This week on the podcast, I am joined by Gary Leinwand, who is an insurance broker with Arthur J. Gallagher. Arthur J. Gallagher is the company that I’ve used for my own personal insurance for years and they are one of my top recommendations for insurance for Canadian yoga teachers.

In this episode, Gary talks about insurance for Canadian yoga teachers, including why insurance is important, what to look for as a yoga teacher getting insured, what to look for as a yoga studio getting insured, and what yoga teachers need to know about teaching online and how it impacts their yoga business.
