I could not be more thankful for all of the instructors at Georgia James. During my time at the studio I built strength and confidence in Pilates. I am currently in Albania and although I do not know the language, I am still able to successfully complete a reformer Pilates class because of everything I learned at GJ! Pilates meets you where you are - Joseph Pilates. 💕

I started Reformer Pilates here a few months ago, and I genuinely look forward to every class. The instructors strike the perfect balance between challenging you and making sure you feel comfortable and safe. They’re incredibly hands-on with corrections (in the best way), and they genuinely care about helping you progress.
What I really appreciate is how the classes never feel repetitive—there’s always a new focus or variation that keeps things interesting. You work hard, but in such a mindful way that you leave feeling refreshed rather than drained.
The studio itself is calming, and well-maintained, with a welcoming energy that makes it easy to settle in—even if you’re new. It’s been a game-changer for my core strength and mobility, and I feel more in tune with my body than I ever have.

Update: I just want to say I'm still going and it's still fantastic! If you've never tried reformer pilates this is the place to go!
What a fantastic studio! I had never taken a Reformer Pilates class before attending my first Georgia James class a few months ago. I am so impressed by the significant changes I have seen in my body since I started. The instructors are so kind and helpful. I recommend this studio to anyone, especially if this is your first or millionth time attending a reformer class. Thank you for providing such a motivating, kind, and fun studio.

This is hands-down my favorite reformer Pilates studio! The atmosphere is so welcoming and motivating—it’s the kind of place you actually look forward to coming to. The equipment is clean, and the teachers are truly incredible. Every instructor brings something unique, and the classes are always challenging, and dynamic. I leave every session feeling stronger, more centered, and totally accomplished. If you’re looking for a studio that pushes you in the best way while keeping things fresh and fun, this is the one!

I've been attending Georgia James Pilates for over 2 years now, with more than 500 classes under my belt, and I can honestly say this studio has become an essential part of my life. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, supported, and challenged in the best possible way.
The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Each brings their own unique style, which keeps the classes fresh, engaging, and effective. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, they always offer thoughtful modifications and cues to ensure you’re getting the most out of your workout safely.
After 500+ classes, I’ve seen real physical and mental transformations. My strength, posture, and flexibility have improved significantly, and I always leave class feeling energized and grounded. If you're looking for your new favorite workout environment, Georgia James Pilates should be at the top of your list!!!

I was introduced to Reformer Pilates when this studio opened in 2022. The workouts are challenging and and the instructors are fabulous. As I get older (yes, I have a Medicare card), I see the importance of core strength, balance and stability now more than ever. I highly recommend Georgia James. No matter what your fitness level, they will make it work for you.

Love this studio! I am new to Pilates and wanted to give it a try to improve mobility and core strength. I ended up becoming obsessed with reformer Pilates that I try to come 3-4 times a week. The instructors are helpful with demonstrating each movement so you’re able to follow along, they’re mindful of injuries and limitations so there’s no issue with modifying a movement. They also encourage you to push yourself if it’s an area you’re strong in. Each instructor has a unique personality and style of teaching so it’s great to have a variety. A very welcoming and friendly studio. I highly recommend!

I absolutely love Georgia James Pilates! I am obsessed with the amazing workouts. They are intense, they are challenging, but your body is so well supported by the reformer during each move that all of the back and knee injuries I have had have disappeared. The instructors are very helpful and supportive and its an overall nice and welcoming group of people. Highly recommend!

I love Georgia James Pilates. It has a very nice atmosphere and the staff is amazing and sweet. I like that every class is different and target different parts. It’s nice to have a variation of instructors. I have been going for 7 months now and my experience at this studio has been amazing.

I have been a member of Georgia James Pilates since 02/2022, and I have not looked back. I was new to reformer and wanted a full body workout that I could do 2-3 times per week and get results, and I got much more than that! Reformer tones, helps alignment and increases flexibility. It does not matter your age, level of fitness or experience, Georgia James Pilates classes are very diverse with students of all shapes, sizes and age, we all practice as one and help motivate and lift each other up. The instructors are awesome, very knowledgeable and welcoming to anyone that walks through the door. I highly recommend giving this studio a try, you will not regret it!

