According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor has extensive rights to review the operation and administration of an Aira Fitness Business. Aira Fitness can conduct quality control testing, periodic field reviews, and other tests, reviews, and inspections deemed desirable.
To ensure compliance with the Franchise Agreement, Operations Manual, and System, Aira Fitness has the unrestricted right to enter the Aira Fitness Business to examine operations and facilities. This includes inspecting services and products sold to ascertain compliance. Franchisees must cooperate with these inspections and provide any reasonably requested assistance. Aira Fitness also has the right to observe, photograph, and video tape business operations for consecutive or intermittent periods as deemed necessary, and can interview personnel and members of the Aira Fitness Business.

These stipulations suggest that while Aira Fitness maintains oversight, the franchisee retains a degree of autonomy in daily management, though compliance with the franchisor's standards is mandatory.
