My favorite place in all of Nashville. The studio is so intimate where the max number of people taking a class is 8. The method is great for every body, and all the instructors work on what your body needs. Would highly recommend this studio, and I hope they expand to outside of Nashville 💛

Pure Pilates Class with Samantha at Body & Ballet Co. (9/19/2025)
Samantha was SO sweet and a great instructor. This was my first Barre/Pilates-type class, and I enjoyed it a lot (booked through ClassPass for my first class here). She let me borrow a pair of her own grippy socks! She incorporated some yoga for breaks and stretches, and that was nice. Great energy, encouragement, and guidance.
I told her l'm on day 52/75 Hard and she was so kind in the class knowing l'd done another workout earlier this morning, haha. I struggled with an ab move later in the class, and she helped me by holding my feet down and was so encouraging with it ll.
The studio is intimate, clean and pretty with a nice atmosphere, plus free parking/easy access! I would definitely come back and take more classes with Samantha; highly recommend!!! Looking into getting a class pack here soon.
Thank you! :)

I’ve tried lots of workout studios,
and this one is the very first one that I’ve ever called home by getting a membership! Every instructor is kind, professional, and attentive! The studio itself is gorgeous and intimate with relaxing, warm lighting and chill music. It’s always well kept, smells nice, and is clean! From my early days in elementary school PE, group fitness has always made me feel a little anxious and a bit intimidated, but the small class size and warm welcome from these instructors have kept me coming back! The workouts are challenging, but the instructors are more than willing to give modifications for needs that anyone in the class may have and encourage everyone to listen to their own bodies. I always look forward to my classes here and know that I’ll leave with happy muscles and a smile every time!

I have LOVED being a member of BB&Co for the past 6 months. Saturdays with Melissa have been the best part of the year! They offer a ton of member perks and host fun pop ups and events. Great classes and every instructor is awesome and super willing to work with you if you need help on anything!
I also have to add that you do NOT have to have Ballet experience to do these classes! I have never danced a day in my life and I have the best time!

I had a great welcoming experience and great stretches for my recent neck and knee pain - coming out stronger than ever! Their 5 styles of workouts are perfect: pure matt, ballet blend, sleek stretch, beyond barre & foundation+. Thanks to owner/ friend Melissa Chera (who has brought her studio to participate in our annual Fit Crawl 2 Fight Breast Cancer) & her amazing instructors!

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. I have been doing Pilates for a decade and am quite strong, but Melissa offered modifications for every level from beginner to advanced, so anyone could take it! There is a 6 person max in class, which allows for personalized attention. The space itself is beautiful and calming, a perfect refuge from the day to day hustle. Melissa was so warm and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things. If I lived in Nashville, I would no doubt be a regular. It is unlike anything else I have done, and NO it is not a dance studio. Just an awesome low-impact effective workout and great vibes all around. I will be back on my next visit to Nashville!

Kelly was amazing at guiding the class through the stretches. She clear and articulate in her wording to help the class not guess what muscles we should be using/feeling. 1000% would take class again and the space is BEAUTIFUL

What a lovely studio, team, and grand opening! Body & Ballet Collective truly exceeded my expectations. The space is absolutely stunning, thoughtfully designed to create a welcoming and inspiring environment.
The team is so warm and professional, making everyone feel valued and at ease. You can tell they are passionate about what they do and dedicated to creating a positive experience for every guest.
From the moment I walked in, I felt a sense of community and creativity. The grand opening was seamless and filled with so much energy truly a reflection of the studio’s spirit. I can’t wait to return for more classes and to see all the incredible things this space has to offer. Highly recommend!

Loved this class! As a former professional dancer it felt so nice to get back in touch with my ballet roots. The studio space is nice & very aesthetically pleasing! Our instructor (pardon me, I don’t remember her name) moved at a perfect pace and had a cheerful demeanor. If my body can look like hers or the wonderful lady behind the desk, I’m sold! Will be back for sure! Thanks ladies 🩷

I LOVE BBCO!! It was a small class, just three of us plus Melissa, our instructor. We really got to learn new techniques, I learned about different parts of the body to stretch, as well as left the class feeling amazing. It’s such an intimate studio, I love the feel. Can’t wait to take another class!

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. The studio itself is absolutely beautiful as well! I highly recommend Body & Ballet Collective to anyone looking for a fun, ballet-based workout!

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. This is a fitness class first and foremost and I'm feeling the burn in places I didn't even know could. The movements look easy but when you incorporate a bit a weight and really focus on your form and controlled movements it really does make for an effective workout. Each instructor has their own style and no two classes have been the same which I appreciate. They are very welcoming to all and for all the men out there give it a shot.

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. I can’t even explain how amazing my first class was—I took Emily’s Ballet Blend class and it ended with me in happy tears! I had never done a workout that mixed ballet moves with piano music, and I just felt so much joy in that kind of movement. It was truly a special experience that I had never experienced before.
Since then, I’ve been back to several classes and am now an official member! Every class is challenging, but in the best way, and there’s this peaceful vibe to each class that makes the whole workout feel different. You get an amazing workout, that you actually enjoy (which I can’t say for other workouts I’ve tried at other studios). The time goes by so fast, and I’m honestly sad when the class ends.
But beyond the classes, one of the things that makes Body & Ballet Co. so special is the community. From the very first class, I felt so welcomed, like I was part of the family. Melissa, the owner, has clearly put her heart and soul into creating this space, and it shows in EVERYTHING—from the atmosphere to the way everyone treats each other. Most studios I’ve been to before can feel kind of isolating, but here, I feel seen and cared for as both a student and a person.
I’ve never been a morning person, but since joining, it’s been so easy waking up early to go to these classes before work. The instructors are all so kind, the classes are amazing, and the sense of community is genuinely unmatched. I seriously can’t recommend this place enough. I’m so grateful BBCO exists, and I’m so excited to keep coming back!!
