Lion’s Pride Fitness LLC257 Riley Way, Smithfield, Virginia 23430
This Online Fitness Coaching Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into between Lion’s Pride Fitness LLC, operating as Lion’s Pride Fitness (“Company”), and the undersigned client (“Client”). The effective date is the date of the last signature below.
1. Selected Services and Term
The Company will provide the services identified below and in any written program summary incorporated into this Agreement. Coaching may include exercise programming, mobility and flexibility work, general nutrition education, accountability, check-ins, form review, progress tracking, and reasonable program adjustments.
2. Professional Scope
The services are fitness coaching and general wellness education, not medical care, diagnosis, treatment, physical therapy, psychotherapy, or medical nutrition therapy. The Company does not prescribe medication or treat disease. Client must consult an appropriately licensed healthcare professional regarding medical concerns and obtain clearance when recommended.
3. Payment and Automatic Monthly Continuation
Unless a fixed written term is selected, monthly coaching continues and the payment method on file will be charged each billing cycle until Client cancels in accordance with Section 4. By signing, Client affirmatively authorizes recurring monthly charges for the price listed above. No price increase will take effect without advance written notice. Failed payments may pause services until resolved. The Company may use a third-party payment processor subject to that processor’s terms.
4. Ordinary Cancellation
After any statutory cancellation period, Client may cancel monthly coaching by giving at least 14 calendar days’ written notice before the next billing date. Notice may be emailed to lionspridefitnessllc@gmail.com or mailed/delivered to Lion’s Pride Fitness LLC, 257 Riley Way, Smithfield, Virginia 23430. Cancellation by email is effective when received. Cancellation is not conditioned on a telephone call or meeting. If notice is received fewer than 14 days before the next billing date, the next scheduled payment may be charged and services will continue through that paid period.
5. Buyer’s Right to Cancel
IF THE VIRGINIA HEALTH CLUB ACT APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MAY CANCEL THIS CONTRACT WITHOUT PENALTY BY MAKING OR DELIVERING WRITTEN NOTICE BEFORE MIDNIGHT OF THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY AFTER YOU SIGN IT.
The notice must state that you do not wish to be bound by the Agreement and must be delivered, mailed, or emailed to Lion’s Pride Fitness LLC at the address or email stated in Section 4. If timely canceled, money paid will be refunded as required by applicable law. Any additional cancellation rights for death, qualifying physical disability, closure, or other circumstances remain available to the extent required by applicable law.
6. Refunds
Except for refunds required by law or expressly approved in writing, fees for coaching periods already started, delivered customized programs, and completed services are non-refundable. Nothing in this Agreement eliminates a nonwaivable consumer right. Approved refunds will be processed within the time required by applicable law.
7. Scheduling and Communication
Client will use approved scheduling and communication channels. A coaching call canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice may be forfeited, except for emergencies at the Company’s discretion. Messaging is not monitored continuously and must not be used for emergencies.
8. Client Responsibilities
- Provide complete and accurate health, injury, medication, and fitness information and promptly report changes.
- Exercise in a reasonably safe area using properly maintained equipment.
- Follow instructions, use reasonable judgment, and request alternatives when needed.
- Stop activity and seek appropriate care for pain, dizziness, chest discomfort, faintness, unusual shortness of breath, or other concerning symptoms.
- Complete check-ins honestly and understand that results depend on factors outside the Company’s control.
9. No Guarantee
Individual results vary based on health, effort, consistency, nutrition, sleep, stress, genetics, and other factors. The Company does not promise a particular weight, appearance, performance level, medical outcome, or completion date.
10. Online-Coaching Limitations
Online coaching does not provide continuous or in-person supervision. The Company cannot physically inspect Client’s environment, equipment, or movement. Client remains responsible for determining whether an activity can be performed safely and for requesting clarification or modification.
11. Intellectual Property
Programs, videos, documents, and branded materials are licensed to Client solely for personal, noncommercial use during coaching. They may not be copied, sold, published, distributed, or used to coach another person without written permission.
12. Privacy and Publicity
The Company will use reasonable safeguards for personal information and will collect only information reasonably related to coaching and safety. Client authorizes use of information to deliver services and administer the business. Testimonials, progress photographs, recordings, or identifying transformation information require a separate, optional written media release. Client should not send sensitive medical records through ordinary email. See the separate Privacy Notice.
13. Termination
The Company may suspend or terminate coaching for nonpayment, material dishonesty, harassment, threats, unsafe behavior, unlawful conduct, repeated failure to follow essential safety instructions, or material breach. Any refund following Company termination will be determined according to services delivered and applicable law.
14. Disputes and Virginia Law
The parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve a dispute through written communication. Virginia law governs this Agreement to the extent permitted. Any court proceeding must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction and venue. This provision does not prevent either party from using a lawful consumer complaint process or small-claims court when eligible.
15. General Terms
This Agreement, the signed waiver, any applicable minor consent form, accepted program summary, and Privacy Notice constitute the agreement between the parties. Amendments must be written and accepted by both parties. If a provision is unenforceable, it will be limited or removed to the minimum necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue. A delay in enforcing a right is not a waiver. Electronic signatures and counterparts are intended to have the same effect as originals.
16. Acknowledgments and Electronic Consent
Client should retain a completed copy of this Agreement. Do not sign until every blank applicable to price, services, and dates is completed.
