Stretch Lab - Rumble - Club Pilates - Cycle Bar Rapid Growth In Australia
Monday Oct 09, 2023
Monday Oct 09, 2023
Brendan James and Matt Gordin are brother- in-laws and close friends who have secured the master franchising rights to Rumble Boxing in Australia under their brand, Boutique Fitness Studios. The duo also has exclusive rights to Club Pilates, CycleBar and StretchLab, all of which are extremely popular US brands that fall under the Xponential Fitness banner. A publicly listed company in the U.S., Xponential is the largest franchisor of boutique fitness brands globally with 10 brands spanning 2,700+ locations across the world.After graduating from university together, Matt chose to pursue a career in business, while Brendan ventured into the world of options trading. Brendan's trading expertise eventually led him to Chicago, while Matt's entrepreneurial spirit took him to Los Angeles to explore various business ventures.Despite their differing career paths, both Matt and Brendan shared a passion for the fitness industry. They had an opportunity to experience Xponential, a prominent player in the boutique fitness space, and were thoroughly impressed by the brand's comprehensive offering, innovative business model, and global success franchising complementary boutique fitness concepts.Inspired by their exposure to Xponential, Matt decided to bring CycleBar, the largest indoor-cycling brand, back with him to their hometown. Meanwhile, Brendan, after retiring from trading, embarked on his own entrepreneurial journey by developing Club Pilates.As the number of brands under their belts grew and the opportunities to scale effectively in Australia became more apparent, Brendan and Matt decided to join forces under the Boutique Fitness Studios (BFS) name, offering a portfolio of four distinct fitness brands under one umbrella. This strategic collaboration allowed them to leverage their combined expertise and resources to expand their reach and impact in the industry.With over 30 open locations and 90 studios already sold across the BFS group, their business continues to flourish with a focus on further expansion. The latest addition to their line-up, Rumble, has quickly become one of the hottest brands in the market, gaining significant popularity.
Excited about its potential, Brendan and Matt have plans to open five new Rumble studios this year, further solidifying their position in the boutique fitness industry.

ARE YOU GAME TO MYSTERY SHOP YOUR GYM?
Fitness business leaders spend hours (and money) on marketing and training their sales team, but do they know what happens when a prospect calls or visits the club?
Do they know how and if their squad delivers a beautiful experience?
Do they know what steps are being missed?
We have been mystery shopping gyms for over a decade and have in-depth data to share in the roundtables that can sharpen your sales process. For example, Saturday phone enquiries are generally 50% shorter than weekday phone calls.
You’ll be blown away by what we have found and the checklist we can provide you to go back to sharpen your skills so every prospect has a profound experience in your club and becomes a member.
Book your spot at Ignite Fitness Business Event
September 14th Melbourne Crown Plaza

And hear Justin and Lisa host a roundtable that will leave you booking a mystery shop and adding more profit to your business.

The world’s best fitness clubs and experience
Sunday May 14, 2023
Sunday May 14, 2023
The Fit Guide began with a chance conversation between Jack Thomas and Matt Lavender, two established names in fitness and hospitality, respectively, with over 25 years of combined experience. They recognised that while restaurants and hotels have internationally-respected rating systems that assess the quality and celebrate excellence, there was no industry standard, rating system or reliable, trusted guide for fitness clubs.
The global standard for fitness club and studio excellence was born.
Who is Jack Thomas?
Jack Thomas is the founder and CEO of BASE and the
Fitness Business Asia podcast host.
BASE is widely recognized as one of Asia’s leading fitness brands and is the winner of ‘Asia’s Gym of the Year’ in the 2018 Fitness Best Awards,
ClassPass ‘Bangkok’s Best Studio’ in 2020
and Thailand’s ‘Gym of the Year’ in 2021.
Jack regularly speaks at the region’s most significant fitness business events and conferences, including the FIT Summit, Asia Fitness Conference and ExPro Singapore.
As a consultant to the industry, he is in high demand, often having to turn clients away.
