I only work a few months a year and the fee feels a bit high. I don’t want to lose my IKO Instructor status—what can I do?
You can choose the Basic Instructor Membership for just USD 79.90 per year. It allows you to keep your IKO certification active while benefiting from recreational third-party liability insurance and full access to IKO services.
Please note: this plan does not include professional liability coverage for teaching, so your students are not covered during your lessons.

How long is the insurance valid for?
