Studio Rental Agreement & Terms and Conditions
Tonico Studio Ltd · 29a Adam and Eve Mews, W8 6UG, London

These Terms and Conditions govern the relationship between Tonico Studio Ltd (trading as Tonico Studio) and all self-employed personal trainers and professionals renting studio space. Tonico fosters an environment based on mutual respect, professionalism, and collaboration. The Trainer is an independent, self-employed professional — not an employee, agent, or representative of Tonico Studio or its directors.

01 Use of the Studio
The studio is rented on an hourly basis. Trainers must adhere strictly to their booked time slot. Trainers may arrive up to 5 minutes early to prepare and welcome their clients. The studio is to be used exclusively for personal training sessions — it must not be used as an office, canteen, or for any other commercial activity beyond agreed personal training. Trainers must not engage in any activity that generates income beyond the agreed sessions conducted within the studio. Access to the studio and continued use of the space is at the discretion of Tonico Studio. Non-compliance with these Terms may result in immediate suspension or permanent exclusion. Trainers must not share, sublet, or transfer studio access to any third party under any circumstances.
02 Right to Refuse or Withdraw Access
Tonico Studio reserves the absolute right to refuse, suspend, or permanently withdraw studio access from any individual — including trainers, their clients, or any associated parties — at any time and without prior notice. This right may be exercised where Tonico Studio reasonably believes that the individual’s conduct, attitude, values, or professional standards are no longer aligned with the ethos and standards of the studio, even in the absence of a specific rule breach. Examples of conduct that may result in access being withdrawn include:
  • Behaviour that is disrespectful, disruptive, or detrimental to the studio environment
  • Conduct that conflicts with the professional reputation or values of Tonico Studio
  • Repeated failure to comply with studio rules or reasonable requests from management
  • Actions that could bring the studio into disrepute
Where access is withdrawn, any unused prepaid slots will be refunded on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of Tonico Studio. Tonico Studio will not be liable for any loss of income, business, or opportunity arising from the exercise of this right.
03 Client Responsibility
The Trainer is fully and solely responsible for their own clients while operating within the studio. This includes:
  • Their clients’ safety, wellbeing, and medical clearance to train
  • The conduct, actions, and consequences of those clients within the studio
  • Collection of payments, handling of personal data, and resolution of any client disputes
Tonico Studio and its directors accept no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the clients of the Trainer. The Trainer must ensure their clients are aware of and comply with studio rules at all times. Any breach by a client may be treated as a breach by the Trainer.
04 Insurance & Legal Compliance
The Trainer must maintain valid and appropriate insurance at all times, including Public Liability Insurance and Professional Indemnity Insurance. Evidence of valid insurance must be provided to Tonico Studio upon request and before commencing any sessions. The Trainer is personally responsible for ensuring they meet all legal requirements to operate as a self-employed personal trainer in the United Kingdom, including tax registration, relevant qualifications, and data protection compliance. Any failure to comply with legal or insurance obligations will not be attributed to Tonico Studio or its directors.
05 Liability & Indemnity
Tonico Studio Ltd and its directors accept no responsibility, liability, or obligation for: the Trainer’s conduct or professional services; any harm, injury, loss, or damage suffered by the Trainer’s clients; any breach of law or professional regulation by the Trainer; or loss or damage to the Trainer’s personal equipment or belongings. The Trainer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tonico Studio Ltd and its directors from any claims, demands, damages, liabilities, costs, or legal actions resulting from the Trainer’s actions or omissions, client complaints, injuries, or property damage, or non-compliance with legal, insurance, or professional obligations.
06 Slot Management & Booking
Advance payment is required for slot packages (minimum of 20 one-hour slots). Trainers must monitor their slot balance carefully to avoid running into a negative balance. Slot booking operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Trainers may discuss fixed recurring weekly slots directly with the studio. Slot packages are non-refundable, except where access is withdrawn under Clause 2. Slot packages are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase. All slots must be booked via the Tonico app calendar prior to conducting sessions. Cancellations and changes must be made at least 24 hours in advance via the Tonico app — late cancellations may result in the slot being forfeited.
07 Studio Rules & Etiquette
All trainers are expected to contribute positively to the shared workspace and uphold a professional, respectful environment at all times. Trainers should follow studio rules independently, without requiring repeated reminders or management. Key rules include:
  • Use the coat stand upstairs and wardrobe downstairs for personal belongings
  • Keep all reception and gym floor areas clean and tidy
  • Phones and water bottles should be placed on the designated shelf with wireless chargers
  • Bicycles and other vehicles are not permitted inside the studio (foldable bicycles excepted)
  • Noise must be kept to a minimum outside the studio, particularly during early morning and late evening sessions
  • Dispose of all waste appropriately — no empty bottles, cups, or waste items left behind
  • If last to leave: ensure all windows are closed and all lights and music are switched off
  • Return all equipment to its designated position after use
  • Sanitise all mats and benches thoroughly after each use
  • Only water and mobile phones are permitted on the gym floor — no food, glass bottles, or other beverages
  • To book the upstairs room for client consultations, message the studio at least 24 hours in advance
  • Use the designated iPhone on the gym floor to play music via the Spotify app — select playlists from the provided library only
08 Health & Safety
All trainers must hold valid personal liability insurance covering all activities conducted within the studio. Trainers are fully responsible for their clients’ safety and must adhere to professional health and safety standards at all times. Any accidents, injuries, or incidents occurring within the studio must be reported to Tonico Studio immediately. Trainers must not allow any client to train if there are reasonable grounds to believe doing so presents a risk to that client’s health or safety.
09 Communication & Feedback
Trainers must remain reachable and responsive via the email address and WhatsApp contact provided to Tonico. Tonico will only contact trainers when necessary and will keep communication concise and professional. Feedback from trainers is encouraged and valued. Any concerns should be raised directly and promptly.
10 Termination
This agreement may be terminated immediately by Tonico Studio in the event of: a breach of any of the terms set out in this agreement; evidence of unsafe, unethical, or unlawful conduct; or exercise of the right to withdraw access under Clause 2. The Trainer may terminate this agreement by providing written notice to Tonico Studio. Any unused prepaid slots will not be refunded unless otherwise agreed in writing.
11 Amendments
These Terms and Conditions may be updated periodically to reflect the growth and evolving needs of Tonico Studio. Trainers will be notified of any material changes in advance. Continued use of the studio following notification of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
12 Additional Provisions
Data Protection: The Trainer is solely responsible for complying with all applicable data protection legislation, including the UK GDPR, in relation to their clients’ personal data. Tonico Studio is not responsible for any data held or processed by the Trainer.

