The BEATS Story

BEATS Barre Studio was built as a response to wanting something more out of fitness.

Founder Meredith Trout wasn’t looking to start a fitness brand. She was trying to solve a problem she was living inside of.

As a mom of three boys, Meredith knew what pregnancy, recovery, and real life do to a woman’s body. She trained hard. She tried studios everywhere. And she kept seeing the same outcome—workouts that promised results but left women exhausted, injured, and frustrated.

Bad programming.
Trend-driven movement.
Intensity over intelligence.
Women were being told to push harder when what they needed was to move smarter.

So Meredith started experimenting. Not in a studio. Not with mirrors or spotlights.
In her basement in North Carolina.

She stripped fitness down to the essentials—strength without strain, rhythm without chaos, results without injury. Every movement had a reason. Every class had a purpose. BEATS was growing rapidly in NC because women were seeing results from their workouts for the first time in their lives. Trust and community were being built.  Then life changed.

Her family moved to Columbia, South Carolina for her husband’s job. New city. No built-in community. So Meredith did what she’d already proven she could do—she started again.

This time, in her garage.

Word spread quickly. Women showed up. Cars lined the street. The results spoke louder than the noise—until the noise became literal. A neighbor complained. The city was called. More than once.

That pressure forced a decision.

Meredith opened the first BEATS Barre Studio in October, 2023. The next chapter in the BEATS story is being written now.

BEATS Barre is hands down the most fun and effective workout I’ve ever experienced! The upbeat atmosphere and energy make every class something to look forward to and the instructors are absolutely fantastic. The workouts are challenging yet enjoyable — a perfect blend of fitness and fun. I’ve noticed real results and always leave feeling stronger and more energized. I highly recommend BEATS for anyone looking for a workout that actually makes you excited to show up!

Ever since I tried a BEATS class, it’s become one of my favorite workouts. Not only have I seen great results, but it’s also so much fun. Meredith Trout, the owner, along with the other instructors and staff, create a friendly environment. I’ve seen Meredith personally welcome first-timers and genuinely take feedback to improve the BEATS experience. Since starting, I’ve felt more toned, healthier, and energized. The music is amazing and keeps me motivated through class, and I love how it works through all muscle groups. The supportive community and Meredith’s leadership make it even more enjoyable and keep me coming back!

I recently tried Beats Barre Studio for the first time, and it was an amazing experience! The energy in the studio is contagious—it's such a fun, upbeat environment where you really feel motivated to push yourself. The instructors are incredibly supportive and know how to keep the class challenging while still making it enjoyable. The combination of barre, strength, and cardio set to great music made the workout fly by, and I could really feel it working my whole body.The studio itself is clean, modern, and has a great vibe. The class felt both intense and rewarding, and I left with a huge sense of accomplishment. I’m already looking forward to coming back and trying more classes. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun, high-energy workout that delivers results!

I’ve been attending Beats Barre for over two years now, and I can confidently say it’s the best workout in Columbia! The energy is contagious, and the workouts are always challenging but fun. The instructors are top-notch—knowledgeable, motivating, and so encouraging. They make every class feel fresh, by changing the routine every 3 weeks. What I love most about Beats is how it targets every single muscle in your body, even those hidden ones you didn’t know you had. The focus on core and booty is unmatched, and the results speak for themselves. I’ve seen incredible changes in strength, tone, and flexibility since I started. The atmosphere is always welcoming, and the community is so supportive. No matter your fitness level, you’ll feel right at home...Can’t recommend it enough.
