I took the 7 a.m. class with Yara, and she was such a great instructor! Loved the spanish music playlist, she was super attentive, and always there to help or offer guidance when needed. She was really encouraging throughout the whole class. The studio is also sooo cute!! I’ll definitely be coming back — highly recommend Rare Body Pilates!

I’ve been to a couple of classes here, but yesterday I went to Vi’s class yesterday and WOW!!! I am sore everywhere (in all the best ways). Her coaching and music were both so on point and you could tell she took the time to also get to know each person in her class. I will definitely be back!!

I absolutely love this studio! I go every day and it’s such a great workout and truly the best part of my routine. The waitlists are never bad (if there even is one), and all the instructors are fantastic. Mack’s classes are definitely my favorite! Couldn’t recommend this place more.

The workouts are fine, but it’s ridiculous that men are allowed to strip down shirtless in class. If women are expected to stay covered, men should be held to the same standard. Nobody comes here to see sweat flying off bare chests and onto others in personal mats. Wear a shirt like the rest of us.

I've been going to Rare Body for a few weeks now, and I honestly can't say enough good things. The instructors are not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also warm, supportive, and genuinely fun. Every class is a perfect balance of challenge and encouragement, and I always leave feeling stronger, more centered, and energized.
The studio itself has such a welcoming vibe. Whether you're brand new to Pilates or have been practicing for years, this is the kind of place where you feel seen, supported, and pushed (in the best way).
Huge shout-out to Lyss for being an absolute pro and creating such a positive space. Highly recommend to anyone looking to build strength and feel better in their body!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Rare Body Pilates! Every instructor here is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also so supportive and motivating. I’ve tried many types of workouts in the past, but nothing compares to the results I’ve gotten from these Pilates classes at Rare Body. Whether it’s reformer Pilates, mat Pilates, strength training, or core-focused sessions, each workout is challenging in the best way and leaves me feeling stronger, leaner, and more energized.
The studio has such a welcoming and positive atmosphere that makes every class something I look forward to. The instructors take time to correct form, personalize modifications, and push you to reach your goals. My posture has improved, my core feels stronger, and I’ve noticed a huge difference in my flexibility and overall muscle tone.
If you’re looking for the BEST Pilates classes, expert instructors, and a place where you’ll get an incredible full-body workout every single time, RareBody is it. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to build strength, improve flexibility, and get truly transformative results!

I took Hanna Tandberg’s class this past Saturday and it was fantastic. The workout was both challenging and rewarding, and I really appreciated her well-structured class plan and clear, intentional guidance. I’ve even found myself correcting my form at the gym thanks to her instruction. I’ll definitely be making her class a regular part of my weekly workout routine!

Cristina is hands down one of my favorite instructors at Rare Body Pilates! Her classes have such a great flow, each movement builds on the one before, gradually getting more challenging in the best way. I always leave feeling like I got a great full-body workout. She’s so knowledgeable and friendly, if you’re taking a class on Monday or Wednesday I highly recommend signing up with Cristina!

My daughter, introduced me to this place and all I can say is that the facility is amazing. When I walked in I immediately felt like this is the place to do pilates. There a plenty of reformers, a hot room for mat pilates, and a very nice boutique with work out clothes and accessories. I've taken two mat pilates classes in the hot room with a new instructor, Lauren and she has delivered a great workout both times. I highly recommend Rare Body Pilates.

Best reformer experiences I have had in the Tampa Bay region. Comparable to other studios I’ve liked around the country. Have a great, challenging and restorative practice each time I come in for class. I also appreciate the smaller session sizes for more focused teaching— allowing for more personalized tips, modifications, advancements etc. Great vibe and kind faces. Will have to try infrared mat one of these days.

I’ve been with Rare Bodies Pilates since day one, and it’s truly become like family to me. The instructors are amazing—every class is fresh, fun, and makes me feel stronger inside and out. Collette, the owner, just opened a new studio in Tampa and I couldn’t be prouder. This place is so much more than a workout—it’s home.

