She loves the 'shrink wrap' effect of the barre methodology and its emphasis on posture. "I've grown a quarter of an inch!" Go-to positions include diamond thigh, side plank, and all those elongating stretches in between set-ups. She is certified by International Barre & Ballet Fitness Association (IBBFA) and works full-time as an advertising copywriter. `</span><br></p>

The Certified Barre Instructor (CBI) is issued by IBBFA — the International Ballet Barre Fitness Association, the professional credentialing authority for barre fitness instruction since 2008. CBI candidates must pass a 60-question written examination drawn from a 300-question bank and complete a live practical evaluation with an IBBFA Master Instructor proctor. The CBI curriculum covers anatomy and physiology, barre technique fundamentals, class design and sequencing, cueing and communication, safety protocols, and scope-of-practice guidelines. Credentials are publicly listed in the IBBFA registry and can be verified independently at ibbfa.org/verify/.
