Acroyoga Insurance For Acro Yoga Specialists

What is Acroyoga insurance?

Acroyoga has some of the most unique risks combining two or more students working together. This often leads to the thought that injuries are more likely in this style of yoga.

Acroyoga 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.

What is Acroyoga?

Acroyoga is a unique style of yoga that blends together elements of traditional vinyasa or hatha yoga with modern acrobatics to create a fusion of partner yoga with deep—but playful—dimensions.

Acroyoga, a branch of yoga that was created in the late 1990s—is built on the foundation of connection, merging the confidence, trust, and abilities of two partners under the direction and instruction of a trained yoga instructor.

Considered to be vigorous, challenging, and physically demanding, it’s defining feature is the use of gravity to stretch, strengthen, and promote physical and mental wellness for students. This branch of yoga can also offer elements of massage to relieve stress and muscle tension, too. However, partner work is the key focus for Acroyoga.

How Does Acroyoga Work?

Typically, Acroyoga contains three roles for yogis—a base (the person who is in contact with the ground and supports their partner with their arms or legs), a flyer (the person who is lifted off the ground by the base), and the spotter (the person who watches the base and flyer, ensuring alignment is correct and postures are safe—this is usually an instructor’s role).

Acroyoga is a unique style of yoga that blends together elements of traditional vinyasa or hatha yoga with modern acrobatics to create a fusion of partner yoga with deep—but playful—dimensions.

Though Acroyoga is one of the newest, most modern interpretations and styles of yoga, its blooming popularity has made it a prevalent choice for yoga students. If you’ve ever seen partner yoga where one student lies on the ground (acting as a base) supporting another student as they move through intricate asanas and acrobatic sequences, then you’re more familiar with Acroyoga than you might think.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between general liability and professional liability?

General liability is often called “slip and fall” insurance because a student simply walking into a studio slipping and falling can result in a general liability claim being filed because it could be claimed the facility didn’t take proper steps to provide a safe, accessible environment.

Professional liability occurs during the course of your instruction or as a result thereof. If you were helping a student with their posture and pushed a little too hard and they were injured, a claim under professional liability could ensue. In either case, beYogi has you covered through the entirety of your student teacher training with a comprehensive insurance package.

How does occurrence form coverage work?

Occurrence form coverage means if a claim is filed against you after your policy is no longer effective you’re covered as long as the incident in question occurred while your policy was still in effect. Learn with our deep-dive into occurrence based coverage.

What does annual aggregate mean?

This is the maximum amount of money insurance will pay during the 12-month policy period of beYogi’s student insurance plan. Under beYogi’s student insurance plan, you have $2 million of coverage for each claim filed and up to a $3 million annual maximum, or aggregate, for all claims occurring in that year. 

How much does beYogi yoga insurance cost?

For as low as $60/YR, you can get covered for your yoga services. We offer student, part-time, and full-time rates letting you decide which policy makes the most sense for you. Our most popular policy is our standard 1 year full time rate for just $179/YR.

Does my yoga school or studio cover me if a claim is made against me?

It depends but in most cases, no, your school or studio’s insurance would not cover you if a claim was brought against you. The school or studio may even face liability of their own. That’s why it's imperative individual teachers protect their own yoga career.

Why would I need professional liability insurance before completing certification?

During your training, you’ll be learning proper alignment and modifications of a wide variety of different poses and modalities. Most certifications require hands-on experience to demonstrate proficiency. If a student you were working with happened to be injured while you were helping them, a claim against you could result. Because this occurred while you were providing a professional service, the claim would fall under professional liability. When you have yoga teacher insurance, you are covered for these types of claims all the way up to $2 million per claim.

Is a policy only good for one location?

The beauty of our policy is that the coverage is with you no matter where you’re teaching. From formal in-person classes to laid-back pool deck vinyasas, you’ll have peace of mind and spirit knowing beYogi yoga insurance has you covered.
