Where it started

A century of controlled movement.

Pilates began with Joseph Pilates — a German-born nurse and anatomist who, while rehabilitating injured soldiers during WWI, rigged springs to hospital beds. That idea became the reformer, and his method — controlled movement, balance, body awareness — is the practice taught in every studio today.

He called it Contrology — controlled movement, balance, and body awareness.
Joseph Pilates · New York City · 1926
The method
1883Joseph Pilates is born in Germany — a sickly child who trains his way past asthma and rickets.
1912Moves to England, working as a boxer, circus performer and self-defense trainer at Scotland Yard.
1910sInterned during WWI, he rigs bed springs into resistance equipment — and develops his method, Contrology.
1926Joseph & Clara open their NYC studio; dancers and performers take to it.
1934He publishes Your Health, followed by Return to Life Through Contrology in 1945.
1967Joseph Pilates dies; his students carry the method forward.
Club Pilates & Spartan
2007Club Pilates is founded in San Diego — reformer Pilates as an accessible group class.
2012–13Club Pilates begins franchising.
2015Anthony Geisler acquires Club Pilates; it later joins the Xponential Fitness platform.
2020Spartan begins building its Club Pilates platform.
2023Snapdragon Capital Partners invests $30M+.
TodayThe largest Club Pilates portfolio in the world — over 170 studios across 16 states.
What is Club Pilates?

That’s the method. Here’s the brand you’ll represent every day — who Club Pilates is for, and what makes a class here different.

How we got here

From four studios to a national platform.

It started with David Schuck — our Founder and CEO — and six Club Pilates licenses in North Carolina, built on a track record of success with Liberty Tax.

From four built studios in FY20, the business has grown to over 170 today — through a steady mix of acquisitions and new builds, with open studios posting strong double-digit organic growth.

Talking to members

The benefits matter most in conversation. Here’s what members actually say — and how to answer.

They say
“I’m not flexible enough for Pilates.”
You say
That’s exactly what it builds. Increased flexibility is one of the first things members notice — you don’t need it to walk in the door.
They say
“My back has been bothering me and I’m nervous about starting.”
You say
Pilates is low-impact and joint-friendly. Gentle movement relieves and prevents back strain, and it improves spinal stabilization and posture. If they’re post-surgery or under a doctor’s care, get physician clearance first and loop in the instructor.
They say
“I already train hard — what would this add?”
You say
It builds strength and length together, sharpens balance and coordination that carries into their other training, and creates the body balance that reduces injury and burnout.
They say
“Is it going to bulk me up?”
You say
No — it builds lean strength without bulking, and balanced muscle training means nothing gets overused.
They say
“I’m exhausted and I never have time for myself.”
You say
The stress relief is built into the workout rather than bolted on. Mindful breath and movement promote calm, and the mind-body connection builds presence in every session.
What sets Club Pilates apart
  • Highly trained instructors — completing 450+ hours of comprehensive training
  • Widest array of classes available anywhere
  • Challenges students at every level

Classes & equipment

What we actually teach.

Formats, levels, and the equipment on every studio floor.

Instructors & classes

Our instructors

Our instructors are trained to serve all bodies — and to modify exercises for various injuries and fitness levels, so a class works for whoever is on the reformer.

Our classes

Offerings range from low-impact mobility and recovery to high-intensity strength training. Our studios offer 7 different class formats and 4 different levels, so the workouts are never boring. Instructors choreograph their own flows — so members never get the same class twice.

Class levels

Levels build on each other. A member can’t jump ahead — each step has a requirement before they can book it.

Five quick questions on what you just read.
The member promise

C.A.R.E.

Every person who walks into one of our studios should leave feeling cared for. That’s not the job of one team or one role — it’s a promise every single employee makes, from the front desk to the instructor to the GM. We capture that promise in one word: C.A.R.E. It isn’t extra credit or something you get to when the studio is quiet — it’s part of every role here, and everyone is held to the same standard.

By the end of this module you can
Explain the C.A.R.E service standard and describe how to deliver each part with members and guests.
CConnect
Make people feel welcome and seen. Greet members and guests warmly and by name, come out from behind the desk, and start a real human moment before anything transactional.
AAssist
Anticipate what someone needs and help before they have to ask. Guide a guest to their reformer, offer grip socks, walk a member through a question — be proactively helpful.
RRespond
Listen, and respond promptly and professionally — to questions, concerns, and complaints alike. People remember how they were treated when something went wrong far more than when everything went right.
EExperience
Create an experience worth coming back for. Leave every member feeling part of the community — like they belong here — so the studio becomes a place they want to return to.
The takeaway
Connect. Assist. Respond. Experience.

C.A.R.E is the standard behind every member interaction, in every role — it’s how we make people feel like they belong.
