AKT Franchise Disclosure Document

AKT is a boutique fitness studio franchise offering group fitness classes rooted in dance-based cardio, strength training, and circuit workouts. Founded in 2013 by celebrity trainer Anna Kaiser, AKT is part of the Xponential Fitness portfolio. It operates locations across urban and suburban areas in the U.S., targeting a customer base interested in structured, music-driven workouts. The franchise model is built around recurring revenue through membership subscriptions and class packages. While it requires a moderate to high initial investment due to studio build-out and equipment, AKT offers a semi-passive ownership model with support in staffing, marketing, and training. Franchisees typically need strong local marketing to build a loyal member base, and profitability is tied to class capacity and retention.

With nearly 40,000 FDDs collected over the past 25+ years, our growing database is maintained and enriched by a dedicated information management team that ensures accuracy, completeness, and timely updates. Just as important, FRANdata understands that while FDDs offer a wealth of standardized information, they may not address every question a stakeholder has—particularly when it comes to franchise performance, operational nuances, or long-term growth potential. That's why we complement the information in FDDs with broader research and advisory capabilities, helping clients interpret what's there, understand the context, and access deeper insights when needed.
