What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Body20 may require remedial training if, in their sole judgment, a franchisee fails to maintain Body20's standards. In such cases, Body20 has the right to assign trainers to the studio to retrain employees and restore service levels. Alternatively, Body20 may require the franchisee or their employees to repeat initial training or attend additional training programs at a designated location.
This remedial training is in addition to any other rights and remedies Body20 has under the Franchise Agreement. The franchisee is responsible for the cost of this training, which is currently $500 per trainer per day, plus their travel and living expenses. Body20 retains the right to increase this fee in the future, although it will not exceed $1,000 per trainer per day.
For a prospective Body20 franchisee, this means that maintaining Body20's standards is crucial to avoid incurring additional expenses for remedial training. It also highlights the importance of ensuring that all employees are properly trained and adhere to Body20's operational guidelines. Franchisees should budget for the potential cost of remedial training and understand the conditions under which it may be required.
