Orangetheory

Orangetheory Fitness franchises operate health and fitness studios that provide members with access to cardio and strength training equipment in a contemporary, orange-themed atmosphere under the ORANGETHEORY® trademarks. Franchisees follow a comprehensive system including specific studio designs, equipment specifications, operating procedures, training, and marketing techniques developed by the franchisor and affiliates. The business targets adults aged 18-60, though open to customers above age 13, in competitive fitness markets with a focus on group fitness experiences.
