meet sarah! sarah’s roots are in charlottesville, virginia, but she knew from the second she caught a glimpse of the bridgers that this was her home. sarah attended james madison university, getting her bachelor’s in communication sciences and disorders and then made the trek west. when she is not at the barre she works in real estate at fay ranches. you will find her paddle boarding, camping, travelling, biking around town on her cruiser, at a concert or sitting on a patio downtown sipping a yummy drink. sarah is a beach girl at heart, will eat any kind of cheese you put in front of her and loves a good jumpsuit.

sweating has always been a priority for sarah, from running to hiking to gyming it. sarah found barre on the east coast and has been hooked ever since. she can’t get enough of the different muscles that barre helps her strengthen (boooootyyyy), and the fact that it never gets easier, you just get stronger! sarah loves the way studio barre makes clients feel happy, strong, alive and confident when they leave. no matter what kind of day they are having, the hour-long class brings a smile to everyone’s faces, and that could not make sarah happier! her best advice is to smile even during “the shake”.. she promises it helps!

meet kelsey! kelsey was born in dayton ohio and moved to bozeman at a young age (lucky for us!).

barre{tender} by day and bar tender by night. kelsey has a passion for all things food and drink. she has been working in the restaurant industry for over 10 years and that’s where she met her husband jon. they enjoy fishing, hiking and traveling with their adorable dog waylon.

kelsey first fell in love with barre when she took her first class from the one and only rachel granger back in 2012. fitness has always been a huge part of kelsey’s life and when she discovered the barre technique she wanted to share it with everyone.

my advice to anyone and everyone who wants to try barre

“your first class will be challenging in the best ways possible. you may feel lost, but we all felt the same way. don’t give up and know that you will gain confidence and strength with each class you take.”

studio barre not only gives me a great workout but has also introduced me to the most amazing/ba women in bozeman!

meet devin! she is a diverse woman, working full time at a local design and marketing agency, armstrong marketing solutions, running her own boudoir photography business – devin helen boudoir – and teaching here at studio barre.

devin grew up all over the world, from rhode island to japan, seattle, italy & everywhere in between, she has been traveling from a very young age and can’t really shake the urge to discover every inch of the planet. in 2016, she married the love of her life and best friend. when devin’s not busy working she’s probably in the mountains trail running alongside her husband and their bear-cub puppy thor.

physical fitness has always been a huge part of devin’s life. it’s her time to decompress and clear her thoughts.

“when i found studio barre, it was a workout like i had never tried before, and i was hooked! barre has not only helped me become stronger in all of my other workouts, but i have met so many incredible and inspiring women, and that’s what makes it all worth it. i love being a part of the studio barre team because of how much it empowers women to feel strong, not only externally but internally as well.

“i love giving a killer workout at studio barre! if you carved out an hour of your time to work out your body, then you bet i am going to deliver a badass workout to make that hour worth your time!”

meet alexa! oncology pharmacist by day, barre{tender} by morning + night. lex has always been a montana gal. she grew up in great falls, attended both undergrad and pharmacy school at the university of montana, and landed in beautiful bozeman in 2014.

as a competitive gymnast for many years and high school/collegiate dancer, lex has always enjoyed being active and staying fit. so when her long-time friend, rachel, asked her if she wanted to be a barre{tender}, her answer was “of course.” she immediately fell in love with the studio barre atmosphere, high intensity workouts, and community of inspiring, strong, and beautiful clients. watching people’s lives and bodies transform has been one of the most rewarding and heart-warming experiences of her life.

lex’s advice…

for clients new and old: “never compare yourself to anyone. each class, focus on reaching your own personal goals and you will find that you are stronger than you think!”

outside of the pharmacy and barre worlds, you can catch lex hiking, spending time with family and friends, and exploring montana with her fiancé, kjel, and doggies, ro and trout.

Meet Rachel. A montana girl born and raised, rachel graduated with a degree in business marketing from montana state university where she fell in love with bozeman. her first love however was dancing, and with time, it led her to the barre technique. after teaching classes at a local barre studio for 3 years, rachel became the co-founder/owner of bash, a wedding/event design studio and boutique.

her passion for fitness and the barre technique inspired her to open her own studio and she hasn’t looked back. after the happy, welcoming, and positive energy she felt after her first class at studio barre, she knew it was the perfect fit. the high energy, fast paced, fun (and challenging) class put her right back in her element.

next to barre, she’s a tequila or bust type of gal, and may actually be in love with bacon.
