History
Established in 2018.
Barre District is a lifestyle concept that combines elements of ballet dance conditioning, pilates and yoga into a full body workout. Based off of techniques from the original Lotte Berk method, a Barre District class will tone and elongate muscles, increase flexibility, and strengthen you both physically and mentally. Our mission is to connect within our communities to make the barre workout the way we change lives, and to promote a healthier lifestyle through strength, flexibility and relationships with one another.
All Barre District Lifestyle studios are individually owned, community-based, and designed to support and promote other small businesses. We seek to create valuable relationships amongst one another and partner with other companies that work to improve the lives of others. Our goal is to provide a space for people to come together to do good, feel good, and create better lifestyle habits.
Meet the Business Owner: Allison G.
Allison is a perfect example that following your dreams is possible and that you are never too old to make a change - especially when it entails changing your career to do something you are passionate about. Having spent over 25 years in Marketing, sitting at a desk working at a computer a majority of the time in roles where the work-life balance was a challenge, Allison was ready for a change. Allison has always been passionate about fitness and a balanced, healthy lifestyle. She has dabbled in a number of different fitness activities and ran her first half marathon at the age of 40. But, once she tried her first Barre class she was hooked. Allison started with Barre District as a Barre Bestie taking classes. She fell in love with the Barre District community and with the barre workout. Allison wanted to take what she was learning and teach others and moved into instructing. Taking it one more step she made Barre her career and transitioned into opening up the Menomonee Falls studio.
