A Club Pilates franchise costs $413,289 to $1,029,811 to open one 12-reformer studio, per Item 7 of the amended 2026 disclosure document, and $197,901 to $241,189 of that goes to the franchisor.
Key takeaways
- The Club Pilates Franchise Disclosure Document, issued April 17, 2026 and amended August 7, 2026 puts one studio at $413,289 to $1,029,811 in Item 7, for a space of about 1,500 to 1,800 square feet.
- Leasehold improvements ($123,056 to $519,381) and the franchisor-sold Fitness Equipment & Initial FF&E Package ($128,986 to $170,034) are the two largest Item 7 lines.
- Item 11 gives about 13 months from signing to Soft Opening; with no accepted lease by month 6 or no opening by month 13, Club Pilates may terminate without refunding the $65,000 fee.
- After opening, Item 6 charges an 8% royalty, a 2% brand fund contribution and a $550 monthly Technology Fee, and Item 12 sets a Minimum Monthly Gross Sales Quota from the first anniversary.
- Item 3 lists six regulatory matters involving Xponential entities, including a Federal Trade Commission stipulated order with $17 million in franchisee redress and a June 2026 New York order that names the Club Pilates franchisor.

What does one 12-reformer Club Pilates studio cost, line by line?
Item 7 of the Club Pilates FDD estimates $413,289 to $1,029,811 for one studio, covering development, a Pre-Sales Phase of about five months and the first three months after Soft Opening. The $616,522 gap between low and high is mostly leasehold improvements, which alone swing by $396,325. The typical studio is about 1,500 to 1,800 square feet and rectangular, and every estimate excludes sales tax (Item 7, Note 1).
The federal rule behind this table, 16 CFR 436.5(g), requires an “Additional funds” line for an initial period that is “at least three months or a reasonable period for the industry.” Club Pilates uses three months and says its $7,000 to $44,000 estimate is net of revenue the studio earns in that window, so presale membership sales are already counted against it.

What does the build-out work out to per square foot?
Item 7 does not price construction per square foot, but dividing its leasehold range by the 1,500 to 1,800 square foot footprint in Note 1 gives a usable yardstick for contractor bids. The arithmetic below is ours, and a landlord tenant improvement allowance, which Note 5 excludes, would lower every figure.
| Leasehold estimate | At 1,500 sq ft | At 1,800 sq ft | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low, $123,056 | $82.04 per sq ft | $68.36 per sq ft | Our division of Item 7, Note 5 by Note 1 |
| High, $519,381 | $346.25 per sq ft | $288.55 per sq ft | Our division of Item 7, Note 5 by Note 1 |
At the low end, leasehold work is 29.8% of the $413,289 total; at the high end it is 50.4% of $1,029,811. A second-generation fitness or retail shell with HVAC and restrooms in place points toward the low column, while a cold shell needing new plumbing, sound treatment and electrical service points toward the high one.
Leasehold improvements ($123,056 to $519,381) carry most of the spread; the equipment package ($128,986 to $170,034) is the largest fixed purchase. Source: Club Pilates FDD amended August 7, 2026, Item 7; accessed November 3, 2026.
Older totals still in circulation
Because Club Pilates refiled in April 2026 and amended the document on August 7, 2026, totals on third-party pages lag the filing by months or years. Each row below compares a figure printed on a live page in November 2026 with the current Item 7.
| What a page says | What the amended 2026 FDD says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| A franchise directory page, citing the 2024 FDD and undated: $196,525 to $458,575 total | $413,289 to $1,029,811 | Item 7, Table A |
| A franchise-trade guide updated August 2026: low end of $403,289 | Low end of $413,289 | Item 7, Table A |
What is inside the $128,986 to $170,034 reformer package, and who sells it?
The Fitness Equipment & Initial FF&E Package is the largest line every Club Pilates studio buys from the franchisor. Item 5 says it covers 12 Pilates Reformer stations with mats, springboards, EXO Chairs and TRX units, plus 1 private training room with a Cadillac/Reformer combo and a Ladder Barrel, millwork, shipping and installation. It is bought “from us (or if designated, our affiliate),” is due before opening and is not refundable.
- Fixture package: a millwork bundle (front desk, retail display, cubbies) and accessories such as the cash wrap sign (Item 5).
- Studio floor: 12 Pilates Reformer stations with mats, springboards, EXO Chairs, TRX units, balls and jumpboards (Item 7, Note 8).
