Insurance coverage for gymnastic schools

With Markel Specialty’s gymnastics insurance program, you’ll get more than just a policy.

Recommended for all gymnastics schools, commercial general liability insurance provide coverage if in the event of physical injury or damage to a third party. You can choose the level of general liability protection you need:

  • $500,000 per occurrence/$1.5 million aggregate*
  • $1 million per occurrence/$3 million aggregate*

Optional liability coverages you can add to your policy:

  • Abuse and molestation
  • Competitions and exhibitions – protection for you when you participate in competitions and tournaments that you do not sponsor
  • Employee benefits liability
  • Off-premises activities
  • Special events and fundraisers for current policyholders
  • Blanket Additional Insured’s included at no cost – used for landlords for locations on the policy, recitals, performances, and demonstrations.

*Per occurrence is the maximum amount paid on a covered individual claim; aggregate is the maximum amount paid on all covered claims combined within the policy period.

Accident medical insurance will pay students’ medical bills if they are injured at your school or during activities you sponsor and have no insurance of their own, or their bills exceed what their insurance pays. You can think of accident medical insurance as a goodwill gesture—by paying a student’s medical bills now, you may be able to avoid a lawsuit later. Accident medical insurance is sold as a minimum earned premium policy. In the event you cancel your policy, we will retain the minimum premium.

Accident medical insurance is mandatory for cheer gyms. You can choose from three limits:

  • $10,000
  • $25,000
  • $50,000