I recently took my first reformer class at Georgia James Pilates and I could not be happier with the experience! I do not exercise regularly and my flexibility is not the best, but I was able to have a great workout with a very knowledgeable instructor whose name was Mallory. The studio is very nice and the class I took was very laid back and friendly, I did not feel intimidated but very welcomed and relaxed. I would highly recommend Georgia James Pilates no matter what your level of experience. We can only better ourselves with practice.

This studio is the BEST! If you are looking for a full body, intense workout then you’ve found it. The studio has an amazing collection of the most energetic and educated instructors to give you a wide variety of workouts to keep your body guessing and always getting better. I have tried many Pilates studios (some group and some private) but have never found an experience like at Georgia James Pilates. If you are new then I urge you to try and stick with it. What can seem intimidating and fast paced at first will quickly become second hand. It takes commitment and a “don’t quit” attitude as it is a very difficult, and often faced paced, workout. Be patient as it can take several sessions to get comfortable and it is not for the faint of heart but the instructors and the membership are all very encouraging and want everyone to advance at their own pace to become the best version of themselves through continual, steady and progressive improvement. If you want the best workout of your life and to become strong in body and mind give this a shot. You won’t regret it.

I love Georgia James Pilates! The studio is beautiful and the instructors are all so incredibly nice. I’ve been going consistently for over 3 months and really feel and see a difference. My lower back problems are almost gone and my strength has greatly improved thanks to the continued resistance training Reformer Pilates provides. Each class is different and the instructors are very attentive—making sure to share ways to modify and challenge ourselves for each move if we so choose. Classes are unique and the instructors always share new moves to try so you never get bored. You will definitely break a sweat and get an amazing stretch at the same time.

Reformer pilates is the *only* exercise that I have ever actually enjoyed and seen a true difference in the tone of my body. I cannot say enough amazing things about the instructors at GJP. My wrists and lower back sometimes give me problems and the instructors always offer up a modification that is best for my body. I also love the community of people that attend the classes. I know I can always connect with someone in the room. The owner Krista is a gem too, and is my favorite instructor. She makes it challenging enough that you can feel the burn, but is always the first to tell you to do what is best for your body without any judgement.

This is NOT a studio for anyone new to Reformer Pilates..I have recently been spending extended periods of time in Savannah. One of my priorities was to find spaces that offer Reformer Pilates classes as it is my main source of exercise (it does wonders for any body type!). Georgia James Studio is one of the 3 studios where I have taken classes to see if it would be a good fit. Sadly the answer here is no. This is a place where you must already have full knowledge of Reformer workouts, there is no instruction only direction and imho poor direction at that. I have only two years experience on the reformer but that is definitely enough to know when a class is more about “powering through” rather than doing the holistic body/ mind connection process that has kept me coming back to reformer pilates. The app is poor as well, no class descriptions nor levels listed and no instructor backgrounds available. If you are looking for a “power” style class and have experience already, don’t want any instructor attention to your form or whether you are doing the exercises correctly (Pilates is nuanced and can easily be done incorrectly which can lead to injury) then this could be what you are looking for. But DO NOT come here unless you already have LOTS of experience on the Reformer.
Finally, I will say my experience here felt like walking into a mean girls club. The owner was dismissive (both times I met her) and the other patrons were cliquey. For the most part I am easy going and friendly, but I make every effort to be that especially when in any exercise setting. I know it can be hard for me to show up in tights in front of strangers so smiling and being kind to others can be so helpful. I gave the benefit of the doubt and tried 3 different classes but my experience was mostly the same except for the one instructor I mention below.
The studio itself is clean and organized, and there was one particularly kind instructor that was helpful with information about classes etc therefore the 2 stars.
I won’t be going back to this studio but I would say, depending on what you are seeking, take a class and see for yourself ONLY if you are already adept on the reformer.

I’m visiting from out of town and wasn’t able to check in to my Airbnb until 1, so I popped into Mallory’s noon class. It was excellent! The studio is beautiful. I had to bring my luggage with me, but there was plenty of room. Mallory was a great instructor and super clear. The class was challenging without ever leaving me uncomfy. Highly recommend- thank you!

Loved it here! I went to a previous Pilates studio in town that was very uptight and unwelcoming but this was the complete opposite. Loved the chill atmosphere and great workout Rebecca provided! Also loved how there were always options to tone things down if needed.
