Would you say it's against the rules for a gym employee to date their customer?

What are the conduct rules between let's say a gym employee (Bally's, 24 Hour Fitness etc) and their client.Is it or is it not okay for a personal trainer to date his/or her client? Does anyone know the answer to this.Thanks
Answer:
Against the law????
Why would you even think that?
There are no laws to keep you from dating anyone (unless your in the military).

It may be against the company's rules or guidelines, and if so they would be well within their rights to fire you, but your not going to jail.
Why don't you ask your boss.
They are not in a boss/subordinate role so I don't see any problem at all. Even a boss/subordinate can date if they want to. I just don't think that is usually a good idea.
It seems fine legally. The question would deal with mainly with company policy.
What rules? Only the military has legally enforceable anti-fraternization rules. Companies, institutions, and even other branches of government (though government agencies must be careful not to violate a persons' rights to freedom of association) might set rules for their employees that can result in termination if violated, these are only enforceable as a breach of contract.
