I take my feedback very seriously so when I say, I think this place is an amazing fit and probably for many types of people I mean it. The exercise and workout is amazing and Pilates is so passive on the joints but really really good for the mental, body and Spirit I am lucky to have found this studio. I feel the people are extremely genuine. The classes are small. The workouts are amazing. I absolutely love it here.

I have tried multiple pilates studios in the area and I keep coming back to Native. I was actually very excited that a new studio was opening 5 minutes from my house and even though I knew it was a franchise/corp, I honestly thought I'd make the switch just because it was so close. I went to an intro class and realized that there really is no place like Native and I'll keep driving the extra 10-15 min to stay at your studio :) Keep up the good work! Never sell out!

This has been a literal blessing for my over all body strengthening, to include a back issue that I have had for years and now have reduced my chiropractic needs considerably.
This facility is clean and bright, the staff amazingly knowledgeable, attentive, friendly as well as incredibly creative with what they teach...not a dull class ever and always challenging my growth in strength. (Personal training is also available and highly encouraged by me!)
I would recommend Native Pilates to anyone and everyone and in fact have...now my daughter who just had a baby is on board!
I'm hooked and so will you be once you take the jump and not only see but feel the results of the inner body strength that you have, as well as reinvigorating the energy that you have been lacking.
(This coming from years of being a faithful gym rat and only thought I was using all of my muscles for strengthening...had no clue what I have been missing and Pilates would have actually helped me through my various gym routines!!)

I'm just in Nashville for a few days on business. I go to Pilates a few times a week back home and love it, but I didn't have high hopes for a random Pilates studio that I picked for the sole reason that it's next to my hotel.
But this place blew me away. Amanda Howard is a phenomenal teacher: inviting, warm, very clear, with excellent flow and structure in her classes. I can't get enough. I went three times in three days.
Definitely check this place out. You'll be glad you did.

I was visiting Nashville, and Native Pilates is conveniently located close to the Gaylord Hotel & Convention Center. It is a beautiful, clean and spacious studio equipped with the iconic luxurious Balanced Body convertible reformer-towers. Their highly skilled instructors teach both classical and contemporary, and I truly enjoyed their classes. I met the lovely owner, Amanda, and I appreciate their warm and friendly vibe. What a gem of a Pilates studio!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Native Pilates. As a male in a mainly female dominated setting throughout Pilates as a whole, I have thoroughly enjoyed every group and private session thus far on my journey to become stronger and more flexible. The instructors at Native are extremely knowledgeable, focused, welcoming and inclusive of all. I have found the process thus far to be completely transformative. Needless to say, I am hooked!

I joined Native Pilates in March 2023 not knowing a thing about Pilates Reformer and now I'm a fan!
Native Pilates offers a diverse array of classes to suit different needs and preferences; from mat Pilates to reformer sessions. What truly sets Native Pilates apart is the owner and its team of highly skilled and passionate instructors. I enjoy learning from this group of people.

Native Pilates is a great place to work on your strength and flexibility. And it is a great community of positive teachers and students. As a senior, I was hesitant to come in because of my poor level of fitness but Amanda put me at ease immediately. I didn't even know what a Pilates workout was. Then when I had not one, but two knee replacements, I was able to rehab so much more easily because of my time at Native. The amount of knowledge every professionally trained staff member brings to clients is amazing! Don't settle for a Pilates practice run by people without the correct level of training, come to Native and you will find teachers dedicated to helping live your best life.

Native Pilates is the best Pilates studio I have been to by a mile! Everyone was so welcoming and non judgemental, and each teacher was exceptionally knowledgable and attentive to each member.
I was challenged and encouraged in every class, and left feeling so grateful for my body and mind. Thank you! Bekka x

The most valuable thing about Amanda is her personal attention to detail. Far more than a physical therapist or medical doctor, her focus is on individual needs. Small things become large -- like how to sit and stand without adding stress or strain. Kindness, listening and sensitivity are her keys, plus expert attention to my particular concerns, because I have Congenital Scoliosis. I have learned more in a few sessions than in a few years of "expert" treatment from medical professionals.

