Tailor-made insurance policies, made for specialists, by specialists.
Our comprehensive Dance Movement Therapy Insurance includes essential coverages specifically tailored to protect professionals in your field:
This fundamental coverage protects you if a client or member of the public suffers an injury or property damage related to your business activities. Our standard policies include £3 million in public liability protection, with options to increase to £5 million if required by specific venues.
If you provide or sell products to your clients, such as movement props, therapeutic tools, or educational materials, this coverage protects you if these items cause injury or damage. This ensures you’re covered if a client is injured by equipment you’ve provided as part of their therapy programme.
Also known as professional indemnity insurance, this essential coverage specifically protects against claims arising from the professional services you provide. This protection covers legal defence costs and any compensation awarded.
This protects you against claims for purely economic losses that don’t involve physical injury or property damage. We automatically include substantial financial loss coverage in our policies, giving you added peace of mind.
We also offer several optional covers that many dance movement therapists find valuable:
Provides financial support if you cannot work due to your own injury, helping replace lost income during recovery periods.
Covers your specialised therapy equipment, music systems, and other professional resources against damage, theft, or loss.
A legal requirement if you employ staff, protecting you against claims from employees who are injured or become ill through their work.
Our Dance Movement Therapy Insurance is designed for qualified practitioners working across the UK, including:
If you combine dance movement therapy with other holistic or complementary therapies, we can create a comprehensive policy that covers all aspects of your professional practice, ensuring there are no gaps in your protection.
Your work guides clients through physical movements while addressing emotional and psychological aspects, meaning claims could arise from physical injuries and allegations of emotional harm. Without adequate insurance, you will be liable for the cost of any claims.
Get a QuoteDance Movement Therapy involves physical and psychological elements, creating a unique risk profile that requires specialist insurance protection.
Get a QuoteImagine an elderly client were to fall during one of your dance therapy sessions. You could be liable and would need to fund any compensation claim.
If you were to damage a client’s property as a result of one of your sessions, you could be deemed liable. Perhaps you knocked over an expensive vase while attending a client’s home for a private session. Or you spilt your water on a client’s smartphone. Your insurer could be your lifeline in these examples.
Even the most skilled and ethical dance movement therapists can face such allegations. Without proper insurance, the financial impact of defending against claims could be devastating, even if you’re ultimately not found at fault. Legal fees alone can run into thousands of pounds.
With over 40 years of experience providing insurance to holistic and complementary professionals, Holistic Gold offers unparalleled expertise in protecting practitioners like you. We understand the nuanced nature of dance movement therapy and the specific risks you face when guiding clients through embodied therapeutic experiences.
