My Gym®
What Is My Gym?
My Gym is a franchise of children’s fitness centers that offers programs such as pre-gymnastics, tumbling, fine and gross motor skills, sport skills, stretching, and group interactive activities, and may also sell equipment, clothing, toys and other items. The operational model is primarily brick-and-mortar Fixed Centers (approximately 2,000–3,000 sq ft) with the franchisor-approved option to add a Mobile Business delivering services and products to institutional facilities via branded vehicles. The primary target customers are children (generally ages 3 months through 13 years) and their parents (B2C), while the Mobile Business can serve institutional clients (B2B). Core assets include the My Gym System—uniform formats, signs, equipment, layouts, and the Confidential Operating Manuals—and franchisor-supplied or leased equipment and related items.
My Gym Franchise: Pros and Cons
This franchise's standout strength is a spotless legal record—zero disclosed lawsuits, zero government penalties, and no franchisee-initiated judgments or settlements—paired with 213 hours of initial training and a Training and Support score of 100; its main risk is unusually high operator turnover, evidenced by six reacquired outlets in Children's Services.
Pros
Cons
Lawsuits & Legal Risk
The franchise reported no material legal proceedings.
Territory Protection
Grants a protected operating area where the franchisor will not place other physical units. Franchisor retains rights to sell via e‑commerce and alternative channels, develop additional units, acquire and convert units, operate under different trademarks and retail/venue channels, and reduce protections contingent on meeting performance quotas; franchisee retains site-specific relocation rights.
Training & Support
The brand delivers a comprehensive 213-hour training curriculum designed to provide a deep-dive preparation for three managerial staff members ahead of launch. The program includes on-site launch support focused on operational readiness; on-site assistance is available at an additional cost, and travel and lodging expenses are the responsibility of the franchisee.
Unit Growth Analysis
Unit count was 166 in 2023, dipped to 161 in 2024 (−5 units, ≈−3.0%), then recovered to 166 in 2025 (+5 units, +3.1%), leaving net zero change over the period — so the trajectory is effectively stable with a recent rebound. For investors this signals resilience (the system recovered lost locations) but limited expansion capacity — the swing from −3.0% to +3.1% is notable short‑term volatility rather than sustained, accelerating growth.
