Hypothetical claim scenarios
These are hypothetical examples only. Actual coverage depends on the policy form, exclusions, and carrier determination.
- A student slips on a wet studio floor after a hot yoga class and is injured — general liability is intended to respond in the event of a covered claim.
- A student alleges a teacher's physical adjustment in a pose caused a strain; professional liability insurance, also called Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance, is generally intended to respond to an allegation of this kind.
Frequently asked questions
Why do yoga studios need professional liability?
Because teachers cue and sometimes physically adjust students, a class member may allege the instruction itself caused harm. Professional liability insurance, also called Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance, is intended to address that exposure, apart from a premises injury.
Are my instructors covered or do they need their own policy?
Whether teachers are covered under the studio policy or need individual coverage depends on the form and their employment status. Confirm how your instructors are classified before relying on a single policy.