- Private room: 1 Cadillac/Reformer combo and 1 Ladder Barrel (Item 7, Note 8).
- Logistics: installation and shipping, which Item 5 says “may vary depending on the geographic location of your Studio.”
Item 19 of the same document defines an “Expansion Site” as a studio with more than 12 reformers, so 12 is the standard floor plan the package prices. A larger room means a larger package than the one Item 7 quotes, and the FDD does not price that variation.
Item 8 shows how much supply revenue runs through the Xponential side. In fiscal 2025 the franchisor reported no revenue from sales of goods and services to franchisees, but its Predecessor, Club Pilates Franchise, LLC, received $34,002,506 from such sales, 82.6% of its $41,161,731 in total revenue. The franchisor also received $6,853,859 in vendor allowances and rebates tied to franchisee purchases, 5.5% of its $125,206,634 in revenue. Required purchases make up an estimated 44% to 73% of what you buy to open and 73% to 88% of what you buy to operate, excluding rent. The same pattern across other systems is tracked in our study of supplier rebates and required purchases in 259 FDDs.
How does the same-size Pure Barre studio from the same parent compare?
Pure Barre is sold by PB Franchising SPV, LLC (its amended 2026 FDD), another Xponential subsidiary, under a disclosure document issued and amended on the same dates, for the same 1,500 to 1,800 square foot footprint. Setting the two filings side by side isolates what the reformer floor itself does to the budget; neither row is a recommendation.
| Term | Club Pilates | Pure Barre | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total initial investment | $413,289 to $1,029,811 | $455,299 to $736,465 | Item 7 of each FDD |
| Paid to franchisor or affiliates | $197,901 to $241,189 | $117,015 to $129,671 | Cover page of each FDD |
| Fitness Equipment & Initial FF&E Package | $128,986 to $170,034 | $44,264 to $51,520 | Item 5 of each FDD |
| Leasehold improvements | $123,056 to $519,381 | $215,000 to $336,000 | Item 7 of each FDD |
| Initial Franchise Fee | $65,000 | $60,000 | Item 5 of each FDD |
| Royalty and brand fund | 8% and 2% | 7% and 2% | Item 6 of each FDD |
| Technology Fee | $550 a month | $304 a month | Item 6 of each FDD |
| Franchised studios, December 31, 2025 | 1,179 | 617 | Item 20, Table 1 |
The Pure Barre package is barres, mats, weights and small equipment, so its equipment line is $84,722 to $118,514 lower than the Club Pilates reformer package (our subtraction). That gap explains most of the $80,886 to $111,518 difference in what each franchisor collects before opening.
How much of the budget goes to Club Pilates itself before the doors open?
The cover page of the Club Pilates FDD says $197,901 to $241,189 of the Item 7 total “must be paid to franchisor or its affiliates.” That range rebuilds exactly from five Item 5 payments: the $65,000 fee, the equipment package, $2,965 to $3,805 of pre-opening décor and signage, $200 to $1,600 of instructor bridge training and five months of a $150 presale Technology Fee.
| Payment to the franchisor | Low | High | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Initial Franchise Fee | $65,000 | $65,000 | Item 5 |
| Fitness Equipment & Initial FF&E Package | $128,986 | $170,034 | Item 5 |
| Pre-opening items (display items, coverings, flags, signage, décor) | $2,965 | $3,805 | Item 5 |
| Initial Instructor Training Fee, $200 each for 1 to 8 instructors | $200 | $1,600 | Item 5 |
| Reduced Technology Fee, 5 months at $150 | $750 | $750 | Item 5 |
| Total, matches the cover page | $197,901 | $241,189 | Cover page |
The $28,000 broker sourcing fee is not in the cover-page range, so an existing owner whose new unit came through a broker introduction pays up to $269,189 to the franchisor (our sum). The $4,024 technology line in Item 7 is also its own small calculation: 5 presale months at $150, 3 open months at $550, and 8 months of the $203 Software Fee charged by the approved software vendor.
| Technology and software, 8 months | Months | Rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reduced Technology Fee during presales | 5 | $150 | $750 |
| Technology Fee after Soft Opening | 3 | $550 | $1,650 |
| Software Fee, presales and first 3 months | 8 | $203 | $1,624 |
| Item 7 line, Note 13 | $4,024 |
How do presales work, and which deadlines can cost you the $65,000 fee?
