What Insurance Do Personal Trainers Need When Hosting?
We break down common cover types and what’s typically required when listing a space.
For personal trainers opening their doors to clients, insurance isn’t just paperwork — it’s peace of mind. When you’re hosting in a private gym, these are the core covers worth knowing:
- Public liability insurance: Protects you if a client injures themselves or damages property during a session.
- Professional indemnity insurance: Covers you against claims tied to your advice or programming.
- Employer’s liability insurance: Legally required if you employ staff, even part-time assistants.
- Equipment insurance: Useful if you’ve invested heavily in machines, racks, or tech.
While requirements vary by region, having at least public liability is often expected before listing a space on any platform. Beyond legal boxes, insurance also signals professionalism — clients know you’re serious about their safety.
