RISE Fitness + Wellness | Pilates Studio — Local services in Columbia

I started taking Pilates at Rise in January 2023. I have never been a fan of group fitness classes, but was very intrigued by Pilates since it was viral on social media.

Rise completely changed my view on group fitness, so much so that I purchased a class membership after my first class!

It was very important to me to find a studio that was diverse, inclusive and welcoming and Rise checked all those boxes for me. As a beginner, I felt so welcomed and the instructors really take time to show you the studio and get you familiar with the equipment before beginning.

Rise is honestly the best Pilates studio. Not just in Columbia, but in general! I have been going consistently for 5 days a week for the past year and it’s the one thing I never get tired of. I always look forward to going to class and seeing all the instructors. KVB and all the instructors are like family and really do care about your form and doing things correctly. You can’t go wrong with any of the classes or instructors; they all have their own flare and way of doing things. KVB brings the energy, laughs, and good vibes. Darcy’s classes always leave my legs feeling like jello. Anna’s classes are great if you want to try really cool and new moves. Kaitlen has the best playlists and has a super calm presence. And Michaela also has great playlists and the funniest stories. Can’t forget about Kedra, Caroline, and Juliana who are the sweetest people and will remember you by name....

Rise Fitness + Wellness is one of the best workout places I have ever been to. I was always intimidated by Pilates and never thought it was my place. When I moved to Columbia 5 months ago I decided to take the chance and when I walked through the doors of Rise they made me feel like I'd been a client forever. They're incredibly attentive during workouts even when they're full and make sure that everyone feels welcome and comfortable during the classes. There is a wide variety of class types and times throughout the week which makes it easy to get in once a day if you want to. I always say when I tell people about Rise that not only did I find a great place to get in a kick butt workout, but I found my friends and...
