At BODYBAR Pilates, we believe we're in the people business first.

Every day, we have the opportunity to help our members feel stronger, more confident, and more empowered - and that starts with exceptional leadership.

We're looking for a driven, inspiring Studio Manager who is passionate about developing people, growing a business, and creating an experience that members and employees genuinely love.

This is more than a management position - it's an opportunity to lead a thriving business, develop future leaders, and make a lasting impact on your team, your members, and your community.

If you're energized by coaching others, building meaningful relationships, achieving ambitious goals, and creating a culture where people thrive, we'd love to meet you.

Why You'll Love Working Here

  • Complimentary BODYBAR Pilates classes

  • Competitive salary plus performance-based bonuses

  • Clear opportunities for career advancement within one of the fastest-growing boutique fitness brands in the country

  • Employee discounts on BODYBAR apparel

  • Flexible scheduling that supports work-life balance

  • A positive, supportive culture that values growth, collaboration, and celebrating wins together

About BODYBAR Pilates

BODYBAR Pilates is a rapidly growing boutique fitness franchise dedicated to helping people move better, feel stronger, and live healthier lives through our signature BODYBAR Method.

Our classes combine strength, precision, and intentional movement in a welcoming environment where every member feels seen, supported, and challenged.

Everything we do is rooted in our core value of CHEER - bringing positivity, encouragement, and purpose to every interaction. Whether we're celebrating someone's first class or their 500th, we believe people should leave our studios feeling stronger than when they arrived.

Our Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who leads with both heart and high standards.

You're the type of leader who naturally earns trust, develops great people, and believes that the best teams are built through coaching, accountability, and genuine care.

You think like a business owner. You enjoy analyzing performance, setting ambitious goals, solving problems, and finding opportunities for growth. You're motivated by results - but you know those results come from investing in your people first.

You aren't afraid to have difficult conversations, celebrate big wins, or jump in wherever your team needs you. You understand that leadership isn't about having all the answers - it's about creating an environment where people can do their very best work.

Most importantly, you believe success is measured by more than numbers. It's measured by the team you've built, the members you've impacted, and the culture you've created.

If you're looking for a career where you can grow as a leader while helping others grow too, you'll feel right at home at BODYBAR.

  • Build strategic partnerships with local businesses and organizations.

  • Represent BODYBAR at networking events and within the community.

  • Oversee inventory, retail merchandising, studio systems, and administrative operations.

  • Ensure policies and procedures are consistently followed while continuously looking for ways to improve efficiency.

  • Create systems that allow both your team and your studio to operate at a high level.

What You'll Bring

  • 2+ years of leadership or management experience.

  • 5+ years of success in retail, hospitality, fitness, or service-based sales.

  • A proven history of meeting or exceeding sales and business performance goals.

  • Experience developing high-performing teams and future leaders.

  • Strong business acumen and confidence making decisions.

  • Outstanding communication and relationship-building skills.

  • Exceptional organization and time management.

  • Comfort using technology and learning new systems.

  • Professionalism, integrity, reliability, and a passion for helping others succeed.

Our Core Values

Everything we do starts with one simple belief:

People come first.

Our members are the heart of our business, and our team is what makes the magic happen. We believe that when we invest in our people, build meaningful relationships, and lead with authenticity, business growth naturally follows.

We're looking for leaders who are:

  • Growth-minded - You're always learning, improving, and helping others grow.

  • Accountable - You lead by example and hold yourself and your team to a high standard.

  • Positive - You bring energy, encouragement, and optimism to every interaction.
