Liability insurance provides security to yoga instructors

As a yoga teacher, you get up close and personal with your clients on a regular basis. Whether your primary skill is providing technique support or business skills, or something else altogether, there is a reason you need yoga instructor liability insurance.

You see, each of these different skill sets involves very close work with a client and his or her body. That means you may need liability insurance more than folks who make their living in a more hands off manner. After all, one of the main purposes liability insurance serves is to protect you against a client’s claims of damage or injury, whether the damage or injury is allegedly due to a lack of skill or competence on your part or due to a product you used on your client.

The two forms of protection described above are malpractice insurance and product liability insurance, both of which should be included in a strong yoga teacher liability insurance policy. With this kind of coverage, you will be protected against those rare situations when a person might sue you for damage or injury.

Even though these occurrences are fairly rare, they are far from nonexistent. Again, this is why yoga teacher liability insurance exists in the first place. Much like automobile insurance, it is there to cover you when an accident—or an unexpected claim—takes place.

Do your homework and find a liability insurance program that both suits your budget and provides optimal protection.
