Hello Oren,
I would also check with your city, state and county for all required insurance.
When in doubt…contact your attorney.

Sincerely,
Michael

Hello Oren Basse,

To be on the safe side, you will want to contact your lawyer and business organizations in your area, such as score.org.
Take care.

What’s the business model for your new gym?

Will it have paying members like a typical club setting? Or will it be more of a private studio setting where independently contracted trainers workout with their clients? Or will it be something else entirely?

Regardless of state, I’m fairly certain that the type of gym you’re opening up will determine the types of insurance you’ll need.

In addition to the link Harris provided, here’s a few from ACE’s website you might find useful:
