Question for those who charge a flat monthly rate
For those of you who charge a flat monthly rate, how do you handle missed sessions? I’m especially curious about vacations, extended vacations (over a week), work conflicts clients know about ahead of time, same-day sick days, or someone being sick for several days in a row. Do you offer reschedules? If so, how flexible are you with them? I’d love to hear how others structure this while maintaining “my monthly rate reserves my recurring spot in your schedule” back toward tracking and counting individual sessions to accommodate absences. And if anyone has written cancellation/rescheduling policies they’re willing to share, I’d really appreciate seeing them so I can compare them to mine.

@Logan Bayless I have a friend of mine in this same position. She was a client of mine, then became a trainer at my gym. She's working some evenings and weekends but it's hard to take that leap especially when you don't have a savings buffer.
What is your Session Price?
What is your personal training session price? Please comment below using this format: 1) If you have different session prices based on purchase volume (eg 3m, 6m, 12m etc) or frequency (eg 1x a week vs 2x a week), please provide a blended mean average. 2) If your session length is different to 30-minutes, please mention in your comment.

I charge monthly. $330/mo for 2x/week and $175/mo for 1x/week. If someone needs or wants drop in sessions...$45/ session depending on schedule availability. I train 1-2 ppl per session. Price is the same if the spot has 2 ppl or 1.

@Lawrence Neal looking forward to any suggestions you have- I'm always open to improving my structures especially if it makes it easier for both me and clients. :)

Small group training
Our gym is thinking of starting small group sessions. Any suggestions on how to run those? Currently we do exclusively 1 on 1 and set machines for all clients, so not sure how to run a small group.

I often train 2 people per session, sometimes 3, and honestly I’ve found it to be an ideal work/rest ratio for clients. I’ll usually start everyone with a DB squat & press variation to true failure, then roll into the rest of the full-body session. While I’m coaching one person through a hard set, the others are resting - but they’re also learning by watching someone else get coached. A lot of technique and effort education happens just from that alone. I also strategically plug in movements that don’t require my full eyes-on attention while I’m coaching another set...things like push-ups, walking lunges, planks, ball slams, bike sprints, sled pushes, or jump rope. That keeps the flow moving without sacrificing quality. Most of my clients actually prefer the partner setup over true 1:1. They get the coaching, the accountability, and a little shared energy, while I can still individualize load, progression, and modifications for each person. We also run two 30-minute DB/bodyweight classes per week with anywhere from 8–20 people. Everyone performs the same movement together, usually on 60–90 second timed sets, moving through a full-body circuit with very little rest beyond transitions - goal is failure or near failure within the time given. Hope that helps- happy to expand more if you want.
