Insurance Expectations

This module focuses on protecting yourself, your business, and your students by understanding legal, professional, and safety requirements. It’s particularly important when teaching outside of your home studio or offering freelance classes.

Insurance Expectations

Proper insurance protects you from liability claims, accidents, or property damage.

  • Public liability insurance is essential for in-person classes, covering injuries to students or damage to third-party property.
  • Professional indemnity insurance covers advice or instruction that may lead to a claim of negligence.
  • Equipment insurance may be required if you bring apparatus to external venues or if you use your own equipment.

Never assume anyone else’s insurance covers your activities. You are responsible for your own protection.
