Company Summary
Fitness studios, in healthclubs throughout the USA, are used by members only a fraction of time during the day; many under 50%. All other times they remain unused or even closed. As many studios are in small privately-owned businesses, the competition is fierce and margins are low. Renting the unused studio to non-members or unaffiliated trainers can increase revenue for the small privately-owned business substantially.
