Why does beYogi's yoga insurance outweigh Yoga Journal insurance?


  1. Comprehensive Model: beYogi offers yoga instructors all-inclusive liability insurance, identity protection, and membership benefits for as low as $169 a year. IDEAfit offer insurance access if you purchase their membership. Their member fee is $69/year and insurance is an additional fee 
  2. Student Policy Clarification: 
    1. beYogi: $60 student policy for teacher in their first YTT. If you are currently enrolled in yoga teacher training (YTT) you are eligible for the student policy that has the same amount of coverage as our professional policy. 
    2. IDEAfit: An email associated with an university or college is required to be eligible for their student pricing. This means a you would not be eligible for student pricing if you were in a 200HR YTT. 
  3. Type of Policy: Occurrence form coverage is the industry preferred liability insurance policy type. 
  4. Coverage Limits: beYogi policy limits were determined by industry standards while still being able to offer an affordable policy. IDEAFit has lower coverage limits that could leave you liable to pay for costs out of pocket if you exceed your per claim or annual limit.
