Amara Wynwood is already flourishing with life – and now, its ground-floor retail experience is taking shape, starting with movement. The newly opened mixed-use multifamily community by PGIM Real Estate and Fifield Companies has signed BODY Hot Pilates as its first retail tenant. Known for its signature blend of strength, sweat and style, the studio will anchor the property’s street-level retail promenade, adding daily rhythm, energy and connection to Wynwood’s creative corridor.
Located at 45 NE 27th Street, Amara Wynwood brings a new expression of inspired living to the heart of Miami’s artistic hub, featuring 210 studio, one- and two-bedroom residences, wellness-centric amenities, and 11,604 square feet of ground-floor retail. BODY Hot Pilates will occupy approximately 1,831 square feet fronting NE 27th Street, with buildout beginning immediately and an anticipated opening in Spring 2026. This marks the brand’s third South Florida location following its studios in Coral Gables and Aventura. Metro 1 Commercial QOZB LLC represented Amara Wynwood in the transaction.
“We are building a retail program that goes beyond traditional conveniences to create a lifestyle ecosystem,” said Lindsey Senn, Chief Development Officer at Fifield Companies in a statement. “BODY Hot Pilates sets the tone for an environment that enhances the resident experience, strengthens our sense of community and reinforces Amara’s position among Miami’s next generation of mixed-use destinations.”
Integrating its signature method of high-intensity Pilates in a heated environment, the studio offers more than just a workout. BODY Hot Pilates delivers a full sensory experience defined by movement, music and motivation — combining cardio, strength training and mindfulness in a rhythm-driven format designed to stimulate both physical and mental transformation. Each class is guided by expert instructors and set to lively playlists in a sleek, spa-like atmosphere, creating a dynamic community built around empowerment and well-being.
“Expanding into Amara marks a natural progression for the BODY brand,” said Lyndsey Meade, Founder of BODY. “Wynwood attracts individuals who prioritize intentional living and high-performance wellness, and Amara offers direct access to that audience. This studio will offer a setting where people can strengthen both body and mindset through the transformative impact of hot Pilates.”
Encompassing 27,486 square feet of resort-style amenities, Amara Wynwood is purposefully designed to nurture balance in every form. Residents enjoy a dedicated wellness suite with red-light therapy, a sauna, cold plunge and state-of-the-art fitness center, complemented by expansive pool decks, co-working spaces and social lounges that encourage both productivity and relaxation. The addition of BODY Hot Pilates builds upon this foundation, introducing a sought-after fitness destination that amplifies Amara’s holistic lifestyle offering and invites the broader Wynwood community to engage in its culture of movement and renewal.
Tucked within a quieter enclave of Wynwood, Amara is located just steps away from world-renowned murals, open-air galleries, independent boutiques and destination dining. With a 96 Walk Score, dedicated bike lanes and nearby Metrobus, Metrorail and Brightline stations, getting around is effortless. I-95, I-195 and SR 112 provide quick access to Downtown, the Design District, Midtown, Miami Beach and Miami International Airport — ensuring residents stay connected to everything the city has to offer.
With leasing and property management by Bozzuto, Amara Wynwood delivers a hospitality-first approach that matches the building’s emphasis on care and ingenuity. For residential leasing, visit www.amarawynwood.com. Retail leasing is led by Juan Andres Nava of Metro 1 Commercial.
