Yet… you keep coming back. 🤍

☀️Meet Gina☀️

1. How long have you been a member at Barre-Up and what inspired you to take your first class?

✨ I joined around Oct ’22 shortly after relocating from Memphis to the Raleigh area- I’ve been an avid Pilates + barre student since 2011 and needed a new studio to call home. A simple online search brought me in for my first class and I’ve been hooked since.

2. What’s one class or workout move you never thought you’d enjoy, but now love?

✨ I was skeptical of buti at first (I had taken a class in another city that was labeled as “buti” but I now realize was more choreography/dance focused). I gave it another go at the studio and absolutely loved the vibe and music!

3. What’s a favorite song that would hype you up in every class if you heard it?

✨ Anything Meg thee Stallion 🙂 🔥

4. What‘s something you’ve learned about yourself since joining?

✨That no matter how hectic and stressful life/schedules get, continuing to show up - reserving time for “me” is a non-negotiable. Being the best version of myself gives me the energy and strength I need to show up for my family and community 💪🏻

5. When you’re not taking a class, where might we find you?

✨Out and about with my husband and very active 19 month old son- likely slamming 🌮🌮somewhere in Raleigh’s awesome food scene.

6. What’s a fun fact or hidden talent you’d like to share with our community?

✨Huge foodie if the previous question didn’t reveal that 🙂 When we’re not checking out a new restaurant, I love cooking for my family and am always looking for some new and exciting recipe to experiment with!

7. How has being a part of our studio/community impacted your wellness journey?

✨I joined just before a pivotal journey with pregnancy and postpartum- having such a warm/supportive community of women surrounding me at the studio really encouraged me to keep up the momentum and love my changing body during a very transformative time. Both instructors and fellow students have truly given me a judgement-free, welcoming safe space- I love sweating + catching up with my crew every week 💛

✨ Gina - we have loved watching your transformation from new student in a new city into motherhood and beyond! You juggle a LOT but always, always prioritize making a little time for yourself so you can show up better for your sweet family and the world around you! ☀️🤍

One of our favorite things about this space - we never feel stuck inside a dark studio.
