Is Club Pilates Expensive? How Much a Membership Costs

If it seems like everyone is doing Pilates right now, your instincts are correct. Pilates is a low-impact (but powerful) workout that builds strength and improves mobility without putting too much additional stress on your joints. While it’s definitely possible to get a solid Pilates workout at home, professional instruction can offer you additional guidance, correction, and motivation. If you’re looking for a place to learn the ropes, Club Pilates is a great place to start. But how much does it cost?

Pilates has a reputation for being on the pricier side. So while dedicated students rave about the benefits, there are a few things you should know before committing to a membership. For starters, Club Pilates is one of the largest Pilates franchises in the country with over 1,650 licensed locations and more beginner-friendly programming than some of the other reformer studios out there. (Check out our Club Pilates review for more information on what the classes are really like.) Moreover, Club Pilates costs are dependent on location, which is one reason why their pricing is so ambiguous.

To get a better sense of what you can expect, we asked a Club Pilates rep to share a general break down of the membership pricing. Although the exact numbers may vary depending on your location, this will give you an overview of Club Pilates costs, including the price of a Club Pilates four-pack, and Club Pilates Unlimited.

How Much Does Club Pilates Cost?

Club Pilates is a franchise (meaning each location is individually owned), so prices vary based on location. To get the most accurate estimate of Club Pilates prices, your best bet is to head to the Find a Studio Near You page on the brand’s website. From there, you can search for the closest location and find its contact info. Since most locations don’t list Club Pilates prices directly on the website, you’ll need to call or email the studio to find out.

That said, a Club Pilates brand representative gave PS a general idea of how much Club Pilates costs, including the Unlimited membership and class packs. Here’s what we found, with additional insight from real members on Reddit:

Memberships will give you the lowest per-class price, but there’s usually a three-month minimum commitment (and a fee of about $100 if you cancel early). Members should also note the cancellation policy, which charges unlimited members a $10 fee for canceling less than 12 hours before class, and $15 for a no-show (according to Reddit).

Additional Pricing Details

If you’re loving your Club Pilates practice, you can also commit to an annual membership, which allows you to pay once and skip the monthly payments (although it does require a year-long commitment). Some Club Pilates locations also offer private training sessions, which is a great idea if you’re looking for modifications relating to a previous injury or want to learn how to use the reformer with more individualized support.

If you’re wondering how much Club Pilates membership prices vary, one Redditor (who claimed to manage a Club Pilates) told the r/Pilates subreddit that their local studio charges $109 for four classes per month, $199 for eight classes per month, $229 for unlimited, and $279 for the Passport membership. Meanwhile, another Redditor shared that their Los Angeles studio charges $120 for four classes per month, $230 for eight classes per month, and $270 for unlimited.

Can You Try a Club Pilates Class For Free?

Yes — no matter which location you visit, you can get a 30-minute introductory class for free. That said, introduction classes can be quite popular, and spots may fill up quickly. Be sure to contact your local Club Pilates studio to schedule in advance.

Can You Take Club Pilates Classes Online?

Club Pilates is part of Xponential Fitness, a global franchise group of boutique fitness brands including Rumble Boxing, CycleBar, Pure Barre, StretchLab, YogaSix, and Body Fit Training. You can stream classes from Club Pilates (and all the other Xponential brands) online through the Xponential+ App ($30 per month or $120 per year, after a seven-day free trial). The annual membership comes out to $10 per month. You can sign up online or talk to your local studio to get set up.

Any Other Club Pilates Costs?

You’ll need to wear a pair of sticky or grippy socks for class, as they help you maintain a good grip on the reformer. If you don’t have grippy socks, you can buy some from your Club Pilates studio. A pair will typically cost $15-$20, but you can also find cheaper multipacks on Amazon. You can shop more Pilates essentials here.

There are also Club Pilates Gift Cards ($10-$1,000) available for gifting season.
