Dance teacher insurance

Tailored insurance for dance teachers and ballet instructors

Whether you teach children to pirouette or adults to salsa, dance teacher insurance from Simply Business can protect you if something goes wrong.

Insurance for dance instructors starts with public liability insurance in case someone hurts themselves or their property is damaged. For example if a dance student slipped on a wet floor in your studio and claimed compensation for injury, your public liability insurance could cover the legal fees and compensation cost.

Build a tailored dance teacher insurance policy by adding any other cover you need to protect your business, including employers’ liability insurance if you employ staff, and business buildings insurance if you need to insure your premises.

Cover from £6.79 a month, get insured in minutes. (10% of direct debit customers repay their annual policy in 10 monthly payments of £6.79 or less across all our trades insured. Based on data from 1 July - 31 December 2020, for comparison only. Cancellation charges may apply, please refer to our full terms & conditions.)

What insurance is required for dance teachers?

You can choose which business insurance covers to take out depending on your individual business, but here are some useful covers for dance instructors:

Public liability insurance is your core cover. It protects you against compensation claims made by a member of the public (including one of your dance students) for injury or damage to their property.

Employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement for most businesses that employ staff. It covers claims made against you by an employee or former employee for injury or illness caused by their work.

Business buildings insurance and business contents insurance can help get your business up and running again if your premises is damaged by something like fire, flood or burglary.

You can also add business equipment insurance to protect the things that are essential to your work as a dance teacher.
