Q&A with Emilee
Barre Groove Instructor

What inspired you to become a fitness instructor?

I loved the community that BG provides, loved being a member, and loved all of the instructors. With the encouragement of Steph and some of the other instructors, I decided I wanted to be involved with BG even more and wanted to step outside of my comfort zone!

What’s your favorite part of teaching at Barre Groove?

My favorite part of teaching is seeing all of our clients’ faces after an energetic workout. Seeing returning clients and seeing how excited everyone is for a BG class is unlike anything I’ve experienced.

How would you describe your classes in three words?

Exciting, rewarding, & fun!

What’s your favorite workout move on the trampoline?

I love heel digs!

What kind of vibe can we expect in your playlist?

My vibe is honestly a little all over the place. I love keeping up with new music as well as including some old throwbacks. I love playing pitbull, one direction, and J Lo.

What’s your favorite way to unwind after a class?

After class, I love eating a good meal and being a couch potato.

What’s your “can’t miss” piece of advice for someone new to Barre Groove?

If someone is new, I think it’s important to remember that everyone was new at one point! It can sometimes be intimidating to be in a room full of experienced bouncers, but we all had a day one and as long as you keep moving throughout class, that’s all that matters.

What’s one fun fact about you that might surprise people?

I’m a huge football fan, go dolphins!!

If you could describe how Barre Groove makes you feel in one word, what would it be?

Happy 🙂

What’s your go-to hype song when you need a boost?

Turn All the Lights On by T-Pain
