Beware of other programs that have exclusions for Assault & Battery or Punitive Damages and no coverage for Non-Owned/Hired Auto Liability or Abuse & Molestation. These problems can expose you to uncovered lawsuits. Read the fine print in the competitor’s program.
If you are an individual dance instructor that does NOT own or long term lease a facility or are simply working on behalf of a dance studio or program, click here for individual dance instructor coverage.
NOTE: If your dance school has a tumbling exposure (floor only, no apparatus) a paper application is required. Please print the brochure and complete for submission.
