After 13 years, Listen To Your Body (LTYB) achieved its long term goal to develop our unique Group Personalised training model into a Franchise system.
LTYB franchised the operation to provide opportunities to be part of the LTYB Brand and to provide a business model that more members across Australia can access.
The LTYB Model differentiates from other systems due to the unique individualised service offering to members. Our studios are appointment only with each member having a Personal Trainer in every session.
We pride ourselves on searching for Franchise Partners who strongly believe in Health and Fitness, can see themselves changing member’s lives and willing to work hard in all aspects of the business.
