How many students can attend my online classes?
It depends on your cover. Always check directly with your insurance provider. If you’re insured under the Balens policy offered to Yoga Pros members, the policy does not specify a maximum class size for online classes.
Why This Matters
Class size can affect safety, supervision, and your ability to deliver appropriate guidance. Insurance terms can vary by provider, so it’s important to make sure your cover matches how you teach in practice.
What This Means for You

Always follow your insurer’s guidance for online teaching.
-
Under the Balens policy offered to Yoga Pros members, there is no stated limit on the number of students in an online class.

What You Need to Do

Ask your insurance provider if they have any class size limits or conditions for online classes.
