Why Go To Work When You Can Go To The Gym?

Just ask any of our tens of thousands of satisfied customers, as soon as they laid eyes on a Fit Zone for Women®, they knew it was exactly what they had been looking for. That's why most of our franchisees were originally members of a Fit Zone for Women!

Fit Zone for Women is a health club that was designed exclusively for women, by women. With over 35 years of experience owning and operating health clubs, Gretchen Shannon, our President and CEO, along with a panel of female health experts, designed Fit Zone for Women to be a true full-service alternative to the standard fare of circuit-only facilities that offer little function or value to its customers. Our combination of state-of-the-art circuit training equipment, cardio machines, a wide variety of aerobic/group exercise classes, and a commitment to deliver top-notch customer service is why Fit Zone for Women is not only one of the fastest growing health club franchises but was also recognized by Franchise Market Magazine in 2006 as one of the Top 100 New Franchises out of over 1,000 franchise concepts introduced from 2000-2006 and again in 2007 as one of the Top 100 New Franchises introduced in 2006.

And with our exclusive 1-2 New You^TM customized weight-loss and nutrition program, you're able to offer a one-stop solution to women's health, fitness and weight-loss needs…it's like getting two franchises for one price!
