Teaching at True Barre is the highlight of my week! The staff and the clients are so uplifting and encouraging, it is such a special community!
I have been practicing yoga for the past 5 years and got my certification around 2 years ago.
The more I practiced I felt myself growing so much physically and mentally. I had a strong desire to help others feel the same empowerment and to be an encouraging part of their journey. I found that I thrived teaching more fitness style classes like yoga sculpt and was eager to teach more classes similar to this.
I started taking Pilates and barre classes online and instantly fell in love with the way I felt during and after class. I am so excited to share my knowledge and give others the feeling!
Instructor
I took my first barre class 8 years ago after having twins & fell in love with it! I’ve found barre to be the perfect accompaniment to my running routine & low impact on my joints. My goal is to share my passion of barre with people of all ages while strengthening and toning muscles in the process. So excited to be part of the True Barre community!!

Coming from a competitive dance background, barre has always been something that I have enjoyed doing! The high energy, upbeat music, and the supportive environment is what really drew me to True Barre. After taking all the different styles of classes I realized that there is something for everyone to love here at the studio and that’s when I knew I wanted to help people find what they love too! While taking Pilates and barre classes I strive to transform myself not only physically and mentally, but to be an encouraging guide to help others feel the best they can mentally and physically.

I have been dancing and moving my body for as long as I can remember! I am very passionate about always evolving and becoming the best version of myself, so in college I decided to step out of my comfort zone and begin my Pilates journey. I love being apart of a team like True Barre because it allows me to grow mentally and physically while being surrounded by the most uplifting group of women! I have a deep love for teaching and pride myself and my positive energy and educating other women how to elevate their wellbeing one class at a time! True Barre provides me a safe space and outlet to excel in my craft. Girls who barre together stay together!

Coming from a dance and gymnastics background, I found Pilates after recovering from a knee injury. I became a Pilates instructor in 2019 because I wanted to create a space where there were options for everyone, no matter where they were in their fitness journey as well as share my passion for Pilates. I started teaching yoga and barre as well, with the same intention of bringing options to everyone and help others find joy in fitness. I strive to help others build strength and feel good in their body mentally and physically. True Barre is such an upbeat, fun, and supportive community and I’m excited to be a part of it!

"This past summer I moved to Lawrence and starting my first year as a first-grade teacher at Woodlawn Elementary. The more time I’ve spent in Lawrence, the more I’ve fallen in love with the community and wanted to expand my involvement. What better way to do that than by joining True Barre?! I’m thrilled to be part of something that not only benefits my health, but also provides a positive environment filled with amazing people from our community!"
My blood runs crimson and blue… I am a legacy! My Dad, Pete, graduated from KU in 1997. I am currently a junior at the University of Kansas. We are proud Jayhawks and so lucky to have the opportunity to bring True Barre to Lawrence! ROCK CHALK!
It all started with our founders and owners in California, Lynda and Sami, the powerhouse mother-daughter duo! Their dream was to have a studio that gave it all and more! Taylor began working as a Barre Babe at True Barre in California when she was a sophomore in High School. She quickly realized she wanted to instruct and the rest is (almost) history!
We are a family! Not just our owners, instructors, and Barre Babes… our amazing clients make our family whole! Everyone at True Barre is supportive of one another. True Barre is your place to get the best, well-rounded, full-body workouts, have fun, ask questions, sweat and shine, challenge yourself inside and out, and leave feeling inspired and confident!
