Studio Pilates International, an Australian-based reformer Pilates company with over 100 locations worldwide, announced its continued expansion with four new U.S. studios in Nashville, TN, opening this fall.
Located in the Sylvan Park neighborhood, the Nashville studio is owned by Naomi and Jason Priestley, the Canadian-American director, producer and actor known for his acting role as Brandon Walsh on Beverly Hills, 90210, has now ventured into the wellness industry. He and his family relocated to Nashville in 2021 after residing in Los Angeles for two decades.
Naomi Priestley, a certified NASM CPT, Pilates Sports Center instructor, and Mad Dogg trainer, was honored as Racked LA’s Los Angeles Hottest Trainer. She turned to Pilates after battling spondylolisthesis, stenosis, and disk degeneration, which led to severe sciatica. She credits Pilates with transforming her life and saving her mental health and spine.
“We’re excited to bring Studio Pilates to Sylvan Park. I chose the Studio Pilates franchise for its effective workouts and strong brand support. Our goal is to offer a transformative experience and promote wellness in Nashville. With state-of-the-art equipment and dedicated instructors, we’re setting a new standard for Pilates,” said Naomi Priestley.
Studio Pilates International was founded in 2002 by former Olympic swimmer Jade Winter and his wife, a physical therapist, who saw a gap in the group fitness space. Leveraging their extensive backgrounds in professional sports and physical therapy, they developed Studio Pilates International to offer reformer Pilates workouts.
“As we expand Studio Pilates International across the United States, we’re thrilled to bring our proven formula for safe, effective and enjoyable workouts to new places,” said Jade Winter, co-founder and CEO of Studio Pilates International. “Each new studio opening represents our commitment to providing a supportive environment where clients can achieve their fitness goals for both mind and body – as our continued mission is to empower people to live healthier, happier lives!”
Studio Pilates has over 100 studios worldwide, with upcoming locations in Arvada West, CO; Long Branch, NJ; and River Street, CA. Studio Pilates International also spans Australia, New Zealand, China, the U.S., and the UK, with plans to enter Canada later this year.
