Aerial Studio Insurance
Our Aerial Arts insurance program is for studios that need aerial yoga instructor insurance, aerial dance insurance, or aerial insurance for other aerial arts. The prevention of accidents is key, especially in aerial workout studios. Before activity begins, make sure you have a clear, effective waiver or release form that lists the inherent risks of the activity, and which is written in unambiguous language. You can also reduce the risk of injury by incorporating safety into the practices of each of your teachers.
We are proud that Aerial Arts insurance is one of our most popular aerial instructor insurance programs. It is popular because it is comprehensive, and most yoga, dance, or fitness coverage out there doesn’t compare. If you are wondering whether you should offer Aerial classes, we wrote an article on how aerial workouts can benefit your studio.
To qualify for insurance for aerialists, your students can be in the hammock or silk equipment at 12 feet above ground or lower. The rigging of the equipment can be higher than 12 feet, but no one can go more than 12 feet off the ground while in the aerial equipment.
Aerial Yoga Insurance
The type of studio that most commonly purchases this insurance is one that is looking for aerial yoga insurance. We offer one of the best programs among the very few out there.
Aerial Dance Insurance
If your dance studio offers classes doing any type of aerial movement, then this is the insurance you will need. It covers your regular dance classes, as well as those incorporating aerial arts.
Cost and Logistics
Premium rates will vary based on number of students, desired coverage limits, state/location, etc.

Common Questions
Q: Do you cover off-site aerial activities?
A: Sometimes… each case is different. This has to be reviewed in order to be considered, and prior to being quoted. Call us with questions, or go straight to fill out the application. Please note that all off-site aerial performances are excluded.
Q: Are there types of aerial equipment you don’t cover?
A: Most is covered. However, usually coverage for static trapezes gets declined.
Q: Why would I need equipment/property insurance (i.e., “Inland Marine”) for my yoga studio?
A: The liability portion of the base coverage includes property damage to other parties (e.g., rented recital space, or a neighboring tenant). It does not include your property within the walls of your space (your mirrors or floor, etc.) That’s why owners add on “inland marine” when they can.
