Case study
Introduction
Bounce Fitness is made up of four fitness centres. Head office is currently established in Cairns, Queensland. The
other centres are in Brisbane, (Queensland), Sydney, (New South Wales) and Melbourne, (Victoria). It is the intention
of the Board of Directors that a new centre will be opened in Perth, (Western Australia).
It was established in 2001 by Margaret House as a single aerobic studio. After two years membership increases
demanded the small, leased centre be expanded and a new facility was built on land purchased by the organisation. In
2004 a second centre was established in leased premises in Brisbane and then Sydney and Melbourne in the
subsequent two years.
The Head Office remains in Cairns and a Board of Directors has been established to oversee the function of the
business in all the centres. Each centre has a manager, who reports to the CEO in Cairns, and a team of permanently
employed fitness instructors and other casual instructors, all of whom report to the Centre Manager. The business is
operated on best business practice and complies with all legislative requirements, local by-laws and is registered with
the national body.
Bounce Fitness intends to market its brand through excellence in service and expertise to establish itself as a premier
provider of fitness and wellness in Australia. Much time is invested in training the Centre staff to upgrade their
professional skills and in customer service to foster a loyal member base. Classes are innovative and varied with
regular changes to routines and activities.
Bounce Fitness has developed choreographed fitness moves with accompanying music which is geared to the varying
interests, needs and goals of the member group. It is intended that all around Australia, gym and fitness centre
members will continue to be enhancing personal performance through classes designed and produced by this
business. Classes are coupled with state-of-the-art fitness equipment to cater to those who prefer resistance training to
aerobic workouts. Additional free weights allow for use by even die-hard lifters.
All centres are carpeted in areas used for stationary activities, spacious, well-ventilated, and air-conditioned to make
the environment as safe and comfortable as possible. They are light and feature wrap-around mirrored walls. The
decor was designed by a Brisbane firm and is updated every three years. There are showers, toilets, lockers.
Tasks and activities in this project assessment require you to have access to a workplace or a similar environment.

The Practical Assessment is a set of tasks that must be completed in a workplace, or in an environment with conditions

Each centre features a retail section selling fitness shoes, clothes, and other related fitness items. There is a small
cafeteria which is leased to a provider who supplies healthy, low-calorie drinks and light food. Each Centre has regularly
scheduled aerobic classes ranging from high intensity to low intensity. The scheduling is left to each Centre but must
sustain a minimum average of twelve in each class for them to continue to be held. The style of classes changes as new
methods are developed to sustain interest and provide variety.
Circuit classes are also scheduled for groups who move in a circuitous rotation around the different resistance
equipment sequentially as instructed by the instructor. They are required to complete interval aerobic exercises during
the completion of a class to enhance the value of the workout. Very low intensity classes are also held in age care
facilities to keep residents active and incorporate light weights to keep them healthy. This exercise contributes to the
physical and mental health of participants as well as providing an interest in their day.
Special classes are held in high schools for senior students, sheltered workshops and other special situations as
requested and are operated at minimal or no cost as a community service. Funding is primarily from memberships.
Memberships are sold on one-, three-, six- and twelve-monthly basis on a decreasing fee scale. Casual members are
welcome, but the daily rate is a premium one.
Each Centre sells memberships to 120%. This means that at peak times it could be quite crowded, but experience
demonstrates that there is a maximum of 80% usage. The retail arm of the business accounts for about 30% of the
takings from each centre. The strategic plan for retail is set to increase investment in sales this year to 35%. Each Centre
will be given a budget to develop and implement a sales and marketing plan to trial. The most successful may be
implemented nationally and will attract an incentive for the most successful Centre. The catering facilities are currently
leased to private operators, and this is reconsidered during each annual planning session by the Board, which produces
5% of the income, less than the rent off-set.
