Yoga Insurance For Accessible Yoga Specialists

What is Accessible yoga insurance?

Accessible yoga insurance is a specialized liability insurance designed for yoga instructors that teach people with a disability, chronic illness, PTSD, aging bodies,  limited mobility, or some sort of need due to a trauma that has occurred in their life.

Accessible yoga liability insurance is a must for professional, responsible yoga instructors who prioritize protecting their career, their reputation, and their future. Should a legal situation, claim, or allegation arise, professional & general liability insurance is imperative to have so it can help pay for legal fees, medical bills, and any damages.

With all-inclusive policies that cover a wide variety of yoga styles (and the risks associated with them), beYogi’s proud to have your back.

What is Accessible Yoga?

Accessible Yoga is both a style and a growing movement dedicated to making yoga welcoming and available to everyone regardless of age, ability, body size, or background.

Accessible Yoga adapts traditional yoga techniques such as breathwork, meditation, and movement to meet the specific needs of individuals. Whether someone uses a wheelchair, is recovering from injury, lives with chronic illness, or simply feels out of place in conventional classes, Accessible Yoga provides a path into practice that is both empowering and safe.

How Does Accessible Yoga Work?

Accessible Yoga is about inclusion. It recognizes that many people have been excluded from mainstream yoga spaces due to physical, financial, or cultural barriers. This style prioritizes adaptability and supportive teaching, ensuring that yoga is not only physically accessible but also emotionally affirming and culturally respectful. Teachers trained in Accessible Yoga often modify poses using chairs, props, and individualized instruction to suit the needs of the student. The goal is not performance, but connection to breath, body, and self regardless of physical ability or past experience.

However, there are many factors to consider when shopping for the best Accessible yoga insurance price. Of course, the annual cost is essential, but it's also important to consider what it includes.

What kind of services does Accessible yoga insurance cover?

There are over 500 modalities that a beYogi policy will cover, including services in the yoga, massage, fitness, or beauty industries. Accessible yoga insurance refers to professions that offer sessions that encompass a variety of yoga types, including styles like Power Yoga, Baptiste Power Yoga, CorePower, and more.

Do I need Accessible yoga insurance if I teach at my home?

Having your own individual policy or personal liability insurance is always a good idea. If you do not currently have an employer and you offer services outside of your home, having a liability insurance policy will be more important than ever. You may also want to consider a business owner's policy if you have any employees. 

How much coverage is enough for Accessible teachers?

The recommended professional and general liability coverage is $2 million per occurrence with a $3 million annual aggregate. A beYogi policy limit was designed with yoga and wellness risks in mind.

What is the difference between general & professional liability?

Professional liability coverage helps protect against occupation-specific risks, like a professional error or a negligent omission. These situations can occur when the yoga instructor does something wrong or is accused of doing something that results in harm or injury to another individual's self or property. 

General liability coverage is designed for generic risky situations, like a slip or fall. These circumstances are not tied to a specific profession but could occur in any occupation. General liability claims can arise when there is perceived negligence, creating a hazardous situation or environment that causes harm or damage to another individual.

Am I covered if I offer services at various locations?

One of the benefits of a beYogi policy is its portability. In other words, you're not tied to a specific location to provide your services. We offer coverage in all 50 states and ensure the practitioner, not just the place where they teach yoga. This means you're free to take your offerings on the road, to the park, online, or to a friend's house. Your coverage follows you wherever you go and wherever you teach yoga within the United States.

Why do you need liability insurance?

In addition to the financial protection that comes with Accessible yoga insurance, there are several other benefits to being a policyholder. For example, having insurance can boost your credibility by demonstrating to clients that you are a professional who prioritizes safety and responsibility. This confidence allows you to focus on teaching without worrying about unforeseen issues.

Additionally, members may enjoy a series of benefits from their policy. A beYogi member has numerous member benefits at their fingertips, including exclusive discounts, services, and resources. These perks of the policy make our coverage all the more beneficial for our members.

What is occurrence-based coverage, and why is it important?

Occurrence-based coverage is the preferred coverage option because it protects policyholders even after the policy expires. With occurrence-based or occurrence form coverage, you're protected for incidents that occur during the policy period. Even if you file a claim after the policy expires, you'll still be covered for incidents that happened while the policy was active.

Claims can be delayed for various reasons, such as a client not realizing the full extent of their injury, paperwork issues, or other factors. As a result, a claim might be filed after your policy has expired. For this reason, occurrence-based protection can be a lifesaver for yoga professionals because they don't have to stress about a claim being filed on time for incidents that occur while the policy is in place.

How does a Accessible yoga insurance claim work?

An insurance claim can be a relatively simple process. After an incident in which a student or third party is harmed, they could file a lawsuit against you. If this happens, the policyholder will simply contact their insurance company and inform them of the claim. The insurance provider will then determine the claim's validity and what portion of coverage may be available. Your insurance agent can walk you through the details once a claim occurs.

What does it mean to be BBB-accredited?

Accreditation by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) means a company has met the standard requirements for reliable business practices. The BBB is a nonprofit organization that reassures consumers about a company, ensuring it is dependable and safe to do business with. 

The Better Business Bureau also provides rating systems for consumers to evaluate which company may best fit their needs based on other consumers' experiences.