I literally felt like a new woman at the end of my first class. I don't know what took me so many years to finally start pilates. But it was this particular Studio, Rare Body, that I felt so amazing the first time I ever stepped in here! Colette is down to earth with superpowers. So Love, so kind, so genuine. The space is ultra cool, very comfortable place to be. Women of all ages here, reforming themselves. I'm finally excited to exercise again. Rare Body got me connected to that place inside of myself. Thank you to everyone that is a part of this amazing experience here ~

I was visiting St. Petersburg from Atlanta and dropped in for a class at Rare Body Pilates and I’m so glad I did! The studio has such a clean, welcoming vibe, and you can really feel the intention behind every detail.
I took a class with Alyssa and she was fantastic. Her cueing was super clear, and she offered great modifications while still keeping the class challenging. Her energy was calm but motivating, and I loved how connected she was with the room. It’s clear she’s not just teaching a workout, she’s creating a full experience.
Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Rare Body is absolutely worth checking out. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town!

I really love the hot yoga class here. It’s a 75-minute restorative yoga session, and you feel like jello afterward. Ami is a fantastic instructor.
My only complaint is that there is a Pilates class happening at the same time. The noise from the Pilates class and instructor can be a bit loud, making it hard to concentrate and relax during the yoga session.
On a positive note, there is plenty of on-site parking available.

Pilates was recommended to me to recover from a nagging sports injury. I chose Rare Body because of its convenient location to my other activities and off street parking. Originally I wasn’t sure if I would just do it in the short term to recover or add it to my longer term fitness plans. Because the classes as so different, and I feel so much better I have added Hot Mat to the reformer classes and this is the best I have felt in quite some time. Ultimately it does come down to people. EVERY instructor is challenging, helpful and welcoming and that is what keeps me coming back.

All ladies are amazing. I think so far I took class with all of them.
But..Sam and Janan-another level. You want to feel it? These two will make you feel it 😂 love them all, they are all awesome, but for my body and intensity of work out, I always choose classes with them! Also, I took private classes with Janan, and she is the reason I learn correct pilates, and got to love it so much!
I also forgot to say that I had shoulder issue. I was not able to lift my right arm and stretch it, I went to doctor, also I was seeing chiropractor, but it didn’t help me. I wasted a lot of money.
I told ladies at pilates studio about my issue, and they would always throw in some exercises for shoulder in group class because of me, and that was so nice.
Now, 7 months later-I can fully lift and stretch my right arm. 🥹🥹❤️

I’m so glad that I found Rare Body nearly a year ago. I absolutely love hot classes and every single teacher has a unique approach and, I need to add, personality. This studio is focused on ensuring you have the right posture, and aren’t just quickly going through moves. You can expect to get adjusted throughout the class, which I appreciate so I don’t injure myself.
I recommend trying out this studio. All the classes are great and there’s an amazing variety so you don’t get bored.

My doctor and massage therapist recommends I try Pilates as a part of my rehab from an Injury. I was very nervous to try a class as it is WAY out of my comfort zone. I felt so welcomed and supported at Rare Body right from the start even though I am a total beginner. I have now been doing Pilates consistently at Rare Body for three months and it has significantly impacted my quality of life for the better. Every instructor has their own style of teaching and they are all amazing. They are fierce and strong women who truly care about every client. They will answer questions and cheer you on the entire time. The studio is beautiful and clean. They have coffee, tea, the best water fill up station, and cute merch for sale. 🫶🏻

I just recently celebrated my one year anniversary of Pilates classes at Rare Body. To say it's been life-changing would be an understatement. I feel better mentally and physically, my body is so much stronger, and I've made friends with staff and fellow members to last a lifetime. They are kind and welcoming to my husband, too - he can't stop telling people how much he enjoys being there as well. I think his favorite staff member is Foxy the Papillon, lol (it's a close race, though!). This is a rare gem in St. Pete, y'all - do you and your family a favor and GO.

Don’t be scared to give it a try and if you’re a seasoned Pilates pro… they will also give you a run for your money!

This is probably my favorite place to frequent in St Pete, coming from West Hollywood then Las Vegas to a small city that is lacking in some of the yoga and Pilates options, I was very happy to find this studio. The owner Colette has done an amazing job putting this place together, it’s very clean and has a nice water filling station and everything you need for your classes, as well as a small boutique in the front. The whole team is amazing here and it feels like home. Not to mention the technical skills and wealth of knowledge that all the staff has. They also have an amazing cold plunge tub and infrared sauna. Options for private, group reformer, and group hot mat classes. Janan is the most difficult, if you’re looking for a serious challenge she is amazing! Every instructor here is absolutely amazing, they involve a lot of techniques and skills as well.

