FAQ

Questions about rental gyms and private studios

What is a rental gym in Japan?

A small private gym you book by the hour, like a meeting room with a power rack. There is no membership or monthly fee: you pay for the slot, and the room is yours alone.

How much does the rental gym itself cost?

Typically a few thousand yen per hour for the room, depending on the space, its equipment and the time of day. We confirm the fee with you before booking.

Do I need a gym membership or any Japanese?

No. You do not join anything, and we handle the booking in Japanese. Coaching is in English from the first message.

Are tattoos allowed?

Each gym sets its own policy. Tell us and we find a private gym that allows tattoos.

Can I train at a FIT STAGE studio instead?

Yes. We run three private studios: Esaka in Suita, and Shonai and Sone-Shiroyama in Toyonaka. Studio sessions follow the studio price list and carry a one-time enrolment fee, currently ¥5,500. We confirm the total before you book.
