big changes abound!!

After serious consideration, we are changing the course of the business.  We appreciate all of the support we have received to date, but after a great deal of thought, my husband, Rob, and I have decided to open up la-dive-bar instead of labarre studios.  We will be serving cheap beer and whiskey out of dixie cups.
​
​April Fools! (We think you saw that one from a mile a way...)

Spring has sprung as the sun shines bright this first day of April.

It has been a month since our last studio update, and I will continue to update you monthly, as we grow as a studio and move closer towards opening labarre on The Alameda.  We continue to be hopeful for a Spring 2017 opening!
 
As we continue to offer classes daily at our rental studio we continue to grow with new faces and introductions from our current guests.  We have reached the milestone of having 300 unique visitors come through our doors and take a class!  Our new schedule begins April 3rd, so be sure to check labarrestudios.com and MindBody Online for changes and new class times.  We strongly encourage you to continue to use MindBody to secure your reservation for our classes.
 
We want to congratulate our newest “certified barre instructors” to our studio.  Roniemarie Apruebo, Sara Rosa, and Amber Bilak have all passed their barre certification! It is important to us that our instructors possess the total package: teaching experience, top barre training and the versatility of holding certifications in multiple disciplines. 
 
We wanted to thank those of you that have activated your Founders Memberships and are taking full advantage of the $99/monthly unlimited classes.  If you know that you will be taking10 classes a month, it is more cost effective to activate your Founders Membership.
 
We also have had several Founding Members cash in on their labarre birthday offer, taking advantage of the 30% discount for one merchandise item in our labarre store on their special day.
 
We will be offering two back-to-back weekends of specialty classes!  Staring out with Yoga: Mind-Body-Sprit on both Saturday, April 22nd, and Sunday, April 23rd.
Drumming classes return Friday, April 28th-30th, watch our website and social media channels to “snare” one of the spots.  We greatly appreciate and welcome your feedback on these specialty classes. 
 
We literally “rocked out” with master trainer, Krissy KT.  A couple weekends ago, on March 18th & 19th, and saw the underground studios packed, selling out two drumming classes and running out of space, drum sticks, and mats.  We had nearly sixty guests attend our two days of drumming!  We hear you rock stars loud and clear, and we will be adding drumming once a month to our permanent labarre schedule. 
 
I am happy to say that we are currently 70% sold out of our Founders Memberships. We will continue to collect payment information from every guest that has completed our Founders Membership agreement. You can enter your credit card information through MindBody Online and save it in your profile or at your next visit complete our credit card form to assist us in this process. We simply want to assure you have your Founders Membership reservation complete.
 
We look forward to seeing you in class and appreciate your loyalty and excitement to build a truly extraordinary boutique fitness experience. You are the reason we have created labarre and you are also the daily motivation that fuels us to be San Jose's premier fitness boutique.
 
Happy Days!  ~LA