Club Pilates opens studios twice: presales start once a franchisor-accepted lease and a pre-opening sales plan are in place, and Soft Opening follows about five months later. Item 11 puts the typical gap from signing to presales at about eight months and from signing to Soft Opening at about 13 months, and Soft Opening is only authorized after “certain minimum membership levels” are met.
| Milestone | Timing | Consequence if missed | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sign Franchise Agreement, pay $65,000 fee | Month 0 | Fee is non-refundable from payment | Item 5 |
| Authorized Location approved | Within 90 days | Franchisor may terminate | Item 11 |
| Franchisor-accepted lease signed | Within 6 months | May terminate without refund of the fee | Item 11 |
| Pre-Sales Phase begins; $150 Technology Fee starts | About month 8 (typical) | Presale activity is a listed curable default in Item 17 | Items 5, 11, 17 |
| Initial Training Program, 2 to 3 business days | Usually within 30 days before opening | Must finish before Soft Opening | Item 11 |
| Soft Opening | About month 13, and no later than month 13 | May terminate without refund of the fee | Item 11 |
The timeline matters because it is the subject of two Item 3 matters. The FTC’s March 18, 2026 announcement alleged that Xponential told buyers studios typically opened within six months of signing, while franchisees “have typically taken more than a year.” The amended FDD now states about 13 months. Our Item 11 study of opening timelines across 259 FDDs shows how other systems set the same deadline.
Presale money is also regulated. Item 1 warns that some states require bonds for long memberships or escrow of “pre-sale” membership payments collected before a fitness facility opens, so a buyer in one of those states could see presale cash held back rather than available for the $7,000 to $44,000 operating cushion. Ask the state’s health club or consumer protection office before setting the presale budget.
Royalty, fund, local ads, tech and software: the monthly fee stack
Once a Club Pilates studio collects revenue, Item 6 takes an 8% royalty weekly by electronic transfer and a 2% Brand Development Fund contribution, and requires local advertising of the greater of $1,500 or 2% of the prior month’s Gross Sales. A $550 Technology Fee and a $203 Software Fee apply each month regardless of sales, and the Technology Fee may rise 10% a year.
| Fee | Amount | When | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Royalty | 8% of Gross Sales (some existing owners pay 6% or 7%) | Weekly, by EFT | Item 6, Note 1 |
| Brand Development Fund | Currently 2% of Gross Sales | Weekly | Item 6 |
| Local Advertising Requirement | Greater of $1,500 or 2% of prior month’s Gross Sales | Monthly | Item 6 |
| Marketing Expenditure Cap | Fund, co-op and local ads together capped at 7% a month | Monthly | Item 6, Note 3 |
| Technology Fee | $550 a month; may rise 10% a year | Monthly | Item 6 |
| Software Fee (approved vendor) | $203 a month | Monthly | Item 11 |
| Teacher Training Program | $4,995 per trainee: $2,100 to the franchisor, $2,895 to the studio | Before training | Item 6 |
| Transfer fee | $10,000 | On transfer request | Item 6 |
| Successor franchise fee | $10,000, plus a remodel | Before the 10-year term ends | Items 6 and 17 |
| Relocation fee | $5,000 | On proposal | Item 6 |
Before Gross Sales reach $75,000 in a month, the $1,500 floor is larger than 2% (our arithmetic: $1,500 divided by 2%). Item 6 also sets Lost Revenue Damages on early termination: the royalty and fund percentages times average monthly Gross Sales over the prior 24 months, for the lesser of 36 months or the months left in the term, discounted to present value and reduced by the franchisor’s cost savings.
What do the 15,000-person territory and the sales quota mean for a new studio?
Item 12 of the Club Pilates FDD opens with the sentence “You will not receive an exclusive territory,” then grants a Designated Territory that is “generally” an area with at least 15,000 people. Inside it, the franchisor will not open or license another Club Pilates studio while you comply, but it keeps the right to place studios at Non-Traditional Sites such as gyms, airports and universities.
| Territory or performance term | What Item 12 says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Designated Territory | Generally a population of at least 15,000; drawn by zip codes, streets, a radius or a map | Item 12 |
| Protection | No other Club Pilates studio inside it while you comply, subject to reserved rights | Item 12 |
| Reserved rights | Non-Traditional Sites, internet sales and other brands, inside or outside the territory | Item 12 |
| Marketing outside the territory | Needs written consent; contiguous, unsold areas only | Item 12 |
| Quota, first anniversary of Soft Opening | Trailing 12-month average monthly Gross Sales of $25,000 | Item 12 |
| Quota, second anniversary and after | Trailing 12-month average monthly Gross Sales of $40,000 | Item 12 |
| If missed | Mandatory corrective training; termination possible after any trailing 36-month shortfall | Item 12 |
The $25,000 and $40,000 figures are contractual floors, not forecasts or results; the FDD’s Special Risks page flags “Sales Performance Required” for the same reason. Item 19 holds the franchisor’s 2025 performance data for 1,005 Qualified Studios, which our guide to reading Item 19 disclosures explains how to read. Our territory rights research across FDDs covers how other franchisors size protected areas.
