The group, founded in 2005, has about 26,000 members and 10 health clubs, nine located in Bavaria and one in Baden- Wuerttemberg. Recently two new facilities were opened in Augsburg and Nuremberg in 2012.

"Gyms are enjoying a growing popularity in Germany.  Since 2005, the number of members in gyms has increased by 2.5 million to 7.5 million members today. We expect a further increase to about 10 million members in 2017. From this growth particularly well-positioned brands in the premium and discount segments will benefit disproportionately. Therefore we are proud that we have found a professional partner with NORD Holding to help with high commitment to our expansion goals, "says Stephan Schulan, co-founder and managing partner of the Jumpers group from Rosenheim.

NORD Holding holds 65% of the future Jumpers shares, management 20% and an industry-experienced private investor 15%.
