Studio Goddess

I had so much fun hanging out with these acro girls! There is such a refreshing sense of community at this studio. I definitely suggest checking it out!

Had a blast learning the Southern Swagger! Booked Studio Goddess for a bachelorette party and learned some great moves!

Love this place! I have been doing pole fitness for about 4 years now and was so excited to find Studio Goddess when I moved to Nashville. The studio is huge! It is the largest pole studio I have ever seen. It’s clean and inviting, not to mention beautiful inside. SG offers classes for any level, and the instructors are accommodating to each student’s needs and goals. I have not attended a class here that I didn’t LOVE and I recommend it to everyone!

I had very high hopes for this place. I took advantage of the $ 79 new student monthly special. Upon walking into my first class, the aerial silks class, the instructor ask I wait outside. Oookay. Not very welcoming, but I was here for the class anyway. I’ll remain with an open mind. The class itself did not have enough equipment for all the students so we had to take turns. Inconvenient. Days later I had to cancel a class, but then later found out I was still charged because I canceled late. Then, a couple days later they called me and cancelled class two hours prior to it starting stating that the minimum number of people had not enrolled. Shouldn’t THEY be paying me for this then? I’ll be taking my business to Chrome, where I hear here nothing but great things.

I was VERY disappointed with our experience here. We went for a bachelorette party and even from our arrival everything was disorganized and unprofessional. At one point we were told that they were short-​staffed, but at no point during our couple of hours there were we ever offered a discount or told how long we would end up having to wait. The cupcakes we received were melted and broken apart and our bride did not receive the ‘special gift’ that I paid for that was supposed to be part of the package. Overall, I was very dissatisfied with our time here and will advise anyone I know not to waste their money.

Went to Studio Goddess today for a bachelorette party, really fun time! The instructor knows her stuff and the bride enjoyed it. You don’t feel out of place. Recommend.

Nashville is the epicenter of the universe for bachelorette parties, so it’s not a shocker that there are several pole dancing fitness studios in town. I must say my first time grinding my booty on a chrome pole in what I call a failed attempt at looking sexy was incredibly fun.
Kristen was our bubbly, encouraging instructor for our private pole party of seven ladies. She was very good at describing how to move our bodies so that we had a general idea of how one day we could fully master the move. She added a personal touch by popping a bottle of champagne to toast to the beautiful bride-​to-​be, and bestowed us with our ‘stripper’ names for the day.
Pole fitness itself is very fun. Swinging around and sliding down a pole?! It’s like being 10 again! Only, this fun is, well… a little more ‘adult’. My boyfriend of course asked for video of the shenanigans. But no… no. No. No. Sugar Deville (my stripper name for the day) is not ready for stage or film. Not just yet.
We’ve already looked into pole fitness in our hometown. Great workout that is definitely a change of pace from the treadmill and yoga studio. Well worth the $ 35 for the hour of self deprecation!
P. S. They are in a brand new space and the sign on the outside of building is Crave something or another. :) Goddess is in there. Just not totally obvious from the street.

Took 8 girls for a bachelorette party and we had a great time! Location is a little far from the central downtown area if you’re an out-​of-​towner without a car, but a cab can easily get you there. Our instructor was a really talented dancer and very nice. We did the chair routine which was perfect since we had quite a bit to drink the night before :) I cant imagine trying to get on the pole!
Definitely recommend it! Great workout!

I’ve been working out with the ladies at Studio Goddess for almost a year now — and man… I LOVE IT! Every time I go it is a great workout physically and a wonderful support system of strong women there to have fun. Nicole is a great motivator and really cares about making sure you have fun and learn the proper technique. After having worked out at another studio (in a different city), I realized how important good technique really is… makes everything else so much easier! I am going to be so sad when I move out of Nashville and can’t come to classes as regularly :((but no worries, I’ll be back when I’m in town!)

Studio Goddess is SO fun and such a great workout!
A few girlfriends and I booked a private session together and we had the owner instruct us. She is soooo incredibly fun and it flew by in no time. Which for me, is such a bonus! I love to workout and not really notice it as a workout!
One of the best things about this place is that it doesn’t matter if you are someone who has never even touched a pole standing next to a girl who does it every night. Everyone kinda goes at their own pace but learns the same routine in the process!
The next morning… my arms, abs, and legs all hurt — but in a good way! I definitely recommend looking into this — they run specials pretty often so I would check it out!

I have taken 3 classes here so far and I love it. I have some minimal pole experience and dance experience but the instructors are very helpful and technique-​oriented. Nicole, the owner, is very personable and hands-​on, I enjoy learning with her. She was very helpful and patient with me and I learned so much by taking 3 classes. I definitely recommend taking Mix of Trix and Level 1, if you have taken classes at another studio, just to brush up the basics and they run great specials to get in. The Android app is extremely helpful. You schedule the classes and it automatically syncs the class and address to your calender. Overall, I have had a wonderful experience so far. I definitely plan to take more classes here.

I love how the star rating system says «Woohoo! As good as it gets!» because that’s freaking accurate. Studio Goddess is by far the best and most complete workout a woman can get. The actual pole work and warm ups strengthen your enire body and help you stay toned or lose weight. Plus, the excitement of the ladies around you is infectious. It’s incredibly rewarding to finally figure out a move and then hear everyone clap because they are happy for you too.
The instructors are all genuinely thrilled to be teaching there and it shows through in their classes. I’ve never had a bad class or a bad instructor.
I honestly can’t believe I hadn’t already done a review. I love Studio Goddess and am thoroughly looking forward to making it in to my next class.

