Join Australia’s fastest growing Pilates franchise and own your own STRONG Pilates studio. In 2022, the pilates industry experienced 250% growth in Australia & New Zealand* with its popularity now 2.8 times that of yoga in Australia alone~. The global Pilates & Yoga market has an anticipated compound annual growth rate of 10.0% from 2021 to 2028, with majority of the key players being Pilates studios.^
STRONG Pilates founders Michael Ramsey and Mark Armstrong sit among the elite in Australia’s fitness industry. They talk the talk as well as walk it, mostly because they have been in your shoes. This duo have owned a number of high performing franchise fitness studios, including some that were the highest performing for their market in Australia. They found a gap in the fitness industry for a long term, sustainable, safe, no impact model which led to our unique concept.
Launched in October 2019, STRONG Pilates is growing exponentially with 130+ territories sold & reserved across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Singapore, UK and the EU.

Ash, STRONG Pilates Burleigh
At the forefront of Innovation.
At STRONG, we never rest on our laurels. We are constantly conceptualising and testing new fitness technology that can add to and evolve the STRONG offering to enhance our client experience.
Our Rowformer is an exclusively-licensed machine that is half a reformer Pilates and half a rower, which makes for an intense full-body workout that combines cardio training with strength and resistance.
Launching in 2023, our Former range has evolved to now include the Bikeformer, swapping out the rower for a bike. Another first to market in our industry, exclusive to STRONG.
Meet the Rowformer
Put simply: Rowing Machine + Reformer Bed = A ROWformer.
Pre & Post Workout
STRONG’s Mobility Screens provide a guided stretch 10 minutes before or after a STRONG class. The screens generally sit in communal areas within the studio and display a yoga flow that directly relates to the type of STRONG session on the day.
