Growing up in upstate New York, Sarah was not an athletic person. She tried tennis and track in high school, but was really the person in gym class trying to get away with the least amount of effort. She discovered barre classes when looking for a new, low-impact workout. With no dance background, barre felt a little overwhelming at first with all the things to remember, but she stuck with it and quickly fell in love. 

When Sarah moved to Richmond last year, she found City Barre and was instantly addicted to the motivating classes, friendly community, and beautiful space. Sarah loves the mental challenge of small, intentional movement and feels stronger with each class.
