What is the total investment?

What is the initial franchise fee?
The initial franchise fee for a Pilates Addiction franchise is $65,000. This is typically paid upfront as part of the total initial investment, after signature of the Franchise Agreeement.
Pilates Addiction provides a structured training program to ensure franchisees and their staff are well-prepared to operate their studios. The training consists of the following programs:
Initial Training Program Pilates Addiction provides initial training as soon as possible after the franchise agreement is signed. It typically includes three days of in-person training at the franchisor's office and two days of virtual training through online modules. This training may be waived or altered if the trainees have sufficient experience or have already been trained at another Pilates Addiction studio. The content, length, and format are determined at the franchisor’s discretion.
Training Completion Requirement Required Trainees must complete this training at least 30 days before opening the studio. If trainees are unable to complete the program, they may not be permitted to operate the franchise. Each new Designated Manager and Operating Principal must also complete this training unless otherwise agreed in writing.
On-Site or Repeat Training Fees While initial training is included in the franchise fee if all trainees attend together, the franchisor may charge additional fees (currently $500/day per trainee, up to $1,000) for repeat attendees, new managers, or if the training is held at the franchisee's location. Optional training programs may also be offered at an extra cost.
Territory Protection
Pilates Addiction offers franchisees limited territorial protection, but not exclusive territory rights. Once a site is selected and approved, the franchisor defines a protected area known as the “Territory,” which generally includes either a two-mile radius or an area encompassing around 50,000 people—whichever is smaller.
However, in dense urban areas, this protected territory may be significantly reduced or not granted at all.
The franchisor retains broad rights to conduct business outside of the designated Territory. Even within the Territory, they may operate or license studios in "Non-Traditional Locations" such as gyms, airports, or hotels.
Additionally, they reserve the right to sell products and services under different brand names or through alternative channels like e-commerce, even if those activities overlap geographically with a franchisee’s Territory.
