Dance School Insurance
Many dance schools and academies across the UK operate on a not-for-profit basis, a fact that is not widely recognised. This means they function similarly to charities, organising events and activities for community benefit without financial gain. Unfortunately, this lack of awareness can make it challenging for them to obtain the support they need.

Within any Organisation, Charity or Community Group, we all hope that no situation is to arise where insurance is needed to support an aligation or claim but in todays day and age it is increasingly more important to have adequate insurance cover in place, in the unfortunate event of something not going to plan. At Ladbrook, we aim to make this process as pain-free as possible.
Insurance for Dance Groups & Schools
Types of Cover
- Public Liability Insurance: Protects the group financially in the event of a claim for damage or injury to a member of the public. However, most insurers do not extend this coverage to volunteers.
- Employers’ Liability Insurance: To ensure volunteers are covered, dance groups must include a level of employers’ liability insurance—even if they do not have paid employees.
- Additional Cover Options: While liability insurance is often the primary requirement, additional coverage can be considered for assets or advice-related activities (as standard public liability insurance does not cover advisory services).
If your dance school is involved in any gymnastics, acrobatics, throwing and aerial activity (particularly on wires or cables) or the use of pyrotechnics please make us aware of this as some insurers will not cover these types of activities.
At Ladbrook, we tailor insurance to your dance school’s unique needs, ensuring you receive the most appropriate coverage.
