Club Pilates Virginia Beach Goes From Group Texts to Growth

As Club Pilates Virginia Beach grew from one to three studios, Regional Manager Korey found himself buried in group texts, manual outreach, and endless schedule memorization. Subbing had become a bottleneck for growth and a risk to member experience. With NetGym, Korey centralized coverage, improved reliability, and gained visibility into instructor performance — all while preparing to confidently open a fourth location.

Studio Overview

More About Club Pilates Virginia Beach

Club Pilates Virginia Beach is a thriving franchise group operating three locations, with a fourth opening soon. Known for accessible, athlete-friendly Pilates programming, the studios deliver premium experiences rooted in the Club Pilates model. Regional Manager Korey, a former collegiate basketball player turned Pilates expert, blends professional operations with authentic coaching energy.

The Challenge Before NetGym

Scaling from one to three studios created challenges that simple fixes couldn’t cover.

Disconnected Systems:

Instructor subbing relied on texts and didn’t sync with ClubReady or When I Work, creating gaps and errors.

Manager Overload:

Korey kept track of three studio schedules in his head, a system that simply couldn’t scale with a fourth location opening.

Inconsistent Coverage:

Missed updates risked uneven class quality and undermined the Club Pilates promise of consistency.

No Coaching Data:

Without visibility into subbing patterns, Korey couldn’t spot reliability issues or proactively support his instructors.

Simplicity is key. NetGym helped us take something complex and streamline it. Our team loves how easy it is to pick up more classes, and I love the insights it gives me on instructor patterns.
