I train Boot Camp in Sydney NSW, we charge 10 visits for $150 or first class is FREE if you bring a paying person for $20 (includes nutrition tips) Or flat fee for corporate companies $400/hour (then they organise the 30-40 members) ensure goal setting with result testers ie BP, weight measurements, Max HR etc.

Check out other boot camps in your area and see what they are charging.
Depending on whether or not they have more overhead than you and what you do that they don't, you'll get a good idea of a ball park figure to use when pricing your camp.
Also, consider the target of your boot camps and what your market research suggests would be a good price. When you run the camp the next time, you may want to give a slight price break to those who have attended before and/or those who register and an "early bird" rate.
Whatever you do, make it easy to understand or you'll lose people because they'll be confused!

Check the local bootcamps around you. For me I found $99 to be a good starting point for 2x per week $125 for 3x per week, currently averaging 25 people per bootcamp.

You really need to check out any other local bootcamp offerings & see what they are charging & see if their classes are full. Your demographics will play the biggest role. I am in a small town of about 10,000 & we offered a bootcamp over a year ago that met 2 days per week in the morning at 9am (after the kids were to be at school) & we only charged $44/month.

I would suggest a drop in rate of $12 and a small discounted rate for people who pay for the entire program up front. In my experience people who pay up front have a much higher attendance rate and get the most results.

Definitely doing a bit of research on other similar programs in your area is a great idea. Somewhere in between 10-15 per class is about average for most places - 12 classes(3x/week)per month bought in a bundle - $150 & discount anyone wanting to purchase more than one month at a time along with offering a discount for those who start out w/one month and wish to continue - if you start at $150/month - a good discount would be anywhere from $125-$135 per month depending on how long they wish to continue. For my Fit Camp - those that sign up for an entire year get a rate of $100/month for their commitment.

You really need to do some market research to determine what price range you should charge. Find out the demographics of your target area, what direct and indirect competitors charge and what you need to clear to cover your overhead.

With so many options for pricing available, you should conduct a demographic survey. The local court house should be able to help you with this. Its invaluable and doesn't take much effort. Base your pricing loosely around it but, believe in what you tell yourself this class is worth and stay close to it... your probably right, they just don't know it yet.

I currently am running a camp and I charge $10 per class and give my clients the opportunity to earn a discount for paying up front. But I do think you should find out what works best for your locations. People are only going to attend if they can afford to.

It really depends on your area, $15 per class may work in some places but be astronomical in others. Regardless of the number per class you decide on, I've found it's easiest to extrapolate the per-class cost and make it a "monthly due." For example, if someone wants to come twice per week at $15 per class, charge somewhere around $139 per month. This also allows you to do EFT if you want, which is ideal.
