Ever since Cody and Brandi Rhodes departed from AEW, the WWE Universe has anticipated The American Nightmare’s wife joining him onscreen. However, Brandi Rhodes has played a very minimal role in Cody Rhodes’ TV presentation. In fact, it seems like the former Eden Stiles is hanging up the wrestling boots for good. Ever since leaving wrestling in 2022, Brandi Rhodes’ yoga and pilates business has taken off. Here’s what you need to know about Brandi’s studio in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
Why Did Brandi Rhodes Open A Yoga Studio?
Brandi Rhodes retired from active in-ring competition in 2023, with her last match being in January 2022. She defeated KiLynn King during an episode of AEW Dark: Elevation.
During this time, Brandi was between pregnancies. Liberty’s mother decided to focus her time on growing her family. As the Runnels household welcomed Leilani, Brandi used her extra time to focus on her yoga journey.
Before grabbing a microphone in WWE as Eden Stiles, Brandi Reed was a competitive figure skater. The future Brandi Runnels skated for 17 years, which added wear and tear to her body.
Brandi Rhodes would injure her clavicle while wrestling for Stardom in 2018. The years that followed were equally tough on her body, juggling pregnancies and in-ring bumps. When she finally stepped away from wrestling, Brandi was able to really explore the healing powers of yoga. With the stability of living at home (and not on the road), the mother of two found the time to get certified as a yoga and pilates instructor.
Brandi Rhodes’ Naked Mind Yoga + Pilates Childcare
It’s hard for mothers to carve out time for themselves. That’s why Brandi Rhodes’ studio offers childcare during many classes.
As Leilani and Liberty’s mom explained to Essence,
“People deserve to have an hour. We (Brandi and Cody) have both been there before.”
Yoga is a family thing for the Runnels household. You can see Cody doing yoga in Unreal on Netflix. WWE Fanatics has also promoted Cody Rhodes yoga events in collaboration with Brandi Rhodes’ yoga studio.
Where Is Brandi Rhodes’ Yoga Studio?
Naked Mind Yoga and Pilates is located at 10930 Crabapple Rd., Suite 102 in Roswell, Georgia. This location is about 30 minutes from Atlanta.
They have numerous yoga and pilates classes daily. The studio offers beginner classes, reformer sessions, workshops, and more. Most customers get a class package or membership. However, Naked Mind Yoga does allow drop-ins. Drop-in prices range from $20-$30, depending on the class.
