I previously had yoga teacher liability insurance through Philadelpha Insurance via Yoga Journal. I let it lapse as I'd stopped teaching yoga due to our having moved into the yoga studio w/ all our animals. I have since decided to resume teaching here, thx to a friend's very charitable donation of a Bissell all-in-one floor cleaner which will make my life easier. Because I am also a professional "psychic" and spiritual advisor, as well as holistic wellness counselor, I was looking for liability insurance to cover those aspects of my practice as well. I found IICT, International Institute for Complementary Therapists, which offers insurance that covers over 100 different "alternative" modalities including yoga, pilates, dreamwork, spiritual counseling, all kinds of metaphysical stuff, at very reasonable rates! This may interest you, BlueRaincoat and technoyogi. My premium for liability covering all aspects of my work is around $30/month, whereas yoga alone was about $16/month with the previous company. So this is a great deal especially if you teach more than asana.

I have a yoga teacher insurance through Yoga Journal (Philadelphia Insurance). The insurance is $75/year, but it comes with the journal subscription (which I enjoy), and other fees, for a total of $190. If you teach a lot, the insurance goes up to $250.
I also ask for signed wavers from people taking my yoga course at a community setting. Yoga studios usually have their own insurance, but it is good for a teacher to have insurance.
