You work hard to help people feel stronger, healthier, and more confident. But what happens if a client claims they were injured due to your instruction, or a visitor slips on a wet floor and gets hurt? What if you accidentally damage a client’s cell phone or break a mirror in a rented space?

That’s where Berxi’s top-rated fitness insurance comes in: with our customized general liability insurance for fitness professionals and businesses — including coverage for client injuries caused by your instruction, advice, or training — you get the protection you need to focus on what matters: helping people reach their fitness goals.

What does Berxi’s fitness liability insurance cover?

Berxi’s customized general liability insurance for fitness businesses and professionals is designed to protect you legally and financially from the risks you face every day, including slip and fall injuries, client injuries due to your professional instruction, and third-party property damage.

In addition, you can add business personal property (BPP) coverage to your general liability policy, which can pay for repairs or replacements if your fitness equipment and other business assets are damaged or lost.

General liability insurance covers third-party claims of bodily injury and property damage that occur in connection with your fitness business. It also covers claims of personal and advertising injury, such as libel, slander, or copyright infringement in your advertising.

Plus, unlike other insurance providers, Berxi’s general liability policies include coverage for client injuries due to instruction, training, or advice at no extra charge. So if a client claims they were injured because of instruction from you or your employees, Berxi’s got you covered.

Examples include:

  • A client slips on a wet floor, loose mat, or piece of equipment at your studio or training space and suffers an injury, resulting in medical expenses and a claim against your business.
  • A client claims they were injured during a class, personal training session, or workout program led by you or one of your employees and seeks compensation for medical treatment.
  • You accidentally damage equipment, electronics, mirrors, or other property belonging to someone else while training clients at a gym, community center, or rented fitness space.
  • Another business claims you infringed on its copyright in your advertising via a photo, video, or other content you used in your marketing materials, leading to legal expenses and a settlement.

If you ever face a claim like this, your general liability insurance can pay medical bills, replace or repair damaged property, and pay for legal defense and damages in the event of a lawsuit.

You can optionally add business personal property (BPP) coverage to your Berxi general liability policy. This coverage add-on can help pay for repairs or replacements if your business assets are damaged, including your equipment, computers, furnishings, inventory, and more.

Examples include:

  • A burst pipe or other covered event damages exercise equipment, furnishings, or inventory at your studio, gym, or office, requiring repairs or replacement.
  • A computer or tablet used to manage client records, class schedules, memberships, billing, and day-to-day operations is damaged and needs to be replaced.
  • Fitness equipment, sound systems, or other gear is damaged while being transported to an off-site class, corporate wellness event, or outdoor training session and must be repaired or replaced.

Full Coverage Details of Berxi Fitness Liability Insurance

If a client or visitor is injured at your studio or training space — for instance, by slipping and falling — your general liability policy can help cover their medical bills and pay for any related legal costs and damages.

If you or your employees accidentally damage someone else’s property, general liability insurance can help pay to repair or replace it.

Unlike other insurance providers, Berxi’s general liability policies include professional incident coverage for bodily injury due to your instruction at no extra charge. That means if a client claims you caused them bodily injury due to an error in your work, such as negligence in a fitness class or improper instruction, your policy can help pay for medical bills and legal defense.

Personal and advertising injury coverage protects against legal issues stemming from things you write or say, including your marketing activities. It safeguards you from claims of reputational harm, such as libel and slander, as well as privacy invasion and copyright infringement in your advertising.

With a general liability policy from Berxi, everyone employed by your business is covered, not just you. That means your business will be protected from general liability claims resulting from employee actions: for instance, if an employee accidentally damages someone’s property, your Berxi policy can help cover the costs.

You can choose to add business personal property (BPP) coverage to your general liability policy as an optional endorsement, which can help repair or replace damaged or lost fitness equipment, computers, inventory, furnishings, and other business assets. (Note that BPP generally doesn’t apply to normal wear and tear.)

In addition, you can get workers’ compensation and cyber liability coverage from one of our trusted partners by speaking with our in-house customer support team.
