Joining fees are applied to cover the initial administration costs associated with setting up a new membership and direct debit agreement and entitle the member to an induction session, bookable online.
If you are looking to upgrade your membership, an admin fee shall be charged at the point at which your membership is upgraded.
You must provide us with one or more current, accepted, and valid payment method.
Unless you cancel your membership, you authorize us to charge the membership fees for the next billing cycle to your payment method.

Subsequent monthly payment for monthly membership fees will be collected monthly thereafter.
We reserve the right to increase the membership price at any time, or upon the expiration of the branch's promotional period, for memberships that are under promotions with joining fees or discounts at specific gyms during promotional periods. During this time, you will retain your usual right to terminate your membership in accordance with the membership terms, conditions, and rules. If you do not terminate the membership by the date specified in the notice, it will be considered as your acceptance of the new price, and therefore, your membership price will be increased accordingly.
If any payment is returned, unpaid or if any other form of payment is not honored for whatever reason, you agree to pay us the outstanding payment. If, despite us having notified you of a missed payment, further payments are missed, we reserve the right to, at our sole election, to either suspend or terminate your membership, upon having given you written notice of our intention to do so.
