<p>Hola! Mi nombre es Maria, soy profesora de pilates y barre en un estudio de danza. Para mi el barre es el balance perfecto de fuerza, coordinacion, flexibilidad con femineidad todo al ritmo de la musica. Si algo he aprendido del barre es no subestimar esta disciplina. Mis clases son una combinacion creativa del arte y belleza de la danza con la fuerza de un entrenamiento funcional. Mi mayor objetivo como instructora es que con mi pasion por el ballet y el ejercicio logre motivar asi como contagiar de la misma energia a mis alumn@s, hacer de su cuerpo y la actividad fisica su lugar seguro. Mis clases van mas alla de la tonificacion y acondicionamiento, es nutrir mi espГritu desde la barra y el mat.</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/.
