From the reviews

Body & Ballet Co. is honestly one of the biggest blessings I’ve come across since moving to Nashville. I had just moved here from Los Angeles and was on the hunt for a new workout studio. I’ve tried everything from yoga to Pilates, and being in a new city, I definitely wanted to try something new.

★★★★★ — Adeliz, Nov 2024

I rarely leave reviews but this had to be done! What a unique and wonderful studio! I was visiting for work, and luckily came upon this gem. The Pure Mat class was challenging, yet therapeutic.

★★★★★ — Sofiya, Mar 2025

I was introduced to this studio shortly after they opened and I've been back a few times a week ever since. I was a bit nervous my first class as a man who never had any formal dance training but the instructors are very patient, kind, and want you to succeed.

★★★★★ — Michael, Dec 2024

I really enjoyed my workout at Body & Ballet Collective! I took the Ballet Blend class and it was a unique and challenging workout experience that blended ballet techniques with strength training exercises. My instructor, Kelly, was extremely knowledgeable and motivating.

Your first barre class at Body & Ballet Co | Balletic Pilates & Barre Fitness

New to barre? Almost everyone is their first time, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: barre blends small isometric holds and tiny pulses at a ballet barre with light weights and mat work — it's low-impact and joint-friendly, but it works muscles you didn't know you had, so a little shaking in your legs is the point, not a problem. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: fitted leggings and a top you can move in — nothing baggy, so the instructor can see your form. Grip socks: required here, and sold on-site if you don’t have a pair; the grippy soles keep you steady during the pulses. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Barre is low-impact, so it suits most bodies and fitness levels — but if you're pregnant or working around an injury, check with a doctor and let your instructor know so they can offer modifications.
