CLUB Pilates has announced Wapping as the location for its third UK studio opening later this summer, following the successful launch of the brand’s first two UK studios in London’s Bankside and Fulham Broadway.
The announcement follows news of Club Pilates peaking an impressive 1,000 studios globally as the brand pushes on with a significant franchise rollout in the UK – the long-term ambition is to launch 50-75 UK Club Pilates studios in the next three to five years.
As per the brand’s first two UK studios, the Wapping studio will be owned and operated by fitness and wellness firm Deblankson Fitness Group, led by Richard Uku, who owns the master franchise license for Club Pilates in the UK.
He said: “We’re delighted to be stepping up our UK rollout with Wapping closely following Bankside and Fulham Broadway.
“Despite Pilates and particularly Reformer Pilates booming in London and across the UK, there are not many Pilates studios in the area, and we’re looking forward to serving the local community with a unique and engaging workout experience that’s a fantastic alternative to traditional gym workouts.”
The Wapping location was also chosen due to the area’s wider business network where partnerships may be tapped with synergetic businesses to grow the studio’s customer base from the off, and similar to the brand’s first UK studios, the studio will be well connected by transport links, making it convenient for customers from nearby areas to reach and enjoy its benefits.
