Personal Trainer & Fitness Instructor Insurance

Yes. Fitness instructor insurance is an important component of your business and is designed to protect your financial assets and your future career if you were to be sued as a result of your training and business practices. You could be held liable for claims that include injuries, illnesses, or damages arising from your personal training or fitness services. The legal costs alone from claims like these can be financially devastating. With fitness instructor insurance, you’ll have the protection you need to train, teach, and excel in your career with the peace of mind that your future is secure.

Personal trainer insurance needs to provide adequate coverage first for the three largest areas of liability present in this industry - general liability, professional liability, and product liability.

Insure Fitness Group provides all the way up to $1 million for each occurrence for all three liabilities and $3 million in individual annual aggregates for general and professional liability. But the best personal trainer insurance isn’t going to stop with the bare minimum. Today’s fitness pros need more. Additional protections like an identity protection plan, rental damage coverage, and stolen equipment coverage are all included to provide a full 360 degrees of protection so you can pour all of yourself into motivating your clients across the finish line.

Absolutely. Professional liability coverage is a must with personal trainer insurance because of the type of work being performed in fitness in general. Professional liability insurance is often referred to as either “malpractice insurance” or “error and omissions insurance”. Either term provides a clue as to the type of coverage professional liability insurance provides. This coverage applies to the actual services you provide everyday for clients. If a client is injured or has their property damaged during a session with you, they may decide to file a lawsuit to get compensated. That’s where the professional liability insurance portion of your policy with Insure Fitness Group can really save the day. 

Maybe you were having a client do a heavy set of front squats when their knee popped and they hit the ground hard. They hold you responsible for their ensuing knee surgery and all the rehab they need. A major benefit of our professional liability insurance is that it provides assistance both for the costs of the claim and for any legal defense fees that are necessary.

Product liability insurance is included with our personal trainer insurance plan because this coverage provides protection against accidents involving the many different machines and devices that get used everyday in your sessions. Since you direct your client throughout the session, having them hop on a piece of machinery that then causes their injury is something that could potentially bring about a product liability lawsuit. With IFG, you don’t have to sweat it because you’ll be protected all the way up to $2 million when something happens out of the blue involving a fitness product you have your clients use.
