California Fitness Academy: Comprehensive Fitness Training for All Levels

In the early 2000s, the companies began expanding internationally. In Asia, CalFit clubs were rolled into the separate brand California WOW Xperience (set: CAWOW). In 2008, the club chain abruptly closed its doors in Korea for financial reasons, stranding members who had been sold expensive lifetime memberships. In Singapore, several complaints were filed with consumer watchdog Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) by CalFit club members, some who had purchased lifetime contracts. The Malaysian clubs were later sold to Celebrity Fitness, a separate company with links to 24 Hour Fitness founders. This allowed them to continue operating in Malaysia after the closure of the CalFit-branded facilities.
