General Manager

COMPANY OVERVIEW:

Club Pilates is a well-established nation-wide brand committed to providing affordable and accessible Pilates to the community. Starting from a handful of studios, the benefit of Pilates became clear and was well accepted by the community such that the services had to be extended to more people across the nation. Club Pilates offers group reformer classes in various formats and levels to accommodate anyone seeking to learn Pilates and improve their fitness. Class formats target a wide range of clients’ needs – from young to more senior, and beginner to advanced. In addition to providing classes for the general public,  Club Pilates was one of the first studios to create a 500-hour Teacher Training Program designed to thoroughly and safely teach group Pilates apparatus classes. Club Pilates has already sold 750 territories throughout the United States and Canada and has over 2200 instructors who provide over 17 million workouts a year to tens of thousands of members. At the time of this writing, Club Pilates has been recognized in Inc Magazine's Inc. 500 and Inc. 5000 List two years in a row as well as Entrepreneur Magazine's Franchise 500 two years in a row.  Visit www.clubpilates.com for more information.
