The Barre Fitness Alliance's mission is to support, educate, and provide resources for barre fitness professionals and enthusiasts. By empowering our members, we create a community dedicated to elevating the transformative practice of barre.
Welcome to the Barre Fitness Alliance
The Barre Fitness Alliance (BFA) is a global collective of passionate barre instructors, studios, and enthusiasts who believe in the power of barre as a transformative fitness method. We're here to celebrate and elevate barre beyond the stereotypes — because barre isn’t just about how it looks, it’s about how it feels.
We unite those who value strength, longevity, and mindful movement. Whether you teach in a boutique studio or stream classes from your living room, you belong here. Our goal is to make barre more visible, inclusive, and accessible — and to support the people who bring it to life every day.
Through community, advocacy, education, and campaigns like #GotBarre, we're building a movement that shows the world: barre is for every body.
