Testimonials:


Exceptional Service From Start to Finish

“I first connected with Doug from API Fitness at a fitness equipment expo and didn’t expect much at the time. We were dealing with challenges with our current broker and urgently needed coverage for multiple expanding locations. Within just a few days, Doug presented three separate policies, all approved and active. Not only did the new policies provide broader coverage, but they also came in at a lower cost. Doug delivered some of the best customer service I’ve experienced — in insurance or anywhere else. Highly recommend!”

— David Figg, Owner and Founder, House of Gains Gym, Oxnard, California


Reduced Our Insurance Expenses by Over Half

“As operating costs continue to climb in the fitness industry, lowering expenses became a priority for us. At the 2025 Health & Fitness Association convention in Las Vegas, we met Douglas Jester from API Fitness and discussed our need for more affordable General Liability and Property Insurance that still satisfied our landlord’s requirements. After returning home, Doug quickly sourced a new policy that maintained our coverage standards while reducing our premium by more than 50%. We truly appreciate the professionalism and care Doug provided throughout the process. If you’re in the fitness business and reviewing your insurance, we highly recommend giving him a call.”

— Greg and Rose Yoshida, Owners, GYFitness Training and Wellness Center, Waipahu, Hawaii
