Fitness Space – Never Train Alone
CEO Tim Benjamin spent the first part of his career pounding the track as a professional 400m athlete. With access to some of the world’s best fitness and health experts he trained hard, following bespoke programmes to achieve record breaking results.
His experience has shaped the concept and philosophy of what the Fitness Space exists for today: Never Train Alone.
He identified an absence in training support and guidance for the masses embarking on their fitness journey and the need for a result-orientated, fitness studio. He set to work in creating a vision where members are supported every step, every beat, every breath, with a dedicated Fitness Coach and connectivity to innovative technology. This new way of thinking challenged the gym-industry norms and tackled ‘gymtimidation’.
The flagship Fitness Space studio was opened in Ascot, followed by the first franchise-owned premises in Hughenden Valley. Fitness Space was born.
Since then Fitness Space has gone from strength-to-strength, with 22 studios now open across the UK and many opening soon.
Fitness Space is a boutique concept. Our service-orientated studios flourish in competition rich areas. Our offering is differentiated from the rest of the industry; it not only appeals to the 14.9% of people who are already fitness enthusiasts but the 26% of the UK population who would consider joining a health club but feel intimidated.
Our business model is based on commercial premises ranging from 2,000 – 4,000 sq. ft., enabling occupancy of key high street locations, and at a cost considerably lower rate than traditional gyms.
Unlike competitors, we offer flexibility in territory selection. Our ethos is to empower an individual to run a business in a mass market.
Fitness Space franchise owners get access to exclusively low rates with our strategic partner network, driving significant cost efficiencies for our franchisees, every stage of the Fitness Space ownership journey.
From an investment perspective, there has never been a better time to enter the fitness market – a growth industry fuelled by media and social, driving our awareness and knowledge of the importance of health and fitness, rising consumer demand and technological developments. Coupled with the concept created by Fitness Space, and the franchise package on offer – the speed of scalability, timeframe to opening and consistent profitability – a Fitness Space franchise is one of the most compelling business options available today.
