Barre & Soul, LLC
About
Barre & Soul in Melrose is one of the Barre & Soul studios, which have locations in Cambridge, Melrose, Portsmouth and Providence. Its signature Barre & Soul Method blends modern ballet conditioning, Pilates, yoga and low-impact cardio with inspirational, soulful instruction. The schedule also includes a Vinyasa yoga flow in a warmed room that builds to a peak pose, high-energy Super Sculpt classes with hand weights and cardio bursts in a heated studio, Mat Pilates Fusion with props, and all-levels reformer Pilates.
Founder Andrea Isabelle Lucas went from teen single mother, former stripper and domestic violence survivor to building the studios and Barre & Soul Academy, an online barre certification. She is a keynote speaker, coach and Women’s Studies graduate, and the studios put women’s empowerment, inclusion and support for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities at the center of their culture. Members, nicknamed “barre and soulmates,” are encouraged to lift one another up.
