Testimonials- What We Mean to You + What You Mean to Me

To celebrate our Two Year Anniversary, I asked you to write what Barre + Beyond means to you. I am completely touched and want to share what you mean to me. Balancing life; caring for two young children, a husband with a busy career, a household in itself, on top of owning a small business, is tough. I feel like I am pulled in multiple directions.  There are days in the morning that I am tired and would rather “rest” and lounge. But somehow that is not in my nature and I get up and go.  Once kids are off, I head to studio, turn on the lights and music. I get pumped.  But most importantly, it’s ALL OF YOU, who get me going. YOU all make a difference and make me realize why I work so hard. I love all that my family brings to me, but I know I need this studio and I need you, just as you need me.  You keep me sane and you make me whole.  I love all the beautiful things you have said and I just want to share how much you all mean to me as well. Thank you for your continued support. I look forward to our growth in this next year. Here are some of the kind words from a few of you:

“What I love about barre beyond …. The challenges. Whether it is a difficult session during class myself wanting to eat healthier and be healthier …. It is a snowball effect!”

“First time @ Barre class was amazing ! Very different just regular exercising and workout @ the gym. The shaking & burning felt great! I look forward to coming again”

“Everyone is so personable & pushes you to do your best.”

“Before there was Orlee’s “Barre and Beyond”, I was already actively involved in sports (running, bicycling), along with individual and class work-outs at a local gym. So when a friend suggested I try this unique style of exercise, I questioned how it could be better than what I already did. It only took one or two classes to show me how effective this barre method was. Fast forward to the present. I am stronger than ever before, my running has improved immeasurably, and when I take a Barre class, I leave the studio happy, fulfilled, and ready to tackle the day. For those who are unsure I strongly recommend taking 2 or 3 classes. You will not regret it.”

“I love how kind your staff is – very helpful … I feel like I can do this!”

“Everyone is so great! Love the atmosphere! Big influence on my life!”

“I love that Barre + Beyond truly cares about everyone and their individual goals! It is not only a fantastic workout but also an amazing experience!”

“Love Barre + Beyond! All of the instructors are incredible knowledgeable, motivating and upbeat all while keeping class moving while you tuck, tone, and burn away to the music. I’ve been to other barre studios/chains and the one-on-one attention and uplifting atmosphere is second to none.”

“A great workout with great instructors! My daughter loves the munchkin room too! I love to go as often as I can!”

“I heard about Barre and Beyond in a magazine. However it took me a year to get up the nerve to go to a class since I was out of shape, a grandma of four and had some physical limitations with my knees. I was sure everyone would be young and thin and fit there and wasn’t sure I’d fit in or be able to do it. Finally I came to some workshops and started taking classes two days a week and the classes have made me stronger and I was warmly welcomed. Orlee has helped me adapt the class to accommodate my knees. I love the help Orlee has given me. Everyone regardless of age and physical abilities should try it you won’t regret it.”

 

To all my “Barre Beauties” Thank you! And to all those reading this but yet have made Barre + Beyond your home, please come join us…once a week, twice, or every day. We would love to have you!

THANK YOU!

LOVE YOU ALL,

Share Barre Love…at the Barre + Beyond,

Orlee
