Tips & Things to Know

  • Check if you're on a commitment plan - ETF charges can reach hundreds of pounds.
  • Consider freezing instead of cancelling if you may return within a few months.
  • Month-to-month memberships avoid early termination fees entirely.

Your Consumer Rights

  • State health club statutes in the US regulate gym membership cancellations and refund terms.
  • In Minnesota (Life Time's headquarters), specific gym cancellation laws protect members from predatory contract terms.
