This isn’t just another certification. it’s a different way of teaching.

BodyBarre® is the original cardio-based, HIIT-inspired barre method, designed to help you lead classes that are dynamic, intentional, and never repetitive. You’ll learn how to move, cue, and create an experience your clients will feel from the moment they walk in.

This is the kind of class people talk about, the one that feels different, keeps them challenged, and brings them back again and again.

Your Questions, answered.

  • We didn’t just put videos online and call it a training. This program was built to mirror our in-person trainings as closely as possible, so you’re learning the same way we actually teach. We walk you through how to break down series, cue effectively, layer choreography, and build unique classes that flow from start to finish.

    You’ll learn proper form and alignment, how to structure a full BodyBarre® class, how to modify for different levels, and how to create an experience that feels fun and intentional for your clients.

    The difference is you can move through our training on your own schedule, as opposed to our in-person, two-day trainings, without losing the depth or quality of the experience.

    It’s designed to help you feel confident stepping into the room, connecting with your clients, and leading a class people will want to come back to again and again.

  • It really depends on you. Some trainees move through the entire program in a focused weekend, while others take their time over the full 12 weeks to really absorb and practice everything.

    Most people fall somewhere in between, fitting it into their schedule as they go. If you need a little extra time, extensions are available so you can finish feeling confident, not rushed.

  • The cost of training is $399. If you are training with a BodyBarre® Evolve studio, that price may be different.

    We understand that everyone’s situation is different, so we do offer payment plans.

    View our Payment Plan Options or reach out for a custom solution that fits your budget!

  • Once you’re registered, you’ll receive access to everything you need to confidently step into teaching, including:


    • The full BodyBarre® teacher training manual with illustrated guides and choreography
    • Step-by-step training videos that walk you through each section and break down what we’ve learned thus far
    • Manual-based classes you can practice along with
    • A test-out tutorial section so you know exactly what’s expected
    • The BodyBarre class skeleton, so you’re never guessing what comes next and can keep classes fresh, every time you teach
    • Music guidance and recommendations to help you set the tone
    • Access to our full on-demand workout library for continued practice and inspiration

    Everything is designed to help you not just learn the method, but actually teach it with confidence.

  • Not at all. Whether you’re brand new to teaching or already in the fitness space, this training meets you where you are. You just need to be 18 or older.

    Dancers often do especially well thanks to their body awareness, musicality, and ability to pick up choreography, but it’s absolutely not required. We teach you everything step by step.

    And if you need extra support along the way, we’re here for you. We work closely with our trainees through text, additional tutorial videos, and even scheduled FaceTime calls when needed, so you always feel guided and supported throughout the process.

  • As soon as you’re certified, you’re able to start teaching.

    Because this training is designed to be practical and hands-on, you’re not just learning concepts, you’re actually practicing how to teach as you go. Many trainees feel confident leading classes immediately after completing their certification.

    Some even begin practicing with friends, family, or small groups before they finish, so by the time they’re certified, they’re more than ready to step into a real class setting.

  • Yes. Your certification allows you to teach BodyBarre classes in studios, gyms, or your own space, depending on your goals. We are a certification program, not a franchise, which means you have the flexibility to take what you’ve learned and use it in a way that fits your lifestyle and career.

    We’ve trained instructors all over the world who are teaching in a variety of settings, from boutique studios to private clients to their own growing businesses.

    Some branded studios (like Pure Barre and other franchise-based concepts) do require their own in-house training programs - that’s just how they operate. But if you’re looking for a method that’s more dynamic, cardio-driven, HIIT-inspired, and actually keeps people coming back, you’re in the right place.

    Our method is intentional, organized, inspires creativity in you, the instructor and let’s be honest…people are a little obsessed.

  • No. There are no additional required costs to complete your training or become certified.

    We do offer an optional instructor access for $10/month, which gives you continued access to all training materials, our full on-demand workout library for ongoing practice and inspiration, and the ability to list your studio(s) or teaching locations on our “Find a Class in Your Area” page. You can also request updated certifications as needed.

    It’s a great way to stay connected, keep your content fresh, and continue growing after certification, but it’s completely optional.

  • To complete your certification, you’ll submit a video or videos for evaluation. This can be a full class or a few shorter clips, whatever you prefer.

    You don’t need a live class or clients to teach to. Many trainees simply teach to their phone from home.

    We’ll guide you through exactly what to submit inside the training, and how to submit them, so you’ll know exactly how to prepare before you test out.

  • We’re not here to fail you. Our goal is to help you become a confident, capable instructor.

    If your evaluation doesn’t meet the requirements on the first submission, you’ll receive clear, specific feedback on what to improve, and you’ll have the opportunity to resubmit within your training period. We’ll work with you along the way to make sure you understand exactly what’s needed and feel supported through the process.

    If you need a little more time to refine things, extensions are available so you can finish feeling confident, not rushed.

    This is about growth, not perfection, and we’re here to help you get there.

  • Easily! Visit this link to have continued access to all training materials and the on-demand library. Extensions are billed monthly until you cancel.
