga insurance usually cost?

Individual teacher policies commonly run in the low hundreds of dollars per year for combined general liability and professional liability / E&O. Studio policies cost more because they add premises, property, and multiple-teacher exposure. Pricing is determined by the carrier and varies by state.

Does yoga insurance cover hot yoga, aerial yoga, or SUP yoga?

Specialty formats are frequently excluded or separately rated. Hot yoga is often standard; aerial and paddleboard formats usually need specific approval. List every format you teach on the application.

Do retreats need separate coverage?

Multi-day retreats — especially out of state or abroad — often fall outside a standard teaching policy. Many carriers offer a retreat endorsement or short-term extension; confirm before you sell spots.
