Remy Matulewic, Barre Teacher

She/Her/Hers

What brought you to yoga/barre?
A family friend brought me to my first barre class over 6 years ago, and I loved it. I love how challenging yet accessible the workout can be.

What’s your yoga/barre background and what are you most passionate about teaching?
Although I have been taking barre classes for a while, I made the jump to become a barre instructor over a year ago, and it was the best decision ever. I find it extremely rewarding to move and connect with everyone who takes my classes. I find joy in creating playlists that motivate me, and creating classes that are challenging but make people smile.

What would your students be surprised to know about you?
I speak French! I've spent a year working and living in France, and I am now in graduate school for French.
