Studio Pilates International has announced plans to open its first studio in Germany in 2026, located in Wiesbaden and operated by franchisees Slavica and Dominik Mühl. The opening will mark the company’s entry into mainland Europe and an extension of its international growth strategy.
The brand, which specializes in reformer Pilates, reported the opening of 22 new studios in 2024, with a 40% increase in its U.S. footprint during the same period. Its expansion into Germany reflects growing global demand for structured Pilates programs across boutique fitness markets.
“Expanding into Germany is a powerful next step in our global growth,” said Jade Winter, Co-Founder and CEO of Studio Pilates International. “Wiesbaden represents a key moment in broadening our footprint in Europe beyond existing regions, and we’re thrilled to work alongside Slavica and Dominik to share our approach.”
Franchisee Slavica Mühl added, “Bringing Studio Pilates to Wiesbaden means more than opening doors – it’s about creating a space where passion meets purpose, and every workout empowers a stronger, healthier community.”
The Wiesbaden location is expected to introduce the brand’s reformer Pilates model to a new European audience as boutique fitness operators continue to pursue growth in international markets.
