Martial Arts Australia Insurance Services is a Gym, Fitness and Sports specialist Brokerage servicing all States and Territories of Australia.
Although MAAIS specialise in the
Martial Arts, Fitness and Sports sectors, they also arrange insurance in a number of other industries. They believe protecting a client's assets are paramount, but also feel its important to offer a number of related business tools, to help make them become more successful. The principal of the team at MAAIS has over 40+ years experience in the Martial Arts / Fitness Industries and 20+ years arranging insurance. This experience is particularly important as he understands how schools / gyms / studios / academies and clubs operate. His motto is to match an insurance package that is fit for purpose and explains what / how coverage applies to a clients' business.
Over the years many of these types of businesses have diversified by adding new equipment and activities that may not be covered in a standard policy. We call this 'blending' when a martial arts academy introduces a gym section, and or an obstacle course, a cafe and child minding services for example. The insurer needs to know how each business operates as some activities are not included in a general policy and may need to have them endorsed, so they are included. This risk ratings vary with a number of factors based upon operating out of a community centre (hourly rental set up) verses, a full-time facility where the owner leases or owns a factory. The style of each martial art is also rated by intensity / contact of the training and by the number of claims from each discipline.
EXTRA SUPPORT FOR BUSINESSES
Martial Arts Australia Insurance Services works with a number of industry associations and essential business providers so our clients get access to special rates for clients. See our section Partner Refers -
MORE INFO
Graham Slater brings a wealth of knowledge from both the insurance and martial arts / fitness industries, to the company. He has operated his own martial arts schools / gyms both in Australia and overseas for 35+ years. He still resides as Chairman / Director of the International Martial Arts Alliance and Martial Arts Australia. As an insurance risk consultant he can share greater insights into the inner workings of the claims process. His contributions have been used to formulate martial arts risk factors for each style so that insurers have a better understanding of what to include / exclude in their policy wording. This expertise is particularly useful for insurance clients who want to know what happens from an incident, to the settlement of a claim and how to make the process run smoother..
Have you considered getting an INSURANCE HEALTH CHECK on your existing policies?
This may identify if you have doubled up on any coverage, or have any gaps / exposures in your operation, your may even find you are paying too much for your policies. It's vital to review your insurances each year as some Insurer's policy wordings do change, exclusion dropped in and endorsement are added.
Some could be a benefit and others may leave you exposed. The biggest issue Graham has found, is finding clients not having the right cover for their activities while others having insurance they don’t need, mainly due to doubling up on policies.
Martial Arts Australia (MAA)
The Peak Industry Body, is an excellent source of support for School / Gyms / Club Owners.
They also provide professional membership that includes a whole range of support services and business resources.
Take A Membership Tour
Fitness / Health Clubs Fitness Studios and Gyms can obtain both the general operations insurances such as – public, products, management and civil (professional indemnity) with their property, contents, glass, burglary and business interruption.
Some Gyms have actually incorporated martial arts classes and other activities (not just group fitness elements) which have created some confusion in whether they are covered. The martial arts section has either not been covered at all, or owners have had to source a second policy specifically for it. If the gym can segregate the martial arts classes under a separate membership and specific location, it can work with a separate policy. There are however grey areas in coverage with gym members dropping into martial arts classes, but this can be all eliminated with one unique combined policy that we can source for you.
There is an insurance solution that incorporates the activities of a gym / health club and a martial arts academy with liability / property / contents all through the one company.
Individual martial arts schools and associations can arrange an individual club or multi branch package. The same goes for gym chains, they can negotiate a group package that covers all the facilities. Unsupervised training / workouts right up to 24/7 gyms, need to conform with the industry standards for security and safety of members. Not sure what's required, ask one of our brokers.
