A brand with history. A franchise with a future.
This Is Yoga | This Is Pilates has evolved over more than 15 years of studio ownership, management, teaching and community building.
Today, that experience sits behind a franchise platform designed for the next generation of wellness business owners.
The brand currently operates studio communities in Sydney and Bathurst, alongside digital offerings, and is expanding through selected territories across Australia and New Zealand.
We are looking for owners who want more than simply a fitness business.
We want people who want to create something meaningful locally.
A studio where members know each other.
A team that cares.
A business that can become an important part of its community.
And an owner who is supported from day one.
The Opportunity
Imagine owning a business where your customers become your community.
Where you can choose from three distinct studio models rather than being forced into a one-size-fits-all concept.
Where you are backed by more than 15 years of studio operating experience.
And where, for your entire first year, you have monthly personal coaching directly with the founder — included at no extra cost.
That is the This Is Yoga | This Is Pilates opportunity.
Three studio models.
15+ years of studio experience.
12 months of founder coaching.
One powerful pathway to ownership.
This is Yoga. This is Pilates.
A business you can own.
A lifestyle you can live.
A community you can lead.
Reasons you should invest in this franchise
One franchise system. Three studio models. More than 15 years of real studio experience behind you.
This Is Yoga | This Is Pilates offers something genuinely distinctive in the Australian wellness franchise market: three different studio ownership models within one established brand platform.
Franchisees can choose the studio format that best suits their market, location, investment level and personal ambition:
1. Yoga Mat Studio
A community-led yoga studio focused on movement, mindfulness, mobility, strength and connection.
2. Pilates Reformer / Mat Studio
A contemporary Pilates model combining reformer and mat-based training, designed around strength, posture, stability and progressive movement.
3. Pilates & Yoga Studio
A broader wellness destination bringing both Yoga and Pilates together under one roof, creating greater programming diversity and a powerful all-in-one membership proposition.
Three studio models. One trusted wellness platform.
That flexibility is a major point of difference.
Rather than forcing every franchisee into one standard format, we work with prospective owners to identify the model that best fits the territory, local demographic, site, investment profile and commercial opportunity.
Built from more than 15 years of actually running studios

- Recruiting and leading teaching teams
- Managing memberships and retention
- Developing timetables and programming
- Marketing local studios
- Navigating leases, staffing and operating costs
- Responding to underperformance
- Building culture and community
