City Lifestyle spoke with KINRGY and Stride Fitness, two studios that are redefining fitness in Nashville.
CL: What makes your studio stand out among the offerings available in the fitness sphere?
KINRGY: Our mission at KINRGY is to create and support a judgment-free world that empowers each person to connect back to their true nature and uniquely express their authentic self. This practice is for all ages, body types, and ability levels. All are welcome here. Our in-person studios redefine the traditional boutique fitness experience. Unlike typical fitness studios, our spaces are designed to transcend the ordinary, creating an environment where every aspect contributes to an immersive, multi-sensory experience. We strive to cultivate a sense of community, fostering connections among individuals pursuing their fitness and wellness goals in an environment that seamlessly blends innovation with comfort.
STRIDE FITNESS: With so many boutique fitness studios in Nashville it has been super fun thinking of creative ways to stand out from the crowd. From a class-format point of view, what makes us stand out the most is our walking format. Our coaches simultaneously coach to running and walking formats. This is a unique feature that allows the fitness levels to be super broad and inclusive. Whether you are coming off an injury, are just starting your fitness journey, training for a marathon or simply older than the average studio member, you can get a great and safe workout without feeling the pressure that you are not good enough to be in a group fitness class.
CL: Tell our readers about your class types.
KINRGY: KINRGY Belle Meade provides your daily dose of self-care that includes dance cardio, fitness, mindful movement, and breathwork through four primary class modalities.
KINRGY X, our signature method empowers your expression by immersing you into a full-body journey of dance, meditation, breathwork, and strength training.
KINRGY Carve invigorates your muscles with sections of targeted exercises and full-body sculpting, designed to build strength and embrace movement.
KINRGY Rhythm moves your body and ignites your energy with easy-to-follow dance cardio that boosts endurance and honors your authenticity.
KINRGY Connect recalibrates your system with a collection of harmonizing practices of breathwork, yoga, meditation, sound, and mindful movement.
STRIDE FITNESS: We have a variety of different class formats that offer both cardio and strength training. Our two most popular formats are the Stride Classic, which is 55 minutes of treadmill efforts and our Stride Combo, which is 55 minutes of half strength work and half treadmill efforts. We also offer 75 minute Ultra classes on the weekends which gives the opportunity to get lots of extra miles or just a longer calorie burn!
CL: What's the vibe at each of your studios?
KINRGY: The Belle Meade studio is complete with a beautiful stone water fountain, live greenery wall, and soft earth tones throughout to create a relaxing immersive experience that incorporates music, lighting, scent, movement, and breathwork. This helps increase mental clarity, physical strength, emotional wellness, energetic health or just simply could be a place to play and express. P.S. It’s science-backed! Connection and community are a big part of the magic of KINRGY, which our members love.
STRIDE FITNESS: The vibe of our studio is a tight knit community and an inclusive environment for those who potentially want to join the West End fam. Stride is not just a place to workout, it is a community of people who are there to encourage one another, have fun together and be friends outside of the studio walls!
