Our Aikido Insurance policy options
Put simply, we offer three different policy options…

Our Sports Travel Insurance will cover you whilst participating in Aikido abroad for training or competition, and includes cover for medical and repatriation costs, trip cancellation and curtailment, and more.
2. Travel Insurance Bolt-On
If you have an existing travel insurance policy in place with another provider such as your bank but it does not include cover for Aikido, we can provide a bolt-on style of protection for your trip.
3. Sports Accident Insurance
Our Sports Accident Insurance is designed to protect you whilst participating in Aikido in the UK, whether that be for training or competition. The policy provides a range of benefits including personal liability and income protection.

How is our Aikido Insurance different?
Many standard travel insurance policies do not cover Martial Arts, and even if they do, it’s likely that there will be exclusions for competitions and tournaments, making a specialist policy necessary. Our policy, which is underwritten by AXA XL, provides cover for Aikido and 500 other sports.
If you are going away to practice Aikido, our Sports Travel Insurance is designed to protect you for a range of risks, from lost luggage to the cost of medical care if you sustain injury or become ill.
For those training in the UK, our Sports Accident Insurance is an ideal option providing cover for various incidents such as broken bones and physiotherapy costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes – we don’t consider an Aikido competition to be riskier than doing the activity as a training pursuit, so we don’t charge a higher premium for that.

Our policies will cover anyone up to the age of 74 at the time of purchase. An applicant aged 75 or over cannot be covered.
