Run the math
Say you charge $120 per session.
A lot of trainers assume hourly studio rental is more expensive than staying at a big-box gym. A flat hourly rate looks larger than a monthly gym fee on paper. But a gym contract is not just a fee. It is a revenue split. Run the numbers before assuming the answer.
Your gym takes 30%. That is $36 gone on every session before you see a cent. At 10 sessions a week, that is $360 per week ($1,440 every single month), leaving your pocket and going into theirs.
At Mavericks, you pay a flat hourly access rate and keep everything you earn. Set your own rates. Run your own packages. The studio does not participate in your revenue.
You keep 100% of every dollar you earn. You set your rates. You run your schedule. The studio works for you, not the other way around.
