ABOUT US
About Telomere
-
Telomere is a boutique fitness consultancy and marketing agency working exclusively with studio owners. Through Studionomics, our signature 1:1 consulting programme, we help studio owners build the strategy, systems, and clarity they need to grow with confidence. Through NurturEm and our full suite of marketing services, we handle the execution, from email and SMS automation to social media, paid advertising, and beyond. Everything we do is built specifically for boutique fitness and wellness studios.
-
Telomere works with boutique fitness and wellness studio owners at every stage of growth, from pre-launch through to multi-location expansion. Our clients span Pilates, yoga, barre, HIIT, indoor cycling, bootcamp, martial arts, pole dancing, personal training, and wellness modalities including infrared sauna, cold plunge, and IV drips. We work with studios around the world and across every major booking platform.
What our clients have in common is not their size or their stage. It is their commitment to building something that lasts and their openness to thinking strategically about how to get there.
-
Because we have lived it. Our team includes former studio owners, managers, instructors, and fitness industry veterans alongside marketing specialists, automation experts, and communications professionals. We know what it feels like to sweat a payroll, navigate a difficult staffing decision, and wonder whether the strategy is right.
We also know your software. Mindbody, Mariana Tek, Walla, Arketa, Momence. We build directly inside your existing systems, which means no workarounds and no generic solutions that ignore the platform you are actually on.

About Our Marketing & Business Services for Fitness Studios
-
Studionomics is Telomere's signature 1:1 consulting programme. It is a genuine strategic partnership, not a course or a template. We work with you on everything from KPI analysis and pricing strategy to operations, schedule design, marketing execution, and growth planning. Every engagement is built around your studio specifically. You can learn more about what is included here.
-
Nurturem is Telomere's email and SMS automation service. We map your studio's full customer journey and build the sequences that convert prospects into members, keep active clients engaged, and bring lapsed members back, all in your brand voice, all built directly inside your booking software. You can learn more here.
-
It depends. A few of Telomere's marketing services are available to all studio owners because they do not rely on your data to perform well. This means that some of our marketing services are in fact reserved for our consulting clients (active or graduated) because they perform best when built on a clear strategic foundation. If you are not sure where to start, a discovery call will help us figure out the right entry point for you.

Working With Us
-
It starts with a free 30-minute discovery call where we get to know your business and talk through where you are and where you want to be. From there we will put together a proposal tailored to your needs. Once we get started, you will have direct access to your Telomere team via a private Slack channel, regular strategy calls, and custom deliverables designed around your goals. Most studio owners tell us the biggest shift is simply having the right people in their corner.
-
A fitness studio business consultant works alongside you to assess your studio's strategy, systems, and operations and build a clear plan for sustainable growth. At Telomere that means deep KPI analysis, pricing and retention strategy, schedule design, marketing planning, and ongoing support to help you execute with confidence.
What our clients have in common is not their size or their stage. It is their commitment to building something that lasts and their openness to thinking strategically about how to get there.
-
It depends on where you are starting from and what we are working on together. Some clients see meaningful shifts within the first few weeks, particularly around marketing automation and quick-win strategy changes. Deeper structural work, like repositioning, pricing overhaul, or multi-location planning, takes longer to implement but tends to have the most significant long-term impact. We will always be clear with you about timelines and what to expect.
-
Our services are priced based on your studio's needs and the scope of work involved. We do not believe in one-size-fits-all packages, which is why we start with a discovery call before putting together a proposal. Book a call and we will talk through what makes sense for you.
-
Book a free 30-minute discovery call. It is informal, no obligation, and genuinely useful regardless of whether you decide to work with us. You will walk away with a clearer picture of where your biggest opportunities are.

Modalities + Fitness Studio Strategies
-
Telomere works with yoga studios at every stage, from studios figuring out their first marketing strategy to established yoga businesses ready to scale. Our consulting and marketing services are built around your specific modality, community, and goals, not a generic playbook.
-
Yes. Telomere has worked with Pilates and Lagree studios across multiple markets and understands the specific challenges of the modality, from pricing and scheduling to retention and community building.
-
Yes. Telomere's team includes specialists across Mindbody, Mariana Tek, Walla, Arketa, and Momence. We build directly inside your platform, which means our marketing and automation work is fully integrated with the software you already use.
-
Retention is one of the highest-leverage areas in boutique fitness. A strong retention strategy combines the right member communications, milestone recognition, re-engagement sequences, and community-building touchpoints to keep clients attending consistently and reduce churn. Telomere builds retention strategy into both our consulting and our NurturEm automation service.
-
Most studio owners who come to Telomere are not struggling because they lack effort or passion. They are struggling because growth requires a clear strategy, the right systems, and someone who understands boutique fitness from the inside out. The starting point is always an honest assessment of where you are, followed by a focused plan to close the gap between that and where you want to be. A free discovery call is the best place to start.
