If you're interested in becoming licensed to start your own Geri-Fit business,
read on.
Instructors can purchase an Individual Instructor License
which allows you to teach the Geri-Fit evidence-based program
at locations you cultivate within a 25-mile radius of where you live. Some examples of license use would be if you are currently teaching Zumba, Tai Chi, or Yoga at a yoga studio or senior center and you'd like to now offer Geri-Fit.
The license allows you the right to use the
Geri-Fit® trademark brand name and other
intellectual property such as the evidence-based lesson plans, the client
handouts, and other marketing materials that bear the Geri-Fit logo.
As a Geri-Fit licensee, you'll receive:
- Use of the Geri-Fit® logo to distinguish
branding, quality and name recognition
- The Geri-Fit® evidence-based group exercise
program workouts and Geri-Fit® Private Lessons
workouts
- Access to our online training center so that you can get certified to teach
Geri-Fit*
- Logos, photos, and attractive marketing materials to help promote and
advertise your Geri-Fit® exercise classes
- Customized client waivers, handouts and other useful literature
- Sample letters, proposals, contracts and agreements that you can use to
effectively grow your business
- Free online support to help answer questions you may have after you
purchase the license
- Ability to accept insurance coverage (Silver Sneakers and Silver&Fit) so
that seniors can take Geri-Fit classes for free (optional)
- A free link on gerifit.com which has your contact information for
Geri-Fit® classes held at facilities where you
are teaching class
License fees are a one-time fee of $950 and includes complete online training and
certification for one instructor. After year one, there is an annual license
renewal fee of $150. There are no other fees, royalties or hidden costs. We make
it very simple to offer this turnkey program.
If you want additional instructors trained and certified that will work under your license, online training fees are $350 for each instructor. Please note that we do not allow licensed instructors to train/certify other new instructors due to program fidelity requirements. All instructors must go through the gold standard Geri-Fit Online National Instructor Training program in order to get their Certificate of Completion and Goodstanding.
We are small business friendly and offer three other types of business licenses depending on the growth of the business, its geographical coverage area, and needs. These are the Small Business License, the Mid-Size Business License, and the Large Scale Business License. Each is quoted separately and is dependent on how many instructors will be trained in Geri-Fit, how many locations will be offering live classes, and the scope of the territory you are operating in or plan to cultivate. Contact us for details.
