Do most Senseis, especially ones that teach seminars, have Liability Insurance?

This is the best deal that I know of

http://www.karateinsurance.com/

and they list your organization - Aikido Schools of Ueshiba
as one of their clients. Might want to find out what that means.

contact is at the bottom of the application form page

I had to have it because a dance school I was renting space out of required it. It covers me in multiple locations and traveling. I found out about it through some other martial arts school owners.
If you teach kids you definitely need it. If you teach adults in a non-proift only and screen them like small groups do, I am dubious of the need for this. Be sure that your waiver meets the
insurance provider's approval.

If you college funds your group seems kind of surprising they don't have coverage.

best,
Craig