Who stands behind the franchisor, and what does Item 3 disclose about Xponential?
The seller is Club Pilates Franchise SPV, LLC, a Delaware company formed March 6, 2023. Item 1 traces its ownership through XPOF Assetco, LLC, which guarantees its obligations, to Xponential Fitness LLC and then to Xponential Fitness, Inc., listed on the New York Stock Exchange as XPOF. The brand itself was first franchised in September 2012 and moved under the Predecessor in March 2015.
Xponential’s other brands, per Item 1, are BFT (44 franchised studios at December 31, 2025), Pure Barre (617), Stretch Lab (486) and Yoga Six (191). Item 21 attaches Assetco’s audited statements rather than the franchisor’s own, and Xponential’s public filings sit on SEC EDGAR under CIK 1802156. Item 4 reports no bankruptcy information to disclose.
Item 3 lists six regulatory matters, summarized here as disclosed. Where Item 3 addresses admission, the Xponential parties neither admitted nor denied the findings or settled without admission. The table is neutral by design: it reports parties, dates and amounts as the FDD states them.
| Matter | Date | Parties named, per Item 3 | Terms as disclosed |
|---|---|---|---|
| California DFPI Consent Order | November 4, 2024 | Xponential brand franchisors including Club Pilates Franchise SPV, plus parents | $450,000 administrative penalty; desist and refrain; compliance training |
| Washington DFI Consent Order | August 12, 2025 | Xponential Fitness LLC | $5,400 in investigation costs; desist and refrain |
| FTC v. Xponential Fitness Inc., 8:26-cv-00610 | Filed March 18, 2026; approved April 2, 2026 | Xponential Fitness, Inc.; matter concerns AKT, CycleBar, Pure Barre and Yoga Six | $17 million in franchisee redress; Franchise Rule compliance and recordkeeping |
| Virginia SCC, SEC-2025-00039 | March 13, 2026 | Former CycleBar and Row House franchisors | $20,000 civil penalty and $1,200 in costs |
| Maryland Securities Commissioner, 2024-0140 | April 14, 2026 | XFI and Xponential brand franchisors | $75,000 penalty; termination and fee refund offers to unopened Maryland franchisees |
| New York Attorney General, AOD #26-015 | June 9, 2026 | Xponential entities including Club Pilates Franchise SPV, LLC | $2,700,000 restitution, $300,000 civil penalty, $971,250 in returned franchise fees |
Beyond those orders, Item 3 lists 12 pending private actions involving the parent, Predecessor or affiliates, none of which names Club Pilates Franchise SPV, LLC as a party, and five pending securities lawsuits against Xponential Fitness, Inc. Enforcement of this kind across systems is tallied in our review of 562 state franchise enforcement orders.
How fast is the studio count growing, and how often do studios change hands?
Item 20 of the Club Pilates FDD shows franchised studios rising from 868 at the end of 2023 to 1,029 at the end of 2024 and 1,179 at the end of 2025, with no company-owned studios after 2024. Studios opened were 116, 166 and 153 in those three years, while 3 ceased operations in 2025 and none were terminated or non-renewed that year.
| Year | Franchised at year end | Opened | Terminated | Ceased, other reasons | Transfers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 868 | 116 | 0 | 1 | 78 |
| 2024 | 1,029 | 166 | 4 | 1 | 59 |
| 2025 | 1,179 | 153 | 0 | 3 | 133 |
Franchised studios grew from 868 to 1,179 between the end of 2023 and the end of 2025, and transfers rose to 133 in 2025. Source: Club Pilates FDD amended August 7, 2026, Item 20; accessed November 3, 2026.
Transfers are the resale market: 133 studios changed franchisee owners in 2025, more than double the 59 in 2024. Table 5 adds 123 signed agreements for studios not yet open and a projection of 144 new franchised studios in 2026, which the Special Risks page reads as a reason openings could be delayed. Item 20 also says some franchisees signed confidentiality agreements in the last three years, so not every name on the Exhibit I and J lists may be able to talk to you.

