Love this cute studio. So aesthetic and clean, got amenities like deodorants, hair ties etc for clients. My fav instructor has to be Meg, she is so energetic and her workouts are so spicy. Location is convenient and their parking is also really great, got plenty of parking at the back

I absolutely love it here! The studio has such a welcoming, calm atmosphere, and all of the instructors are so knowledgeable and kind. I recently completed my Mat Teacher Training here and learned so much. Everyone was very thorough, helpful, and always willing to answer questions. Taking classes here has also been amazing, the instructors give great corrections and cues that really help you improve. Zephanie especially has been so supportive throughout my teacher training journey and always took the time to help me whenever I needed it. I’m so grateful for my experience here!

Response from the owner · a month ago

Hi Genesie, This means so much to us!! We absolutely loved having you with us throughout your Mat Teacher Training, and it makes us so happy to hear how supported, welcomed, and encouraged you felt along the way. Knowing that you’re taking so much knowledge and confidence with you from the training is exactly what we hope for every person who walks through our doors to learn with us. And we couldn’t be more grateful for your kind words about Zephanie! She puts so much heart into teaching and training, and we know how much she genuinely cares about helping each person feel confident and supported. We love that you’ve also noticed the attention to corrections and cueing in our regular classes, it’s such an important part of what we believe Pilates should be. We’re so grateful The Body Collective has become a part of your Pilates journey and that you’ve trusted us with such a special step in becoming an instructor. We’re so excited to watch you continue to grow and can’t wait to see where this journey takes you! ♡

I did the mat teacher training with Zephanie along with a few other instructors, and they were so kind and helpful. The whole experience was amazing. Although it was a lot to digest, it was super thorough. We went through the entire handbook, and it didn't feel rushed. Zeph took her time answering any questions we had, demoing each move along with emphasis on the correct form. We took time to practice cueing on each other and got to know one another. On the last day, we all got to teach a quick mock class that had one arm, one leg, and one ab workout. Everyone was super welcoming and encouraging. We also have to take 10 mat classes with The Body Collective which is super doable and allows us to shadow the instructors. I love it because it allows us to see different teaching styles and techniques so that we can form our own. When I decide to take other Pilates certifications, I would 100% do it here again!

Hi Christine, Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a sweet review! It truly means so much to us. We absolutely loved having you in our Mat Teacher Training and hearing how much you enjoyed the experience. Zeph puts so much time, intention, and care into making sure our trainees really understand not just the movements, but the why behind them, so we’re so happy that came through during your training. We also love that you mentioned the time spent practicing cueing, teaching each other, and learning from one another. That hands-on practice and the opportunity to take classes with our instructors are such an important part of the program because we want you to leave feeling prepared to develop your own teaching style and confidence. And getting to watch that growth happen throughout the 3 days is one of our favorite parts of teacher training! We’re so grateful you trusted The Body Collective to be part of the beginning of your teaching journey, and hearing that you’d choose us again for future certifications honestly means the world. We can’t wait to see where Pilates takes you and would absolutely love to have you back for your next certification!

The mat teacher training was absolutely perfect! Everything I could’ve hoped it was. Left with so much knowledge about form and was able to work with the best instructors! Zephanie was the absolute best and definitely wanna go back for the reformer training! ;) highly recommend this program!

Response from the owner · a month ago

Hi Zoe, Ahh thank you so much for this sweet review! We absolutely loved having you with us for Mat Teacher Training and are so happy to hear it was everything you hoped it would be! It means so much knowing you left feeling like you gained real knowledge around form and movement, while also feeling supported by our instructors throughout the weekend. And we couldn’t agree more about Zephanie! She is such an incredible teacher and trainer, and we’re so lucky to have her as part of our team. We would LOVE to have you back for Reformer Training when the time comes! :) Thank you again for trusting us with such an important part of your Pilates journey and for recommending our program! 🫶🏻

I recently completed the mat teacher training here and I loved my experience! The studio is beautiful and the instructors were so welcoming and knowledgeable. I learned so much in 3 days such as hand on corrections, form, anatomy, and movements that I will be taking with me throughout my pilates journey. I definitely recommend this studio to anyone wanting to become a mat instructor!

Response from the owner · a month ago

Hi Camryn, Thank you so much for sharing this! We absolutely loved having you with us for Mat Teacher Training and are so happy to hear how much you enjoyed the experience. It makes us so happy knowing you walked away feeling more confident and excited to continue your Pilates journey! There is so much that goes into those 3 days, and we love that you took away hands-on corrections, form, anatomy, and movement that you can actually carry with you into your teaching. Watching people learn, grow, and find their confidence as future instructors is one of our favorite parts of offering teacher training. We’re so grateful you chose to train with us and can’t wait to see you take everything you learned into your own teaching! ♡

I just completed the mat certification in person training at TBC last weekend & loved every minute of it! I’ve been doing pilates for years and still learned so much, met such a great group of girls, & pushed myself out of my comfort zone. I highly recommend the cert program and the classes here! 💗

Hi Grace, We absolutely loved having you in our Mat Certification! ♡ It means so much to hear that you loved every minute of the experience and were able to take away so much, especially after already having years of Pilates experience. We truly believe there is always more to learn, and watching you dive deeper into your practice, challenge yourself, and step outside of your comfort zone was so special! We’re also so happy you found such a great group of girls to learn and grow alongside. Thank you for trusting TBC to be part of your journey and for sharing such a kind review! We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see where this new chapter takes you. We’ll always be cheering you on!

I recently completed my mat pilates teacher training here at The Body Collective and can say it was one of the most informative, smooth, fun processes ever! From the lectures throughout the weekend, to being able to have hands on training with the class as a whole, the whole process was so informative and helpful. You receive anatomy books, and manuals with so much information to really make you the best instructor you can be. Tiffany and Zephanie are the sweetest souls ever, and really make you feel supported as an in-training instructor. 10/10 would recommend every one interested to take this course through this studio!! Coming from the IE, the commute was worth every second!!

Response from the owner · 2 months ago

Hi Kayla, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us!! It means so much to hear that your Mat Pilates Teacher Training experience was informative, supportive, and fun from start to finish. We put so much care into creating a training that combines the education and theory with hands-on experience, so we’re glad to hear you found both aspects valuable! We’re especially happy to hear you felt supported by Tiffany and Zephanie throughout the process. They truly care about helping each trainee feel confident and prepared as they step into their role as an instructor. And coming all the way from the IE makes this review even more special! We’re so grateful you trusted The Body Collective with such an important part of your Pilates journey, and we’re excited to see where your teaching takes you. Congratulations on completing your training, and thank you for the 10/10 recommendation!