Fun place to go if you are a laid back kind of person looking for something different and interesting. Nicole is very relaxed and playful. She is dedicated to what she does. I have brought 2 friends there so far because it’s such a fun way to work out. The time just flies by. Do not be intimidated by all of the poles, it’s easy to work out around them if you aren’t taking a pole class. And if you are taking a pole class, be aware that everyone cleans the poles neurotically, so be prepared to spray with alcohol (kills all those germs) and wipe after every move and before and after the whole class.

Huge fan of this place.
I joined a more than a year ago (in July it will be two years!) after looking for a place to go after work that was less of a gym and more of a place that I could be myself and could meet people who liked to try interesting things (like pole-​dance fitness). BUT, I was still looking for those «gym» results — which is exactly what I was able to find at this studio. Personally, I like work-​outs that distract you from the working out part. Literally, in class, I’m so busy trying new things that I don’t even think about how tired I am until the end of class because I’m having so much fun.
More importantly though, I’ve met so many amazing and inspiring women. The instructors have always been so encouraging and are also committed to the safety of the students.
Studio Goddess runs plenty of deals that fit any kind of budget. I «lived» off of a Groupon and LivingSocial for a few months and then decided I loved it so much that I became a member.
I look forward to my time at Studio Goddess every week! Highly recommend.

Birthday weekend for a friend (02/09/2013).she wanted to do something different, even risqué and maybe a little raunchy. so we decided go pole dancing. AND WE HAD A BLAST!
The studio is nestled somewhat in the Belmont area, not too hard too find. Upon first glance you see a typical storefront which causes you to wonder about the size of the place. Just as we thought it was not that big inside, but the colors on the walls were so inviting and cheerful bringing out our inner stripper, lol, ok. our inner dancer, OK well psuedo-​dancers!
There was 11 of us but only 7 poles, not very good because I don’t like sharing any type of pole (pun intended. lol). So this in my opinion was a negative. The owner of the business taught the class and she is awesome! She was pleasant, bubbly but not overboard (that’s annoying) and full of energy. we were all sweating within the first 10 minutes of the class. can we say PLUS!!!
The dance routine we learned was great and the pole moves were an added bonus.(BTW, much respect for pole dancers, that pole takes no prisoners!!) We enjoyed ourselves so much that we are signing up for the Zumba class etc. This class is great exercise and we LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!
Kudos to Studio Goddess and the owner!

I’m into some kinky workout classes so when I heard about the living social offer for Studio Goddess, I jumped at the opportunity to get my pole-​on.
Five flirty fitness classes was the deal. The website is decent. Make sure that you check out the testimony video. It is both informative and hilarious. Apparently there is an entire subculture of pole dancers that I was unaware of prior to getting to know Studio Goddess. The class schedule has variety and times that are flexible with my busy life. I enjoy that classes are at 6 or 6:30 instead of something I have to strategize my life around because of traffic in the Vandy/​Hillsboro/​Belmont/​12^th So. areas. I signed up for Zumba, Burlesque Flirty Dancing, and Shake Your Abs online and received email confirmation reminders. Always a plus.
I showed up at Zumba and there isn’t much of a waiting area. There are catalogs for purchasing your own pole for home, RV or a hitch trailer. The studio itself is located near the corner of 12^th and Wedgewood in the plaza behind the liquor store. The pole class was just finishing so I sat down on this white vinyl sofa (so fitting for the environment) and baked in the sun shining through the sheer curtains while the thighs of women squeaked down the poles in the classroom. Oh the ambiance. The class space has privacy otherwise it would just be a fishbowl of pole dancing amateurs serving the Belmont/​12^th So community. This problem with air circulation continued throughout the Zumba class. I considered it to be just a «hot» Zumba class.
An aerobic class requiring lots of movement such as Zumba is not really fitting for a space that is divided by poles from ceiling to the floor, which I refused to touch with any part of my body. I did feel like I achieved a calorie-​blasting workout. The Burlesque striptease fitness class that I took started off the same way, however, the owner led this class. She was very interested in our opinions and taught us worldly skills that can be applied to our own lives. This class, too, was also a great workout. They, of course, do bachelorette parties and other group functions. And I think they really try to make it as classy as they can.

I have been coming to Studio Goddess for almost a year now, and let me just say, first and foremost, that I love this place with all my heart.
Studio Goddess has something for everyone who has grown tired of the boring old gym routine. From a dance-​fueled ab workout class to advanced pole classes and even a burlesque dance class, a girl can find any workout she wants, and feel sexy while doing it! The classes are very relaxed, you feel really good about yourself while you’re here, nobody judges you. Prices are really affordable, and memberships even more so, making coming here a breeze; a real treat considering most pole dance studios can be very pricey. There are also often Groupons and Living Social deals available often for those who are simply curious and want to test the waters before committing to a membership.
I cannot say enough good things about the instructors! The owner has amazing energy and is always peppy and cheerful, really excited about what she has to teach the class on any given day, her mood is infectious — even if you come in after a long hard day of work, she’ll give you the boost you need to get through a fun and flirty workout.
In conclusion, if you’re bored of your routine, or simply want to try something new and exciting, this is your place!
