Sara Peelle, co-owner of Xtend Barre Beaverton and Xtend Barre Scripps Poway, is a devoted mother of three with a passion for promoting an active and healthy lifestyle. The Oregon-born native graduated from the University of Oregon with her B.S. in General Science and went on to earn a doctorate in Physical Therapy from Loma Linda University. She loves teaching Xtend Barre and loves the workout. Since starting Xtend Barre, Sara qualified for the Boston marathon and was able to reach her fastest time in 7 marathons. She credits this to Xtend Barre’s muscle elongating, fat burning, and muscle toning capabilities, which are not inherent in other barre workouts.
I started teaching in 2015 and also managed the studio. In 2017 I became an owner and still love teaching to the hardest working, most loyal clients out there. My favorite barre move is chair. Chair can be done facing the barre, side to the barre, back to barre, in turn out or parallel. Chair allows for long sculpting holds and focus on form. Add in a few jumps and it’s a cardio game changer. Fun fact – I grew up in a farming community in the Midwest.
Originally from upstate New York, Kristy’s extreme passion for Health and Fitness originated at a very young age. She began dancing at age 3, and has over 15 years of dance experience compiled from Jazz, Tap, Ballet and Lyrical. Both Kristy and her parents were thrilled when she discovered Xtend Barre, so she could put their money to good use influencing others and sharing her love for dance. Kristy’s fun-loving personality and killer classes make them a joy to take, and she may even make you laugh with ridiculous thoughts as you burn through her workout!
Kyla found Xtend Barre four years ago after having her first son. Like many women, Kyla was searching for a fun, effective workout that could fit her busy schedule and didn’t break the bank. After just one class, Kyla was hooked; and two months later, she had her pre-baby body back. As the first self-proclaimed “Barre-liever,” Kyla advocates that Xtend Barre is a workout everyone can enjoy and it shows in her classes. Whether you’ve danced professionally or never set foot in a studio, Kyla caters her workout to ensure each client’s experience is a good one. Kyla’s goal: “make everyone a Barre-liever.”
Amber is a San Diego native. She began dancing at a young age and instantly fell in love! She is grateful for the discipline and commitment she learned through dance and attributes it to her success in many aspects of life. Ultimately it was through dance that she found her passion for fitness. Amber went on to study at San Diego State University. She graduated in 2012 earning her Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology and a Minor in Dance. After graduating from college Amber began looking for a fun way to incorporate her two passions of fitness and dance into her life. She found the perfect combination in barre classes. She was instantly hooked to this challenging, yet fun workout that incorporates both cardio and strength training all in one hour. Her favorite thing about Xtend Barre is the strong community of women she has the privilege to teach and work out with. Amber is thrilled to meet you at the barre!
Stephanie is originally from Seattle where she grew up playing sports and living a healthy lifestyle. She found barre 8 years ago after she had her first child. After seeing instant results and having fun while doing it, she became certified soon after. Years later, she added power yoga and yoga sculpt to her training, as well as TRX and circuit classes. She loves putting thought and intention into her classes to create change and burn while inspiring her students. All while putting a smile on their faces!
Lauren has been working at Xtend Barre since 2018. After years of being behind the desk, she got certified as an instructor in 2021! Lauren’s favorite move is fold over on the mat with a heavy weight for an intense booty workout. A fun fact about Lauren is that she’s been to 5 different countries!
Sarah was a long-time client at Xtend Barre, who became a certified instructor in 2021! Her favorite barre move is a toss up between lunges in relevé and back-to-barre chair. A fun fact about Sarah is that she never went to her senior prom. That being said, she married her swing dance partner so all is well that ends well!
