What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, pre-opening and opening assistance takes place at the franchisee's studio. The document specifies that there are 0 hours of classroom training and 16 hours of on-the-job training for pre-opening and opening assistance. This on-the-job training is conducted at the franchisee's Body20 studio location.
This means that a Body20 franchisee can expect to receive practical, hands-on support at their own studio as they prepare to launch their business. This type of on-site assistance can be invaluable for setting up equipment, training staff, and ensuring that the studio is ready to welcome its first clients. The 16 hours of dedicated assistance suggests a focused effort to help franchisees navigate the critical early stages of opening their Body20 studio.
While the FDD specifies the location and hours dedicated to pre-opening and opening assistance, it does not detail the specific topics covered during this time. A prospective franchisee should inquire with Body20 about the exact nature of the assistance provided, including the types of tasks covered and the level of support offered. Understanding the scope of this assistance will help franchisees prepare effectively for their studio launch and ensure a smooth transition into operations.