Great Pilates studio! I only did reformer classes but found them the perfect amount of challenging and rewarding. Staff were super friendly (Tatiana was always smiling when I came in) and teachers were super knowledgeable and also friendly.
I also booked a few cold plunge and sauna sessions, which were great. My only complaint was that the A/C was a bit too high in the room, which made the cold plunge experience a bit more challenging than it already is! Very small gripe that doesn’t impact the overall experience too much.
Overall, I definitely recommend supporting this female owned, independent Pilates studio without hesitation.

Rare Body is one of the best Pilates studios I have been to. I formerly lived in California and have been practicing Pilates for over 10 years. I have practiced numerous styles of Pilates and I love Rare Body! Colette, the owner is an amazing instructor and has put together an amazing team in a beautiful and clean studio. Janan is my favorite! Her mat classes are amazing, they are never the same and she is always presenting new exercises! I find the classes to be comfortably challenging. Don’t worry beginners, she always offers modifications creating a good class for all levels. The preparation and effort that Janan puts into her classes is 100% noticeable whether you take her mat or reformer class you will never repeat the same workout. If you are a local their community is very welcoming. If you are visiting the drop in classes are easy to sign up for. Must visit!
Thank you Rate Body Pilates team!

Whether you're a Pilates novice or an experienced practitioner, the instructors tailor each class to accommodate all levels, ensuring a challenging yet accessible workout for everyone.
The studio itself is a serene haven that immediately puts you at ease. (especially their cute green wall and the hot room )
The clean and well-maintained space is equipped with top-notch Pilates equipment, making every session enjoyable and effective. I appreciate the attention to detail in creating an environment that promotes focus, relaxation, and overall well-being.
What sets Rare Body Pilates apart is their commitment to personalized attention and they take the time to know your name. This approach not only ensures proper form but also fosters a sense of community among participants.
Special shout outs to Collette the owner, Samantha R., Janan, Sanna, and Tali for always being amazing.

Love this studio! The staff is so welcoming. I visited for the first time and took Ami’s Yin class. This is the only heated yin class that I have seen in the area. I’ve taken almost every yin class in St. Pete and this was by far my favorite. Ami’s way of guiding the class and providing the perfect blend of therapeutic stretching and relaxation made this the perfect yin class. I was hesitant to even post this because they only offer this once per week and I have a feeling that it’ll be hard to get into soon. All of the other first-timers were just as happy as me and we all plan on returning. Can’t wait to get into a reformer class. They also offer warm mat Pilates, barre, cold plunge, and sauna. Looking forward to trying all of it. Very happy to have them in the neighborhood 🧘♀️💜

The instructors are all amazing and assist with format and really explain how you should be positioned and where you should feel the burn. My body has changed so much!

The workouts are tough & the instructors are knowledgable and personable. I also appreciate that the cold plunge isn't chlorinated - they use a natural alternative to clean the plunge. That said, I’d highly recommend reading the fine print of any membership. Cancelation policy requires 30 days notice, so if you cancel a day after you’re charged for a month, you’ll be charged the following month at full price.

I absolutely LOVE Rare Body Pilates - I have been doing Pilates for over 10+ years I was new in town to St Pete and I drove by and was like damn that place is SO cute - I want to go there. Well the cuteness on the outside matches not only the cuteness, cleaninless of the inside but EVERY instructor I have taken is knowledgeable, teaches well thought out classes, provides great direction and leaves my body feeling, stronger, more flexible and open. Not only are the reformer classes exceptional, but the HOT matte classes are fire too!! So happy to have this place — I even drive an hour just to get here that’s how GOOD it is!! ✨✨✨✨✨✨

This is the place. I’ve been a member here since February and can’t imagine practicing Pilates anywhere else. Every teacher is awesome and brings their own unique flair to class. All of the classes are approachable but challenging. I don’t think I’ve ever done the same class sequence twice which constantly keeps my body guessing and engaging different muscles. The space is very chic and clean. Not only are the employees warm and welcoming but so are the people who come to workout! Plenty of amenities too like free coffee, clothing boutique, cold plunge and sauna. I’m obsessed with the reformer but the hot mat class is just as spicy! Highly recommend to any looking to tone up, build strength or find an incredible fitness community!

