Studio Barre

Born & Raised: Born in the big apple, NYC, and raised a Jersey girl!

Favorite Barre Move: seated, flying, and standing pretzel on profile in that order

Favorite Food: There are too many amazing foods to choose from, I will basically eat anything!

Fitness Background: Rebecca developed a love for fitness in college where she obsessed over spin classes, HIIT, and Yoga — back when barre didn’t exist!  She then finally discovered barre fitness after graduating and was immediately hooked. She has worked in the fitness industry for over 10 years and has been a certified Yoga Instructor since 2016, and a Barre instructor since 2017.  She’s taught over 1,500 classes at StudioBarre ATX, and it never gets old!

Outside of Barre: Rebecca is an actress, singer, & model and a spokesperson for eCommerce company Everlasting Comfort.  Pay attention the next time you are watching TV, and you just might catch her in a commercial.  Rebecca loves cooking, hiking, being in the sun in any way possible, traveling, and cold plunging with her husband and their black German Shepherd – Kima. (Kima isn’t a big fan of cold plunging, but she loves the cooking, sun, and hiking part!)

Hi y’all! I’m Marielle, an Austin transplant with Jersey roots! I headed south with my Texas native fiance and our Choco lab named Trigger about 3 years ago and never looked back!  I spend my Texan time keeping up with greater ATX real estate (plug for @marielle_buyandsell) drinking Mexican martinis, raising bucking bulls, and teaching barre of course! I love running, lifting weights, and the good burn +friendships from SBATX!  Getting to know everyone in class has become a personal hobby of mine so please wave and introduce yourself when you drop in!  Whether it’s fighting through a killer barre workshop or cheersing at Happy Hour I am happy to be building this great tucking tribe!

I’ve been with this studio since the day it opened & have been so grateful for the community & the workout. I have worked in many different parts of the fitness industry but barre has by far been my favorite. The benefits I’ve experienced have truly been life-changing from helping with injuries & through pregnancy to providing me with 90% of my wedding party—this really is the best little barre in town!

Outside of the studio, I have a smokin’ hot husband & a beautiful daughter that I love to hang out with. We spend a lot of time outside & with our local family. I love me some Jesus, am an enneagram 7 & believe pineapples belong on pizza.

Born & Raised: A proud Virginian who now loves Texas with all her ❤️

Favorite Barre Move: Seated Pretzel and Abs 2

Favorite Food: Champagne is its own food group, yes?

Kate grew up very active in competitive horseback riding and as a distance runner. After many injuries from both sports, Kate discovered barre when she was seeking an effective, low-impact workout and was immediately hooked! After teaching at Studio Barre Alexandria for four years, Kate and her husband moved to ATX. It was always a pipe dream to own her own studio, so when the opportunity arose to purchase SBATX she jumped on the chance of a lifetime in December 2021.

When Kate is not at the barre, you can usually find her on the back of a horse (she has been riding for over 20 years!). She also fancies herself a (very) amateur chef, wine lover and loves to travel the world with her extremely patient husband, Andy. Her children include two very spoiled yet charming pups, Eloise and Madeleine.

Although new to studio ownership, Kate has a very discerning eye for detail and aesthetics with an extensive background in both marketing and retail. For five years Kate worked in event and product marketing for organizations like The Advisory Board and The Society for Human Resources Management. In addition, Kate also has extensive retail and merchandising experience working in stores like J.Crew and with brands like Smythe, Ecru, Autumn Cashmere and Sanctuary. Owning SBATX is so far her favorite of all these careers, and she loves being able to combine all of her talents into one sweet little studio.
