JETSET Pilates Targets Chicagoland for Franchise Expansion
JETSET Pilates, renowned for its modern Reformer Pilates offerings, is eyeing an ambitious expansion into the Chicago area. Known for providing premium full-body workouts, the franchise plans to establish two initial locations in
Naperville and
Winnetka, with aspirations to unveil an additional
10 to 12 studios throughout the region over the next few years.
The decision has been driven by the brand's recognition of Chicago as a vibrant city with an appetite for innovative fitness concepts. Notably, the location choices are strategic, focusing on high-profile neighborhoods like
Lincoln Park,
River North, and
Gold Coast, along with affluent suburbs such as
Evanston,
Oak Brook, and
Hinsdale. As per the 2024
Mindbody + ClassPass Wellness Index, Chicago ranks as the
8th healthiest city in America, portraying a promising market for JETSET’s upscale workout regime.
An Inspiring Experience Designed for Fitness Lovers
Bert Albertse, the CEO of JETSET Pilates, expresses immense enthusiasm about the Chicago market, stating, “Chicago is a city that thrives on innovation, style, and energy, and that's exactly what JETSET delivers. From our curated playlists to our studio design, every detail is built to inspire.” Hence, JETSET aims to carve its niche as a compelling fitness destination within the city, aligning along its ethos of innovation and luxury.
Record Growth and Future Plans
In 2025, JETSET Pilates has experienced remarkable growth, having already opened
16 new studios in the first half of the year. The franchise is not only expanding domestically but has also made its debut internationally with plans for a location in
Melbourne, Australia. Currently, the brand has over
160 locations sold and in development, signaling robust interest from franchise partners in prominent markets, including Chicago.
Tamara Galinsky, the Founder and Brand President of JETSET Pilates, commented on this strategic move into Chicagoland, saying, “Launching new locations in Naperville and Winnetka is just the beginning. We're actively seeking passionate franchise partners in Chicagoland who share our vision of delivering a premium Pilates experience that meets the city’s growing demand for innovative fitness solutions.” Her excitement reflects the brand’s commitment to franchise growth, aiming to establish its presence in high-demand fitness environments.
