Frequently asked question
How soon can I become a studio shareholder of MOVE?
It all comes down to your 3C's (Competency, Capacity, Character) to progress through the path to go from trainer > leadership > entrepreneurship. An individual who's high in all 3C's can expect to achieve studio shareholder within 1 year.
Why don't you consider franchising?
Great question!
It's tempting for us to think about growing fast and all the upsides that come with it. But time and time again, we've seen the rapid rise and fall of many fitness franchises where the outcomes weren't pretty.
Especially with us being in the personal training space, the quality of each and every interaction we have with our clients is paramount.
Therefore, it is important for us to still be in charge of the key pillars that make a personal training business success.
Additionally, we would like to have our studio partners being part of something bigger beyond studio startups by opening up roles and opportunities in HQ level or venture build new businesses together.
I have my client base which might be tough to transition too sudden too soon, what can we do about it?
Rest assured, many who have joined us were once in the same position as you. We understand the challenges of transition, which is why we’re committed to creating a smooth, mutually beneficial plan for you, your clients, and our team. Time and again, this approach has proven successful, ensuring a seamless shift while setting everyone up for long-term success.
I'm newly certified and haven't gotten any work experience yet, will I still make the cut?
If you believe you have ticked off the pre-requisites mentioned above as well as ready to fulfill all key responsibilities, then feel free to go ahead with the application process. The next few steps of the application process will then allow us to find that out the possibilities of working together.
I don't have any personal trainer certification, should I go for one before I apply?
We are more than happy to discover more about where you are at in terms of training experience, scientific knowledge, and the art of coaching. We will then refer you to a personal training certification that is the most suitable for you. In saying that, we will still not confirm a place for you until we have taken you through a full interview process.
What's the earning potential like?
At MOVE, we’ve designed our career path and payout structures with a deep understanding that success isn’t one-size-fits-all. Instead of rigid, generic models, we’ve built a system that adapts to each individual’s strengths, skills, and aspirations. This flexibility ensures that every coach has the opportunity to grow at their own pace while still aligning with our company’s dynamic, high-performance culture.
What truly sets us apart is our entrepreneurial mindset—at every level, we encourage ownership, initiative, and the drive to build something bigger. Whether you’re just starting or looking to scale your career, our approach rewards both expertise and ambition, creating a path where growth isn’t limited by tenure but fueled by capability and capacity.
The best part? Let's not just talk about active income because MOVE coaches can now take their earnings further with passive income coming in from yearly dividend payouts!
I don't have any studio management experience, can I still apply?
We believe that if the willingness and discipline are there, everything else can be learned. Therefore you will be taken through mentorship, a series of challenges and have to meet certain criteria over time to ensure you possess both the character and competency to lead and serve.
What are the growth opportunities like at MOVE?
MOVE was founded by a handful of industry veterans and leaders who wanted to change the game for the fitness industry. We believe there shouldn’t be a cap to the growth of our team members and therefore we have crafted a few possible paths for you to explore which will lead you to a more fulfilling and sustainable career even years later. Studio partnership is one thing, but there are many more opportunities which we will unveil together based on your character and competency. The question is, are you up for it?
I'm from a city/state/country that MOVE doesn't have its presence yet, can I still apply?
Absolutely! As our vision is to become a global personal training company by 2030, we are more than happy to explore the opportunity with you!
