Contours Express isthe only ladies fitness chain who is a member of the British Franchise Association and Fitness Industry Association.
Express ladies gyms are one of the fastest growing franchise ideas in the world. There is a large market representing women who believe in the positive benefits of regular exercise, but have not participated for various reasons. At Contours Express we help to eliminate these reasons by providing an affordable, fast, and effective workout in a fun and comfortable environment for women. With the media and government focus on health, fitness and weight loss, this is a good time to start a Contours Express franchise.
