Training 

The franchisor provides an extensive training program for franchisees and their staff, covering all essential aspects of operating the franchise.

Initial Training Prior to opening the Studio, the franchisee (or the Operating Partner) and the Designated Manager must attend and successfully complete the franchisor's initial training program.

This mandatory program must be completed to the franchisor's satisfaction no later than four weeks before the opening date. The initial training program is offered at no cost to these participants.

Manager Training Program The franchisor may offer an additional manager training program. If this program is available and attended, the franchisee may need to pay a training fee, typically $500 per day per attendee, plus associated costs. Currently, this program is optional, but the franchisor reserves the right to make it mandatory in the future.

Additional and Special Training From time to time, the franchisor may offer or require additional training programs. Franchisees may be responsible for paying the current training fee for these programs.

Territory Protection

The franchisor provides limited territory protection to franchisees through a designated "Protected Area." Typically, this area is defined as a circle with a 1.5-mile radius centered on the franchise location. Within this Protected Area, the franchisor commits not to establish or authorize any other studios using its trademarks.

It's important to note that this territorial protection is non-exclusive. The franchisor reserves the right to operate additional businesses and franchises outside of the Protected Area. Moreover, the franchisor can establish businesses in "Captive Market Locations" within the Protected Area as part of its operational strategy.
