Insurance For Circus Skills Providers

Insurance for circus skills providers may need to reflect the activities offered, participant ages, venues used, equipment involved, instructor numbers and whether sessions are educational, recreational or performance-based.

A specialist broker may ask whether sessions are delivered in schools, community centres, festivals, events, private venues, public spaces, youth groups or dedicated circus training environments.

The correct insurance arrangement can depend on supervision, experience, claims history, equipment used, public access and whether activities involve audience participation.

Circus Arts Training Session

Circus Workshops And Training Activities

Circus workshops and training activities may involve practical instruction, demonstrations, hands-on participation, group tuition, movement activities and use of specialist equipment.

Activities may include juggling, diabolo, plate spinning, poi, flower sticks, devil sticks, balance skills and other entry-level circus arts sessions.

A broker may want to understand whether the provider offers beginner sessions only, advanced training, structured courses, public demonstrations or performance-related tuition.

Community Circus Groups And Schools

Community circus groups and circus schools may work with children, adults, youth groups, community organisations, schools, festivals, charities and recreational activity providers.

Sessions can involve instructors, assistants, volunteers, participants, parents, teachers, venue staff and members of the public.

A specialist broker may ask about the organisation structure, number of instructors, volunteer involvement, safeguarding procedures, participant supervision and whether any staff are employed.

Educational And Recreational Sessions

Circus skills sessions may be delivered as educational workshops, recreational activities, after-school sessions, holiday clubs, festival workshops, team building activities or community engagement programmes.

Educational settings may introduce additional considerations around participant age, supervision, venue requirements, safeguarding and instructional responsibilities.

Where formal instruction or advice is provided, a broker may also discuss whether professional indemnity insurance should be considered alongside public liability insurance.

Community Circus Skills Class

Juggling, Diabolo And Circus Arts Training

Juggling, diabolo, plate spinning, poi and related circus arts activities can involve moving objects, group participation, demonstrations, equipment handling and public or participant interaction.

Insurance discussions may include how equipment is used, whether activities are supervised, how groups are managed and whether any higher-risk or advanced circus skills are excluded from sessions.

A specialist broker may ask about the equipment list, participant numbers, instructor qualifications, venue layout, risk assessments and previous incidents.

Public Events And Demonstrations

Circus skills providers may attend public events, festivals, school fairs, community days, exhibitions, private functions, corporate events and recreational activity sessions.

Event organisers and venues may ask providers to show evidence of public liability insurance before workshops or demonstrations can take place.

A broker may ask about the number of events attended each year, expected participant numbers, audience interaction, venue types, supervision arrangements and whether activities are indoor, outdoor or both.

Public Liability Insurance Considerations

Public liability insurance may be considered where a circus skills provider could face allegations involving accidental injury to third parties or accidental damage to third-party property.

Examples could involve participant injuries, trips over equipment, accidental damage at venues, incidents during demonstrations or claims involving members of the public at events.

A specialist broker may ask about risk assessments, supervision ratios, equipment checks, venue requirements, participant ages, claims history and safety procedures.

Employers' Liability Insurance Considerations

Employers' liability insurance may need to be considered where a circus skills provider employs instructors, assistants, administrators, event staff or other workers.

Employee risks may involve setting up equipment, supervising participants, travelling to venues, lifting equipment, delivering sessions and working at busy public events.

A specialist broker may ask about employee numbers, payroll, staff duties, freelance instructors, volunteer involvement, training and accident history.

Additional Insurance Considerations

Depending on the activities undertaken, additional insurance considerations may include public liability insurance, employers' liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance, equipment insurance, personal accident insurance, legal expenses insurance, event insurance, cyber insurance, management liability insurance and goods in transit insurance.

Equipment insurance and goods in transit insurance may be discussed where juggling equipment, diabolo sets, plate spinning equipment, poi, workshop materials or teaching resources are transported between venues.

Management liability insurance may be relevant where a community circus group, charity, company or organisation has committee members, trustees or directors making decisions on behalf of the group.

Information A Specialist Broker May Require

A specialist broker may ask about the circus skills activities provided, participant ages, venues used, annual number of sessions, instructor numbers, employee details, equipment used and claims history.

They may also ask about safeguarding procedures, risk assessments, public events, educational settings, community work, equipment values, goods in transit and whether professional advice or structured training is provided.

Clear information can help a broker understand the circus skills activities before approaching insurers for consideration.