Iβve taken classes with almost all of the teachers and they have all been stellar! I receive individual attention because the class sizes are small. The individual trainings with Mary have been life changing. She is intuitive, pays attention to what your body is doing (or not doing), and works hard to help you figure out how to better understand your body so that you avoid injury and get stronger. Amanda, the owner, is incredibly friendly and welcoming and an amazing teacher too, it sets the tone for the whole experience. Highly recommend!

A physical therapist recommended pilates to me for long-term maintenance of my scoliosis and postpartum recovery. She pointed me to Native Pilates, and I truly feel like my life has changed (for the better!!) because of my experiences here. Owner and instructor Amanda is equal parts experienced, knowledgeable, welcoming, and empowering. Her intentionality with her verbal instruction and her attention to the development of her instructor team, clients, studio, and herself make her a true gem to learn from. Everyone who is a part of this team and community genuinely cares about your well-being. They truly care about you doing what's best for your body and helping you improve your physical strength and overall quality of life. My sessions at Native are both mental therapy and physical therapy. Even as a prior ballerina, I have never learned more about my body and the interconnectedness of my daily movements than when I learn from Amanda and her instructors. This studio is a beautifully safe space and I could not recommend it enough!

This pilates studio is absolutely incredible! The teachers are attentive and welcoming and pay special attention to any injuries you have. Classes are different every time so that itβs fun, engaging, and challenging. Iβve been taking for over 6 months and cannot believe how much stronger I feel! I wanted to pick a workout style I could stick with for YEARS to come and I can finally say I HAVE FOUND IT!

The instructors are very knowledgeable and can provide alternate options if the exercise/movement isn't agreeing with you and let us go at our own pace. Each staff member I've encountered is very welcoming and friendly. I also love the small class size.

My teacher, Amanda, was like a breathe of fresh air!! It was my first Pilates class ever and I felt like was *home*. From the second I walked in the environment was so welcoming, warm, and comfortable. The class was small and I felt Amanda gave each of us top priority, to me it felt like it was just her & I in the studio. Iβm so excited to have found this place and am booking my next session asap. <3

Amanda is s true professional. She knows her stuff and is great at assessing the client's needs. The atmosphere is welcoming, and I always leave feeling better than when I arrived. I'd recommend her to everyone I know, but then it'd be difficult for me to book sessions. :-)

The studio is great - clean, spacious, comfortable and well appointed with a variety of equipment. I'm new to Pilates and Stephanie has made the experience excellent and not overwhelming. She is great at explaining, helping modify and making us feel comfortable. I plan to continue our private sessions as well as starting some group classes.
Took an equipment class with the owner, Amanda, recently. Amanda is a fantastic teacherβ¦made modifications, explained and demonstrated things clearly. She has a lovely warm, soothing, and inviting demeanor. I will definitely be back!

I was a yoga student for years and thought Pilates was just another form of that, but it is so much more! I began private lessons with Amanda Howard (owner of Native Pilates) in June 2019. It's amazing the progress I have made toward greater mobility and how much more endurance I have since we began working together. I have arthritis, which especially affects my knees and hands. All my joints feel better after being at Native Pilates. Amanda has designed personalized exercises I can do in between sessions that help me stay flexible and pain free. Her online classes are also wonderful! My spirits are lifted after a Pilates session with her; I really enjoy the endorphins that are produced afterwards. Do your body a favor and check our Amanda and Native Pilates!

Years after I had my baby I realized I had diastasis recti and I had back issues. Amanda helped educate me about what that was and gently helped me work through these issues. I was amazed at the results! I really love her passion for helping mothers with pre and post natal related issues through Pilates. I am now really enjoying the online classes that she is offering and I highly recommend you a class out!

I love this place! Amanda is a great teacher, loving, encouraging, patient...
She is well-trained and knows her stuff. Private lessons in what I call her torture chamber are amazing too...just sore afterwards (a sign of it working, I think). Options are private lessons, group class, and Mommy and me class. We are lucky to have such a quality studio in our area. Highly recommend.
