Thanks Charley! So if I provide lesson or parties at their home or location, my personal assets are safe?
I feel the need to share this information with the ladies that are still teaching at the studio. We were all independent contractors, but she told us we were covered under her insurance!

I appreciate all the posts that were made! You guys have really given me something to think about. Although I managed and instructed at a studio, I never had insurance to cover me as an instructor. The owner said we were covered under policy. She also made it seem that the waivers released the studio and the instructors from ALL liability. I feel so misled :(, but glad to know the truth. We were not using crash mats and were taught advanced pole tricks too soon! I’m so glad no one was hurt. I only realized this was wrong after I left. I believed everything she said, be she had taught me everything up to that point. I even began a certifying at her studio up to Level 4. There’s so much more to pole than tricks that I had to teach myself via YouTube. I have a few clients that are wanting lessons because of the lack of structure at that location and I thought I could offer my services at home until I open the pole studio. Unfortunately, I will have to turn them away until I open my studio and obtain an insurance policy.
What’s typically the coverage and cost of insurance for a pole studio?
