## Story

Santa Clara, CA – JETSET Pilates is expanding to Northern California with the opening of its first Bay Area Studio in Santa Clara. The studio is owned and operated by Shan Dey. Preview classes begin on August 10, 2026 with the grand opening celebration planned for August 29, 2026, featuring local vendors, light bites and drinks, access to discounted Founding Memberships, and exclusive JETSET swag.

The brand’s community-first approach and welcoming environment, where members feel supported, connected and empowered throughout their fitness journey, aligned closely with Shan’s vision for his next business journey. Marking a major milestone for the brand, the Santa Clara studio will introduce JETSET Pilates to the Bay Area for the first time, serving as the first out of three locations Shan plans to open across the region.

“After years in the technology industry, I wanted to build something that would make a direct impact on the people who live here,” said Shan. “What drew me to JETSET Pilates was seeing members leave every class with a smile and a real sense of accomplishment. We are excited to bring this experience to the Bay Area and create a space where people can invest in their health and build confidence with their community.”

After over two decades of building a career in data engineering, including leadership positions at Meta and Realtor.com, Shan was ready to pursue a business that would allow him to create a lasting impact within his local community. That goal led him to JETSET Pilates.

“Bringing JETSET Pilates to the Bay Area is an exciting milestone for our brand, and Shan is a fantastic franchise partner to lead the expansion,” said Tamara Galinsky, Founder and Brand President of JETSET Pilates. “His passion for community, paired with his entrepreneurial vision and analytical background, will create an incredible experience for the community.”
