Barre Groove Instructor

What inspired you to become a fitness instructor?

I loved fitness and lifting weights. My first group fitness class made me want to try instructing and once I had I was hooked!

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

My favorite part of teaching at Barre Groove is the undeniable amazing community we have. Whether it is someone’s first or 100th class the smiles, laughs and eagerness to push themselves while also being sassy and fun is amazing to witness. There is no place like Barre Groove.

How I describe my class Encouraging, inclusive & sassy!

What’s your favorite workout move on the trampoline?

I love doing booty sculpt on the tramp! My favorite bounce move has always been a dancer jack! It’s simple for all levels but effective.

What kind of vibe can we expect in your playlist?

I always put throwbacks mixed with modern day hits! I always want people to know the songs, sing along and have fun. My playlist vibe is “omg haven’t heard this song in forever, I LOVE it!”

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

I love to take naps after class or do an everything shower self care moment!

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

I always reiterate to my clients that it’s not about perfection or comparing yourselves to your neighbor. It’s about moving your body, getting your heart rate up and a good sweat in! While of course HAVING FUN doing so! Another tip being, your body becomes more comfortable on the trampoline the more classes you do so don’t be discouraged your first time around! We all felt uncomfortable the first time bouncing but uncomfortable means you’re out of your comfort zone GROWING!??

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

I was in a famous pizza review with Dave Portnoy!
