What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, attendance at quarterly sales and operations meetings and annual franchise conventions is generally required for both the franchisee and their manager, unless Aira Fitness approves otherwise. Aira Fitness reserves the right to charge a fee for attending these events.
If an Aira Fitness franchisee is unable to attend a meeting or convention, they must notify Aira Fitness prior to the meeting. In this case, Aira Fitness may require the franchisee to send a substitute person acceptable to them to attend the meeting in their place.
Failure to attend a franchise convention or meeting without making acceptable arrangements can result in a non-attendance fee of $500. This policy ensures that Aira Fitness franchisees remain informed and engaged with the brand's strategies and operational standards, while also allowing for necessary flexibility in cases of unavoidable absence.
