You may have heard some rumors about us...

Finding information about insurance can be tricky, that’s why we believe in being as transparent as possible. We’re here to set the record straight about our coverage.

Myth

“Insurance Canopy does not cover students.”

Fact:

We DO cover students under our plan! What we don’t do is bait you with a low student rate just to raise your premiums later. We want to focus on the work you do as a professional since we know you’re on the path to becoming certified. This ensures you have the best coverage available, even as a student.

Myth

“You can’t be covered if you teach in more than one location.”

Fact:

We DO cover you when you teach in more than one location! Our coverage follows you whether you teach online, in the gym, at multiple studios, in a local community center, at clients’ homes, and more! If needed, you can add one Additional Insured to your plan for $15 a year, or go unlimited for $30 a year.

Myth

“Insurance Canopy does not cover stolen equipment.”

Fact:

We CAN cover stolen equipment! It’s part of our optional Gear & Equipment Coverage. You can get up to $10,000 in coverage for stolen gear and equipment. This can include (but is not limited to) weights, a portable sound system, and filming gear for virtual training.

Myth

“Insurance Canopy doesn’t have occurrence policies.”

Fact:

We DO have occurrence policies! It’s automatically included on all fitness plans. It can cover you for accidents that occur during your policy period. This means you can file a claim anytime, even after your coverage ends.**

You know what they say, you can’t believe everything you read online!
