The Guild Pilates + was founded with a singular goal in mind - making Knoxville a healthier place to live, work and thrive. What is Pilates? Pilates, created by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, is an extraordinarily safe and effective form of exercise that enhances mind, body and spirit through a series of movement sequences on unique apparatus - Reformer, Cadillac, Wunda Chair to name a few - or on a Mat.
Owner/Founder Lisa Blake was raised in Knoxville but has spent many years in the major markets of NYC and Los Angeles as a Dancer/Actress, Personal Trainer, Pilates Instructor and business owner. In 2013, she returned to Knoxville with her growing family and her dream was born.

Kimberly is a great instructor. As a studio, The Guild is very attentive to the clients, their needs and preferences. Even with COVID - they were able to do Zoom classes which have been very helpful during such a stressful time. This is not a drill instructor type setting but a setting of learning, growing, and becoming your on strong self. Thanks everyone for all of your efforts!

Kimberly Beets is an amazing instructor! I’ve only taken bellydance classes under her, but she is an incredible educator. She is knowledgeable and has been a part of the bellydance community for quite sometime. I plan on taking Pilates classes with her very soon as I’m trying the expand my workouts from just dance, yoga, and spin cycling.
