Do you need insurance to teach Pilates?

Yes, insurance is highly recommended and often required: 

  • Studios and gyms often require proof of liability insurance before allowing you to teach on-site 
  • Some states or professional bodies may mandate coverage for liability or workers’ compensation 
  • Operating without insurance leaves you personally liable for legal and medical costs