Which reformer studio plan fits your cash and timeline?
The right Club Pilates entry route depends on four FDD terms: whether you qualify for the $48,750 VetFran fee, whether a broker introduced you, how many studios you commit to and how quickly a landlord will sign. The table pairs each situation with the line that decides it. This page is general information about the Club Pilates filing, not legal, tax or investment advice.
| If your situation is | The FDD term that decides it | What to check before signing |
|---|---|---|
| U.S. military veteran meeting VetFran rules | Fee falls from $65,000 to $48,750 (Item 5) | The $16,250 difference only; Item 7 lines are unchanged. Our veteran franchise discount research compares other systems. |
| Already own a Club Pilates studio | $55,000 fee for the next unit; $28,000 sourcing fee if a broker introduced it (Item 5) | Whether a broker introduction is on record before you sign |
| Want 3 studios in one area | $20,000 Development Fee, credited $10,000 to each later fee; first studio still $413,289 to $1,029,811 (Item 7, Table B) | The Development Schedule and the cross-default risk on the Special Risks page |
| Buying an open studio through a broker | $30,000 sourcing fee instead of the Initial Franchise Fee (Item 5); 133 transfers in 2025 (Item 20) | Who pays the $10,000 transfer fee and whether the remaining term covers your payback |
| Landlord offers a tenant improvement allowance | Leasehold $123,056 to $519,381 excludes any allowance (Item 7, Note 5) | Allowance amount in the letter of intent before the 6-month lease deadline |
| Trade area under about 15,000 people | Designated Territory is generally at least 15,000 people (Item 12) | How the map will be drawn, and the $25,000 then $40,000 quota |
| Cash near the Item 7 low end | Additional funds are $7,000 to $44,000, net of presale revenue (Item 7, Note 14) | Whether your state escrows presale money (Item 1) and a lender’s reserve rule; Item 10 offers no financing |
The FDD cover page requires delivery at least 14 calendar days before you sign or pay, which is the window to put these questions to the franchisor in writing. Our guide to the 23 items of a franchise disclosure document explains where each answer should appear.
How we compiled this
We read the cost items of the 344-page Club Pilates FDD filed in Minnesota (CARDS document 37134-202608-05), and re-added every Item 7 line and the cover-page franchisor share. We compared the Pure Barre FDD and checked eCFR, the FTC’s March 18, 2026 release and EDGAR in November 2026. We excluded Item 19 revenue figures and owner income by site policy, did not name franchisees and did not survey owners.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a Club Pilates franchise owner make?
The FDD does not promise any income. Item 19 of the amended 2026 document reports 2025 Gross Revenue for 1,005 Qualified Studios and 19 Expanded Studios, and our site does not republish those figures. What reaches the owner depends on the Item 6 royalty of 8%, the 2% fund contribution, rent from the Item 7 lease line and payroll for 7 or more instructors, so set Item 19 against those costs.
Is there a Club Pilates veteran discount?
Yes. Item 5 says Club Pilates participates in the International Franchise Association’s VetFran program, and a qualifying U.S. veteran pays an Initial Franchise Fee of $48,750 instead of $65,000, a $16,250 reduction. The discount applies to the fee only; the $128,986 to $170,034 equipment package and every other Item 7 line stay the same.
Do you need to be a Pilates instructor to own a Club Pilates studio?
No, but Item 1 requires the studio to engage at least one Authorized Instructor at all times who meets the Instructor Eligibility Criteria, including at least 450 hours of Pilates instruction, and who completes the Instructor Bridge Training Program at $200 per instructor. Item 7 budgets wages for 7 instructors, a general manager and a front desk associate.
Can you buy an existing Club Pilates studio?
Yes. Item 20 records 133 transfers of franchised studios to new owners in 2025, 59 in 2024 and 78 in 2023. Item 5 says a buyer of an existing studio pays a $30,000 sourcing fee in place of the Initial Franchise Fee when a franchise broker is owed a commission, and Item 6 sets a $10,000 transfer fee.
Does Club Pilates finance the franchise?
No. Item 10 states that the franchisor does not offer direct or indirect financing and does not guarantee your note, lease or obligation. Item 7 notes that leasing and financing are available for many expenses from other sources, and that the franchisor may help you find working capital, but the $65,000 fee itself is not financed.
How long is a Club Pilates franchise agreement?
