Riding Instructor Insurance

Teaching is a weighty responsibility. But when it involves physical skills and demonstrations with clients and animals who can sometimes behave unpredictably, the risks multiply – and so does the cost of accidents and errors.

It you’re a riding instructor or employ horse trainers, you need physical protection and financial safeguards. That’s why securing coaching insurance is crucial to protecting your business.

Canadian riding coaches and training establishments have come to Henry Equestrian for insurance for four decades. They trust us to get them the best coverage for outstanding value, backed by customer service that’s second to none.

The Coaching Insurance You Need

Did you know signed disclaimers from students only discourage them from suing you, they don’t legally prevent them from doing so?

At minimum, you need equine liability coverage as a key component of your riding instructor’s insurance. This will protect you against claims for bodily injury or property damage.

Coach Status Program

Henry Equestrian is excited to be able to provide special rates for coaches who are EC certified through our Equestrian Canada Coach Status Program.

However, comprehensive coverage for riding instructors requires other important options, all of which are available through Henry Equestrian.

These include:

    • Professional liability insurance, which protects you against claims related to your competence and expertise as a riding coach
    • Horse mortality insurance and major surgery insurance for your owned or leased lesson horses
    • Coverage against injury and loss of income, including disability insurance
    • Additional business insurance options, including coverage for your property, equipment, truck, trailer and umbrella insurance for higher-limit coverage.

The Best Value and Service

Once you contact us, we’ll discuss your needs and budget, analyze all of your risks and place your horse riding instructors insurance into a single portfolio. Then we’ll shop around to secure the most competitive rates for each policy, plus discounts where available.

We believe you’re unlikely to find better combined value – and we know you won’t find better service.

You’ll also benefit from our decades of experience in equestrian insurance. We offer valuable risk management advice, guidance on regulatory requirements and full claims support if you ever need to make a claim on your coaching insurance.

Equestrian Canada Certified Coaches

As a partner and proud sponsor of Equestrian Canada and the National Coaching Certification Program, Henry Equestrian is excited to be able to provide special rates for coaches who are EC certified through our Equestrian Canada Coach Status Program.

Certification helps ensure a coach has met certain requirements, which allows their clients to trust their ability, knowledge and skills. As insurance brokers, we see this achievement as reassurance of a coach’s qualifications and can provide discounted rates to them for their commercial general liability insurance.
