Gym and Fitness Business Insurance Australia – Coverage for Studios & Trainers

Running a gym or fitness studio involves more than helping people reach their health goals—it’s about managing risk, equipment, clients, and liability. Whether you own a 24/7 gym, a boutique Pilates studio, or work as a personal trainer, fitness insurance protects your business, your members, and your future.
