Body_Brain_Center Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
ing Program** (Section 5 and Training Agreement)
We will provide an initial training program of approximately 30 hours over 5 to 9 days. We anticipate most franchisees will send between 1 and 2 people to training. All of your Owners and managers must successfully complete the initial training program to our satisfaction. We expect that most franchisees will not have multiple owners and will not hire managers at the initial phase of development. You are not required to attend or complete training within any minimum period of time after signing the Franchise Agreement or prior to opening. However, you cannot open your Center until you have successfully completed training by attending all hours of classroom training in every required subject (you must open your Center within 2 years after signing the Franchise Agreement, unless we grant you an extension of up to 2 additional years).
The initial training program will take place at a retreat in Sedona, Arizona (currently Sedona Mago Retreat Center) or Ellenville, New York (currently Honor's Haven Retreat & Conference) or another training location we select at our discretion or in an online format. Currently, we intend to offer the initial training program at least 4 times per year.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Body Brain Center's FDD does not specify whether on-the-job training is provided for Consultation training. The document outlines the initial and ongoing training programs, but it does not detail the specific format or content of the Consultation training.
Item 11 discusses the initial training program, which consists of approximately 30 hours over 5 to 9 days. This training takes place at a retreat in Sedona, Arizona, Ellenville, New York, or another location selected by Body & Brain, or in an online format. The FDD mentions that the training materials include a Manual, Merchandise Book, and lectures. The instructors for the training program are Jeong Hee Jeon and Eun Jeong Lee.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of the Consultation training, a prospective franchisee should inquire directly with Body Brain Center about the availability of on-the-job training, the curriculum, and the specific skills that will be taught. This will help in assessing the level of support and preparation provided for franchisees.
