What positions must each Basecamp Fitness studio employ?

According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, each Basecamp Fitness studio must employ a studio manager, a fitness manager, and fitness coaches. Additionally, while not explicitly required, Basecamp Fitness recommends that franchisees personally supervise their studios. If a franchisee chooses not to be the on-premise manager, they must designate a Principal Operator to fulfill this role.

The Principal Operator, studio manager, and fitness manager are all required to complete specific training programs. The Principal Operator and studio manager must complete the Initial Training Program, while the fitness manager must complete the Day In the Life Operations Training, which is a segment of the Initial Training Program. Furthermore, Basecamp Fitness requires that the Principal Operator, studio manager, and fitness manager sign a confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement.

Prospective franchisees should consider the costs associated with employing these positions, including salaries, benefits, and training expenses. They should also factor in the time commitment required to recruit, hire, and manage these employees. The requirement to have specific roles filled ensures that each Basecamp Fitness location operates with a consistent level of management and instruction, which helps maintain brand standards and quality of service.
