Membership Eligibility: Members must be 18 years or older. Minors may access the facilities if accompanied by a guardian or with written consent from a guardian.
Health Declaration: Fitness is not one-size-fits-all, and what's safe for one person might not be for another. That's why we require a health declaration from all our members. This isn't about invading your privacy; it's about ensuring you can exercise safely. By providing accurate health information, you enable us to recommend appropriate classes, equipment, and personal training services. This declaration helps us minimize risks and tailor your fitness journey to suit your health status. Remember, your health and safety are our utmost priorities, but we also need your cooperation to ensure a safe workout environment for everyone.

Your proactive approach could be crucial in preventing incidents or minimizing their impact.To reinforce the seriousness with which we approach this topic, failure to comply with emergency procedures, including obstructing the execution of these procedures or failing to follow staff instructions during drills or actual emergencies, may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of membership.

Governing Law: The Terms and Conditions set forth by Fitness 4 All are designed to create a fair, safe, and engaging environment for all our members and staff. To ensure clarity and legal enforceability, these terms are governed exclusively by the laws of New South Wales (NSW), Australia. This choice of law is crucial as it determines the legal framework under which our gym operates, including but not limited to issues related to membership agreements, liability, privacy, and intellectual property rights.This jurisdictional choice means that any legal disputes, misunderstandings, or claims arising from or related to the Terms and Conditions of Fitness 4 All, or breaches thereof, will be adjudicated only in the courts of NSW.

Payment of Fees: Membership at Fitness 4 All represents not just access to our premier facilities and services, but also a commitment to mutual respect and responsibility between our gym and its members.

In such cases, we encourage our members to communicate with us proactively. Early communication allows us to understand your situation and, where possible, work together to find a solution that avoids any interruption to your gym access.However, failure to pay membership and service fees without communication or arrangement can result in additional charges. These charges are not intended as a penalty, but rather to cover the administrative costs associated with late payments and to encourage timely resolution of outstanding balances. Prolonged failure to address late payments, despite our efforts to contact and work with you, may lead to the suspension of gym services. This includes access to the gym facilities, personal training sessions, and any other services provided by Fitness 4 All.Reactivation of services after suspension due to non-payment will require settling the outstanding balance, including any additional charges incurred due to late payment. In some cases, it may also require a re-assessment of your membership status and a discussion on how to prevent future payment issues.Our goal is not to penalize our members but to ensure a sustainable operation that allows us to continue offering high-quality services and facilities.
