STUDIO UPDATE!

What a fun ride July has been!  We had a very successful Grand Opening weekend with over 300 guests walking through our doors. 
 
Our guests enjoyed socializing and mingling, enjoying snacks and refreshments and many took advantage of our amazing henna tattoo artist and chair massages along with 3-days of labarre classes in every discipline (labarre, Yoga, and drumming).
 
Our Minneapolis connection: “Krissy KT” rocked the house once again introducing our newest drumming themed class to new tunes along with our new drumming format incorporating more barre into our drumming.  In case you missed it, we sold out of all available drumming classes over the 3-day period and we drummed “on the barre!” This labarre creation is just one of many innovations we hope to bring to the Bay Area as we are currently the only studio doing this.
 
In addition to rocking the house with our drumming classes we also kicked off our drumming certification program with great success and had several future instructors spend 2 days working, learning, sweating and perfecting their craft.

That leads me to another announcement - we are hiring instructors for barre, drumming and Yoga to join the already amazing equipe of instructors who lead every day.  If you would like to audition, we welcome you to contact [email protected] and let us know!
 
Our next barre certification program is on Saturday, August 19th & Sunday, August 20th.  If you have interest in expanding your barre practice or are curious of what it takes to become a certified barre instructor this is a great place to start.  You can reserve a spot by going to labarrestudios.com or to www.barreintensity.com to register for upcoming barre certification programs.

August brings us one of the industry’s most prolific instructors, Jinger Parson.  Jinger, a labarre master trainer, has over 30 years of dance and fitness experience and she can not wait to lead her newly designed labarre class “barre fusion”. 
 
Barre fusion will be offered over the weekend of August 19th & 20th.  Space is limited so sign up and reserve your spot for our newest class.

Finally I want to end our update with a big THANK YOU to all of our guests and members who continue to spread the word about labarre studios. If not for the love and support of all of you, our business simply wouldn’t be possible. You are the reason for labarre and we are looking for your feedback to make our guests experience the best in the Bay.  Please email us critiques, thoughts, etc. to [email protected] as we are very active on and will respond to any and all thoughts.
 
Happy Days!
