The Bennies of Barre Classes

If you’re looking for a fun, effective way to boost your wellness, my Barre classes might just become your new favorite. I blend ballet-inspired moves with strength training and flexibility in a low-impact workout that’s gentle on your body and soul. Over on SPBTV, our holistic living network, I design and teach these classes as a professional dancer and dance teacher. That’s what makes my Barre classes different—years of dance expertise go into crafting moves that are precise, safe, and a little extra special. Want to know why I love teaching them? Let’s chat about the benefits!

1. Builds Strength Without Strain

In my classes, we use small, controlled movements—like pulses and holds—to work your core, legs, and arms. It’s a gentle way to build strength without stressing your joints—you’ll walk away feeling energized, not wiped out.

2. Improves Flexibility and Balance

Those ballet stretches and poses I guide you through? They lengthen your muscles and boost your balance. After a while, you’ll notice everyday activities—like reaching up or standing steady—feels easier.

3. Calms the Mind

My Barre sessions are a mental reset too. I’ll have you focus on breath and rhythm, pulling you into the moment. Stress fades, your mood lifts—it’s a simple way to find some calm.

4. Works for All Levels

You don’t need to be a dancer to join my classes—they’re for everyone. Whether you’re new or seasoned, I’ll meet you where you are and help you grow at your own pace. No pressure, just progress.

5. Fosters Connection

When you join me in person, there’s this great sense of togetherness. We laugh through the tough bits, cheer each other on—it’s more than a workout; it’s a good time.

6. Online Convenience

With my online classes, you can jump in from anywhere—no travel, just a mat, a barre (or sturdy chair) and your schedule. You can even replay them whenever it works for you—perfect for busy days or when you’re on the go.

7. Enhances Posture

I focus on alignment in my classes—lifting your chest, engaging your core. It trains you to stand taller and with more confidence. Trust me, you’ll feel the difference in how you move.

8. Boosts Energy

My Barre classes won’t drain you—they lift you up. The mix of movement and mindfulness gives you a natural energy boost without that burned-out feeling.
