Welcome.
It’s time to Rise and Renew.
Your renaissance awaits.
Through mindful movement, smart strength-building, and soulful transformation tools, I help women reconnect with their most potent selves — gently, safely, and powerfully.
The Foundation That Frees You.
My Mindful Barre Method is about building a foundation so solid it frees you. Every sequence is carefully designed to remind your body exactly what it needs: deep core strength, balance, agility, flexibility, and posture that supports you everywhere you go. As your muscles learn, your mind can finally rest. The more your body knows, the more space there is to breathe, release, and be.
We Return To The Foundation So You Can Rise Higher.
My Mindful Barre Method is a curated sequence, layered with intention. Each class builds upon the last, teaching your body the language of strength and balance. As your foundation deepens, your mind finds more space to breathe, your posture elevates, and your confidence grows — not because the class changes, but because you do.
As Your Deep Core Is Reawakened, We May Move Into Smart Strength.
As with My Mindful Barre Method, Smart Strength is designed for women navigating perimenopause and beyond, focusing on supporting your body’s natural transformation process rather than battling it. We lift with intention, move with mindfulness, and build the strength that carries us into our next—and I believe— most vibrant chapter. Here, strength training becomes an act of self-trust and a pathway to renewal.
Together, these offerings form part of Rise & Renew — a holistic ecosystem designed to rebuild strength, restore energy, and guide you forward to your most potent self.
“Who knew the deep core was so important?! I have strength, balance, agility and better posture than I’ve had in years.”
“I feel so refreshed and grounded after class, I can’t fathom not having [Mindful Barre] during my work week!”
“It’s all about the stretching for me. I’m so much more flexible now.”
“The combination of low lighting, classical music, and focused movements helps me feel so rejuvenated.”
“Mindful Barre with Marah has given me back a quality of life I thought was just gone with getting older. I can do everyday things now with ease.”
“With all my Auto-Immune issues, I thought working out and being strong wasn’t possible anymore. Marah has helped me regain not just strength in my body, but I’m in less pain, have less fatigue, and feel so relaxed after class.”
“I can’t believe only one class a week has made such a difference in my work-out routine.”
“Even when I really feel like skipping class, I go anyway knowing I’m going to feel so much better after.”
This space was born from my own experience.
Your body already knows the way—this is simply the alchemy of remembering.
I’ve been a holistic health practitioner for almost 20 years, blending bodywork, movement, and wellness practices to help women feel more at home in their bodies. As a licensed massage therapist (retiring), nationally certified barre instructor, and lifelong student of holistic health and wellness, I created My Mindful Barre Method from my own need to find another way — and the longing to rebuild strength without pushing my body beyond its limits. Navigating autoimmune challenges and the perimenopause odyssey myself, every sequence is designed to be intentional, safe, and rooted in compassion.
What began as a personal practice has become a sanctuary for women like you: a place to feel safe, seen, and supported while rediscovering your strength, balance, and vitality.
Step into your personal renaissance — one that begins deep within.
