It’s Hard To Juggle A Career, Kids And A Husband
An impressive juggling act, no doubt. If you’ve ever tried it, you probably already know that it can be damaging.

Damaging to both family ties and your own health.

But there is a solution. We’ve seen moms pull of the juggling act without breaking a sweat. And no, they’re not special. They’re not superhuman. They’re everyday, normal house moms.

The secret is fitness. More specifically, Barre.

What Is Barre And Why Is It So Amazing?

Barre is, quite simply, is a ballet inspired workout. All in all, it contains elements of pilates, dance, yoga and functional training.

It’s a powerful workout that allows you to target specific muscle groups with different routines. It’s the best way to sculpt and tone your body to perfection.

It’s not high intensity, and therefore weight loss isn’t the ultimate goal. But like any workout, it burns calories and boosts your metabolism.

The most valued outcome of Barre is that it makes you feel good.

You’ll increase your strength and muscle tone while reaping the benefits of regular exercise.

Sounds Great, But I'm Stick At Home With The Kids...

Barre has experienced a healthy boost in popularity over the last few years - because of its effectiveness and, of course, how much fun it is.

This popularity has seen many online solutions pop up. Some of them require an hour or two of study at a physical location. But most don’t.

However, when choosing an Online Barre certification program, one must be careful. There are expensive options and cheap options - and often the quality of the content is no indication of the quality of material.

But you can find out more about why moms recommend IBBFA for Barre certification in our guide.

I Don't Have The Space To Teach From Home

A common objection. We’ve heard it so many times before.

But there is always a solution!

Many studios have room available for rent. An easy way to get started - and you only invest money when you actually have a class.

But to keep things closer to home, there are portable bars. They’re sturdy, mobile and not very expensive. So you can easily turn any room in your house into a Barre studio.

I Can't Teach A Class - I'm Shy

Another one we’ve heard before. Just by browsing our reviews page, you’ll discover a lot of our instructors are, by nature, quite shy.

An easy way to overcome shyness and boost your confidence is with knowledge.

There are so many Barre teacher training programs out there that promise things like “teach Barre in 2 days”. But they don’t understand that teaching a new subject to complete strangers is stressful.

They speed you through an online course, hardly explaining anything. Then they give you a class to follow and slap you with a certificate and voila - you’re a Barre instructor.

It’s important to do your research. To be sure that the course you’re taking will give you the confidence and skill required to teach strangers and tailor each class according to their needs - on the fly if necessary.

That’s what helps you get and keep clients. That’s what helps you build an actual career and - maybe someday - a studio of your own.

And prevents you from paying for more than one certification, when you all you need is one good one.

So Anyone Can Teach Barre? Where Do I Start?

Yes! Anyone can teach Barre - with the right certification course.

IBBFA offers one of the best online certification courses. Others have literally emailed us just to tell us that they tried other online programs and that nothing compared.

One lady even went so far as to call a particular well-known online Barre program a bad word. We won’t repeat that here. But they wasted her money, so we certainly sympathise with her.

Starting at a quicker, cheaper institution might be the most obvious place to start. And we welcome those interested in Barre to try that.

But from experience, no other online certification programs quite compare to what we’ve done at IBBFA.

So starting here makes the most sense - at least from what we’ve seen.

You’ll want to either start with our essentials program, or get the discounted Gold package (contains essentials and level 1).
