PlankeApp is a hiring platform for the boutique fitness industry that connects studios with local instructors for Pilates, yoga, barre, and indoor cycling. Studios post substitute shifts, permanent positions, and teaching gigs; instructors browse and apply for free. PlankeApp is available on the web and as iOS and Android apps, and focuses specifically on the boutique fitness market rather than general job listings.
What PlankeApp does
PlankeApp is a marketplace for boutique fitness hiring. It gives studios a place to advertise open classes and gives instructors a single place to find them, instead of relying on word of mouth, Instagram DMs, or general job boards that were not built for studio teaching.
- Job listings by modality and city. Browse Pilates, yoga, barre, and cycle instructor jobs, filtered down to the city you want to teach in.
- Substitute and permanent roles. Studios post one-off sub shifts as well as recurring part-time and permanent positions.
- Instructor profiles. Instructors build a profile so studios can see their modalities, certifications, and experience.
- Direct connection. Studios and instructors connect through the platform rather than chasing each other across separate channels.
Who PlankeApp is for
PlankeApp serves two sides of the same market. For instructors, it is a free way to find local teaching work — sub shifts to build hours and network, or permanent roles at a studio you want to grow with. Many instructors on the platform are certified through programs like STOTT PILATES, BASI, and Balanced Body.
For studio owners and managers, it is a way to fill classes quickly with instructors who actually teach the format they need — without a cancelled class when a regular teacher is out, and without sifting through unqualified applicants from a general job site.
How PlankeApp works
- A studio posts a job — the modality, location, schedule, and whether it is a sub shift or a permanent role.
- Instructors browse and apply for free, on the web or in the iOS and Android apps.
- The studio and instructor connect to confirm the details and book the class.
What makes PlankeApp different
PlankeApp is built specifically for boutique fitness, not as a general-purpose job board. Listings are framed around studio teaching — class formats, apparatus, certifications, and sub versus permanent work — so studios reach instructors who teach their modality and instructors see roles that fit their training. The platform pairs that focus with city-level job boards and career resources like the Pilates instructor career guide.
