A look inside Barre & Be

Where we go from moving just to get by to moving on purpose.

If you’ve been moving just to get by, disconnected from your body and your essence—Barre & Be is your return home.

Barre & Be is a holistic wellness brand rooted in barre inspired fitness.

Barre & Be is more than fitness—it’s a barre inspired practice that sculpts your body, restores your nervous system, and reawkens you to your soul purpose.

MOVE. BREATHE. SIMPLY BE

From Performance to Presence

Barre & Be was born out of my own journey of pursuing wholeness. As a former Track & Field athlete, I knew what it meant to push, achieve, and perform—often to be accepted and seize opportunities. But behind the achievements, I was disconnected from myself, lacked life skills, and as result when difficulties arose, I felt stuck. My body carried the weight of life’s inevitable circumstances, and my spirit felt far from home.

Why Barre & Be

What I longed for was a practice that did more than shape my body. I needed something that could soften my heart, strengthen my mind, and guide me inward—so I could finally show up as my true self, outwardly.

Through barre-inspired movement, breath work, and soul work, I found a new rhythm: one rooted in effective movement, nervous system healing, and restoration.

Barre & Be is the sacred space I created to share that rhythm with women like you—women who feel stuck in transition (whether life, career, relationships) and ready to come back home to themselves and move forward in their soul purpose.

A Sustainable Practice to keep you fit Mind, Body, Spirit

Here, movement is not just about sculpting your body. It’s about restoring balance, reclaiming your breath, and rising into the woman you were always meant to be.

Welcome home. You belong here.

With love,

Evelyn Maria Dia
