WSS Redpoint advises the Cologne-based fitness startup YTTP on the investment by EPIX Sports as part of a financing round. EPIX Sports helps local sports providers grow into Europe-wide brands and operates brands including Mitte (padel), PACE RACE (social running) and ELEMENT Boulders (bouldering).

YTTP was set up in 2021 by Maria Graffelder together with Jan Graffelder and Armin Meraner and started out with a yoga studio. Today, YTTP operates boutique studios for Reformer Pilates & Strength in various cities, including Cologne, Berlin and Hamburg. The classes range from Fundamentals sessions for beginners to intensive Strength formats and adapt to every training level. Each studio has its own focus and character; classes can be booked online, via the app or through partners such as Urban Sports Club. With the YTTP Academy, the company also trains Pilates instructors.

With the financing round, YTTP intends to take the concept to further cities and expand its studio network to Stuttgart, Leipzig, Munich and Frankfurt, among others.

YTTP was advised on behalf of WSS Redpoint by Björn Brücher (corporate law) and Bonny Kern (IP/IT law).
