"Biggest benefit is time, most classes range from 40-45 mins so you are not hanging around in a gym for hours."

How much can a studio make?
Every site differs with location, rent and membership mix, so we do not publish projections online. Studios earn from memberships, class packs, and team and private sessions. On your call we show how our existing studios trade and work out with you how many members a new site needs.
Is liquid capital the same as the total investment?
No. Liquid capital is the cash you can commit yourself, at least €100,000. The total of €232,000 to €332,000 includes costs that may be funded through finance.
Do I need fitness experience?
No, but you need to be comfortable running a customer-facing business. We train you and your team, and you can appoint a full-time studio manager.
Who trains at an Altipeak studio, and is it safe?
Members range from beginners returning to exercise to endurance athletes and mountaineers. Classes run at controlled levels set for each session, from around 1,500 metres for beginners, with trained staff.
What happens after I enquire?
We email you the franchise pack. If it looks like a fit, our franchise team arranges a call, and our founder Noel O'Brien speaks with every serious candidate.