I took my first class earlier this week and I’ve been back three times in the last four days, I think that says something! This studio is fantastic!
I have tried Pilates at another studio years ago and was not a fan, as you could imagine I was quite skeptical about trying it again… however I am SO thankful I did!!! Colette (the owner) and Tali are brilliant instructors, I am certain the others are as well, I just haven’t taken their classes YET 😉.
The classes are suited for all fitness levels, shapes and sizes! I love the diversity. Note: if you’re a beginner, take the full-body beginner class to start, I did because I didn’t know what to expect and they made it equally as challenging or modified for each individual person. It’s like personal training in a group session. Win win!
I am extremely passionate about fitness/ working out and I am no stranger to group fitness 😆 So trust me, you will not be disappointed!! Great energy, fun music with a chill laid-back environment. These girls are truly amazing, they acknowledge every student with personalized attention and really know their stuff!

There are FEW things I'm willing to be alive at 6:30 in the morning for and it turns out pilates at Rare Body Studio is one of them. I attended a beginner class a few weeks ago and it was fantastic. I knew I was out of shape and this class kicked my butt. Although, I felt amazing after. Using the reformer is quite fun because it feels like a roller coaster ride. Collette, the owner, is very sweet and helped me get signed up pretty quick. Rachael taught my class and she was helpful and encouraging. As soon as I figure out childcare, I'll be back very soon!

I cannot recommend this pilates studio more! I started with a single class, then a class package and have now moved on to a monthly membership - that is how much I love it and how great it feels to invest in myself!
Instructors - excellent they have that great mix of fun while pushing you to put in your best effort (whatever that may be for your fitness level)
Atmosphere - chic and motivating and great location in DTSP
Workouts - challenging and accommodating - all fitness levels are welcomed and the coaches are great at making the right adjustments based on your fitness level and your body's needs - form and strength are the baseline to every class. Be prepared to work those muscles!
All in all, I have felt my body become stronger with each class as well as my confidence in myself increase. I love the studio and highly recommend to anyone regardless of where you are in your health and fitness journey!

I absolutely LOVE this studio! I found them through a friend at the end of my first pregnancy and I have to say, these classes really helped me prep for delivery. I was one of the unlucky and terribly nauseous/sick women for all 40+ weeks, and the instructors were amazing at helping me maintain some activity in those last few weeks. I worked with both Collette and Taylor who were great at providing me modifications and cues to engage the correct muscles safely, even in group classes I felt like I was getting lots of one on one attention. Maybe I was lucky, or my body was prepared, but I had a very easy delivery and my core strength has come back very quickly. Now that I am back postpartum, all the instructors have been amazing. Rachel was quick to correct my form in my first class back and always reminding me to take breaks and reset when I needed. Collette has always followed up with a text/phone message to be sure things are healing well and she graciously extended my account so that my sessions didn’t expire while I was out unable to attend classes. I feel like this studio is warm, welcoming, and very supportive and would definitely recommend to anyone (novice/master) to take a class! Best in the Bay!!!

I had never done a Pilates reformer class before coming to Rare Body studio and now I’m hooked! I would highly recommend booking a private class for your first session so that you may get used to the equipment. My first session was with Taylor. She is such a positive and uplifting teacher who makes fun food analogies while you are training, like “imagine you have a blueberry under your lower back”.
The owner Collette is welcoming and very experienced. She previously ran a Pilates studio in New York City and opened this studio in 2020. Her method of teaching is focused on correct form and protecting the lower back which I really appreciate. I would highly recommend this studio for anyone, regardless of fitness levels as it is a low impact but highly effective workout.

I love this studio! Colette is awesome and really takes time to educate on form and muscle engagement. The studio is so clean and inviting. The machines are amazing. I have been to other studios where I really felt the machine put too much strain on my stabilizing muscles, which just didn't work for me. I don't have that issue AT ALL here!
