Meet Our Instructors
Each barre babe in our community of instructors is here to teach you, inspire you and lead the way through each workout. Get to know them!
Suzanne
Suzanne is our studio owner & fearless leader - and she can teach it all: all kinds of Barre, FiitFire and Strength + Stretch. When teaching, she loves finding the perfect beat & watching the faces of our Barre babes as they fight to get stronger & better every day. She's currently earning her Masters in juggling - parenting four kids, owning a studio, and staying sane is no easy task!
April
April fell in love with The Barre in 2017, and she's now been teaching for over a year. She's a high-energy powerhouse who loves to see her clients grow strong, both at the barre and in life. A southern gal through and through, she's a mom to 2 wonderfully crazy kids Lillie and Patton and a wife to an amazing and supportive husband Greg. Catch April teaching Barre, Barre Express, Tabata Barre, and more!
Bethany
Bethany has been taking classes at The Barre since the day we opened, and in 2019, she decided to take the leap and become an instructor! You'll find her teaching Barre and Barre Express. When she's not in the studio, she's enjoying Franklin (she's one of the few who were born and raised here!) with her husband and two children.
Candace
If you’ve been in our studio at all, you’ve met Candace. She teaches all Barre formats, REFIT, FiitFire, and UGI! If you’re taking class with her, speak up - she loves hearing clients holler while pushing through a difficult series! She’s lived in Nashville her entire life, but loves heading to new places with her husband and son! Working out is her happy place, but she’s also secretly a roller skating champ. Yes, really.
Jen
Jen teaches all kinds of Barre in the studio. She was a dance major in college and used to be a choreographer, and when she sees a room full of Barre babes moving in sync to the music, she gets chills every time. She loves inspiring women to be the best version of themselves in body, mind, & spirit. Jen’s passions are Barre and travel - in fact, she loves travel so much that she became a travel agent! She’s also a wife and mama to three awesome boys.
Jessica
Jessica is the studio manager here at The Barre - she keeps all the beautiful faces on this page in line! (Just kidding - they’re a dream to work with.) When she’s not behind the front desk, you’ll probably find her somewhere on the road - she’s a writer and speaker with a serious love for travel. Her favorite pose is book in one hand, coffee in the other. A Virginia native, Jessica has called Nashville home for three years, and she falls more in love with it all the time. Ask her about her favorite local spots next time you see her!
Jess T.
Jess teaches various Barre formats at the studio. Her favorite thing is watching clients dig deep and get into the workout! Screaming, shouting, and cheering are all accepted in her classes. She loves any beat that can make her dance - in fact, she was a competitive cheerleader all the way through college! Jess and her husband have lived in Nashville for eleven years, and have three beautiful kids.
Melanie S.
Melanie teaches all of our Barre methods - and Fiitfire! She loves to see clients push themselves, especially when they keep great form while they’re at it! Melanie moved to Nashville temporarily. Then she met her husband, and they never left. Three kids and 18 years later, Franklin is definitely home. Mel might be a responsible mama now, but before kids, she was a mega thrill seeker. Ask her about her skydiving experience next time you see her in the studio!
Rachel
Rachel teaches Barre, Bootcamp, Tabata, and FiitFire in our studio. She loves feedback from clients, good or bad! During one especially tough class, she had a client yell, “you suck!” - and it made her week. She loves pushing our Barre babes to be their best. Rachel’s a Nashville native, and she married her childhood boyfriend - now they have two beautiful kids, too! Their family loves to travel - in fact, Rachel works as a travel agent when she’s not teaching Barre. You might not recognize her voice now, but as a child, she did voiceovers and even got to work with the voice of The Little Mermaid!
Stephanie
Stephanie is certified in all things barre and buti yoga. She's a powerhouse of light and energy, both in and out of the studio! She and her husband along with their 5 daughters own a popular doughnut shop here in town and word has spread so fast they now have 5 locations! Stephanie is most often seen in the early morning "wake and shake" classes and you can bet your bottom dollar that you'll be sweatin' to some gangsta rap.
Tiffany G.
Tiffany teaches all kinds of Barre in our studio! She loves to create playlists that’ll create a good beat while her teaching makes clients feel the burn. She hails from Detroit, but is learning to be a southern girl. She’s slowly earning her black belt in Taekwondo, along with her husband and two daughters - he’s an instructor! If you ever want to get on Tiffany’s good side, give her some kind of sweet potato dish. She loves them!
