The New Gold Standard in Pilates is Here.
At Pilates Addiction, we’re redefining what’s possible through movement. Our studios deliver results-driven, biomechanically grounded workouts powered by patented reformers found nowhere else and guided by expert Educators who inspire transformation in every session.
We believe movement changes everything. When done with precision, intention, and community, it becomes a way of life. Now we’re looking for a highly driven, dynamic Studio Manager to lead our first pre-sale with passion, establish and grow our member base, and cultivate a studio environment that feels as empowering as it is elite.
The Role
The Yorba Linda Lead Educator embodies the highest standards of Pilates Addiction teaching. They demonstrate mastery of the Pilates Addiction Experience, act as mentors to fellow educators, and serve as leaders within their studio. In addition to teaching exceptional classes, Lead Educators provide guidance, audits, and support to ensure consistent delivery of the Pilates Addiction brand. Currently, while in pre-sale we are looking for someone who enjoys spreading the word in the community through grassroots and events, while helping to recruit and build our Educator Launch team for a late fall launch. This role is ideal for someone who is a hustler, thrives on connection, is passionate, embraces accountability, and knows how to sell a dream (until we open)!
