The Pilates industry is evolving rapidly — and studio owners who want to stay relevant need more than great classes to thrive. In this episode of The Pilates Business Podcast, host Seran Glanfield sits down with CJ Zarb, founder of Pilates Journal and creator of the Pilates Journal Expo, to discuss the future of the Pilates industry and what boutique fitness studio owners need to understand to build sustainable growth over the next five years.
Together, they unpack the biggest shifts happening across the global Pilates business landscape — from changing consumer expectations and instructor shortages to leadership, community, collaboration, and innovation inside the boutique fitness industry. CJ shares her unique perspective from working closely with Pilates professionals around the world and explains why strong leadership, authentic connection, and adaptability are becoming essential for pilates studio owners who want to grow profitable, resilient businesses.
If you’re a Pilates, yoga, or barre studio owner feeling overwhelmed by constant industry changes, this conversation will leave you inspired, informed, and equipped with practical insights to help your studio stand out in a competitive market.
