What sets Excel Fitness, the 2019 Franchisee of the Year, apart from the rest is the people.
Excel Fitness puts people first, whether it's the members in our clubs or the front desk staff, we believe that the relationships we foster make us great. And what makes working for Excel Fitness different from anywhere else, are those very same relationships.
Excel Fitness is Rapidly Growing and new opportunities are always arising.
As a rapidly growing company, we focus on the growth of our employees. We want to develop our team to be the best that they can be by instilling strong core values that can be applied within and outside of Excel Fitness.

We’re a platform built for growth, engrained in a brand that’s disrupting an industry and changing the way fitness is introduced to millions. Every smile we exchange reminds us of the lives we positively impact. From each ‘Hello’ and ‘Goodbye’ at the front desk to the partnership and collaboration in our back office, we win as one team, one planet.
And we have only scratched the surface. Excel Fitness will continue to be strategic in our growth, aggressive in our marketing, and world-class in our customer service. We’ll lean on the team we’ve built around us as inspiration and to guarantee individuals feel welcome and valued. Our mission and core values are our North Star ensuring we’re diversified in our policies and operate with humility and integrity.
