The full-body workout franchise has managed to prosper during the pandemic.
AKT, the workout franchise founded by fitness expert and celebrity trainer Anna Kaiser, has announced that it recently surpassed 100 signed franchise agreements. This comes after the brand continued signing multiple deals throughout the past few months, despite the ongoing pandemic affecting many health-focused businesses.
“We believe AKT has maintained steady growth during the economic challenges the pandemic has presented because for so many people, fitness is more than just an hour of their day – it’s a lifestyle,” said Melissa Chordock, president of AKT.
To date, the Xponential Fitness-backed brand has over 15 studios open, with recent deals bringing AKT to markets including Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Northern Virginia, and Los Angeles.
The brand was initially introduced in New York City, and offers full-body workouts at a variety of fitness levels, all focused on AKT’s four core modalities: DANCE, BANDS, CIRCUIT, and TONE.
“With our programming tailored to all fitness levels, a robust on-demand presence to complement in-studio workouts and topnotch cleaning and safety procedures in all of our locations, we are confident AKT will continue to be a place people go to grow stronger bodies and minds,” said Chordock.
