What is Bella?

Bella is a group exercise studio and is based on engaging women, men and children to participate in group exercise, offering a safe, convenient and fun exercise atmosphere, and to provide the necessary tools to live a healthy lifestyle.

At Bella we can help you to customize a fitness program balanced around specific goals for exercise, both mental and physical. All of our certified instructors will assist you every step of the way to provide practical fitness knowledge, and to encourage you with your fitness goals. If a group environment is not your ideal location to take a class for the first time, feel free to request a private session – additional fee applies.

Our class schedule at Bella is based on a monthly calendar, and demand for certain classes or class times. The current calendar will be posted on this site on the schedule and hours page or hard copies will be available at Nourish/Bella. Feel free to email us with class suggestions, days and times.

Bella is located at the Kids Creek Market Place inside Nourish at 1545 South Division, Suite 116 in Traverse City.
