Local Entrepreneurs and Longtime Friends Celebrate Grand Opening of Third JETSET Pilates Studio in Raleigh

Since opening their first studio in Downtown Raleigh’s Smoky Hollow District last fall, followed by their second in Holly Springs in October, Myers and Aquilino have quickly grown a loyal following drawn to JETSET’s premium Pilates workouts. The new North Hills studio will now bring that same elevated experience to a new corner of the community.

“North Hills is truly the cornerstone of Raleigh, known for its amazing culture, energy, and sense of community, and we’re so proud to bring JETSET to this area,” said Katie Myers. “Our goal is to create a space that feels welcoming, empowering, and inclusive for everyone, while giving back to the community that’s given us so much. We’re also incredibly grateful to the team at Kane Realty Corporation for their partnership and support in helping us bring this studio to life.”

As longtime Raleigh residents and real estate professionals, Myers and Aquilino have deep ties to the community they serve. Their shared background in business, passion for wellness, and commitment to inclusivity have fueled their success as franchise owners. With three Raleigh studios and plans to expand further across the Triangle, the duo continues to shape the local fitness landscape.

“Renee and Katie represent the heart of what makes JETSET Pilates so special,” said Bert Albertse, CEO of JETSET Pilates. “Their dedication to their community and to building a welcoming environment aligns perfectly with our mission of providing communities with an inspirational and accessible Pilates workout. North Hills is the perfect next step in their JETSET journey.”

The North Hills studio features 16 custom reformers and offers 50-minute, high-end classes combining strength, cardio, and Pilates-inspired movements set to DJ-curated music. Each class is designed to strengthen, lengthen, and energize both body and mind, reflecting the studio’s mission to blend premium fitness with a community-driven experience for all levels.