Governing Law: This agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from this agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Entire Agreement: This document constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior discussions, representations, or agreements.

Giacomo Tonico — Founder of Tonico Health & Performance
Giacomo Tonico · Founder · Kensington, London

Giacomo Tonico

Sport Science Graduate  ·  Olympic Wrestler  ·  Bareknuckle Fighter

Giacomo Tonico is one of the UK's leading authorities in performance-driven fitness — a Sport Science graduate, former Olympic wrestler, and bareknuckle fighter. He is the founder behind Tonico Health & Performance, London's boutique destination for results-oriented training where discipline, precision, and progress converge.

With a rare combination of competitive experience, academic knowledge, and years of hands-on coaching, Giacomo has developed the Tonico Method — a science-led, minimalist approach to training that prioritises doing fewer things, but doing them exceptionally well. His philosophy treats every client like an athlete, focusing on measurable results and a structured, disciplined path to strength, mobility, and overall wellbeing.

Giacomo's journey in fitness began in sport. Years of competitive wrestling and fighting honed his understanding of the human body, performance optimisation, and the mental resilience required to succeed. When he moved to London in 2017, he channelled this expertise into personal training — refining his method through hundreds of client sessions and observing firsthand what truly drives transformation.

In 2022, Giacomo opened his first personal training studio in Kensington, earning glowing reviews for its clean, professional environment, knowledgeable trainers, and transformative approach. Building on that success, he launched Tonico Health & Performance — a larger gym space offering unlimited access, personal training, nutrition guidance, massage therapy, and a café serving nutritious food and drinks, fostering both performance and community.

For Giacomo, fitness is never just about the body. It's about sharpening the mind, energising daily life, and building confidence that carries beyond the gym. A respected voice in the industry, he regularly shares expert insight on training, performance, and sports science — his ethos rooted in humility, discipline, and evidence-based practice.

Tonico (noun, masculine) — “Toned, ready, energised, focused.”
For Giacomo, it's more than a physical state; it's a mindset, a method, and a standard.
