Barre-barian

I teach a powerful but playful class (with a plethora of options) that empowers all BODIES to embrace their inner strength and move according to sensations that are felt, not according to an ideal shape. My style is fiery & energetic – so I’ll help take you to your edge – in a way that is fluid, intuitive, and feels good in your body. In my class, you can expect body positive affirming language as well as inclusive language and the kind of gentle reassuring encouragement that you expect from a friend. I blend detailed cueing & movement with themed playlists to create a one-of-a-kind dance party that makes you want to shake your hips (or flap your arms) and sing along. I love to sprinkle in an upbeat cardio burst, a creative combo, and incorporate unique ways of utilizing props for a deep burn that you’ll be sure to feel in all the best ways in the days that follow (you’re welcome!). 

Crafting a great playlist is TOTALLY my jam. And while themed playlists might seem kinda quirky (thanks 80s kid and mixed tapes!), they’re sorta my signature when it comes to barre class. The idea of marrying movement with musical aspects magically lights my passion fires and is evident in every class of mine. You will FEEL the difference and notice how much motivation you gain when you move to the beat and feel it in your bones. I get pretty giddy over anatomy so you’ll hear nuggets drop about the body, muscle groups and the why/how over movement. I’ll help you to nurture your body’s needs, help it grow stronger, and ultimately develop a lifestyle that makes self-care a priority. I believe your barre class is the best form of self-care you can offer yourself and I’m here as your barre-tender ready to serve you up a memorable and delightful class.
