What is the registration date for the Aira Fitness logo trademark?

According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Aira Fitness logo has a registration date of March 31, 2020, under registration number 6023134. This registration is on the Principal Register of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The franchise agreement licenses franchisees to use the "Aira Fitness" service mark and associated logos, as well as other trademarks, service marks, trade names, and commercial symbols.

It is important to note that Aira Fitness had previously applied for registration of both the word mark "Aira Fitness" and the AF logo with the words Aira Fitness. However, these applications were refused by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office due to the existence of a similar service mark. Aira Fitness is currently investigating whether their marks and the similar mark can coexist and whether they can obtain registration for their marks. The outcome of this investigation is currently unknown.

Prospective franchisees should be aware that Aira Fitness also claims common law rights to their service marks, but these marks do not have the same legal benefits as federally registered trademarks. If the right to use the trademark is challenged, franchisees may be required to change to an alternative mark, which could increase their expenses. Franchisees are also required to immediately notify Aira Fitness of any infringement or challenge to the use of the marks, and Aira Fitness has the right to control all administrative proceedings and litigation involving the marks. However, Aira Fitness is not required to take affirmative action or participate in the franchisee's defense if they are involved in a proceeding related to the use of the marks.
