Carrie discovered the Pure Barre Technique in 2005 while completing her Pilates Instructor Certification through Studio Surge in Birmingham, MI. Training under Carrie Rezabek and watching Pure Barre start to grow, she knew that owning a studio was the next step. After a few years of teaching Pilates, Pure Barre & earning an MA in French Language & Culture, Carrie and her husband, Cory, celebrated their entrepreneurial spirits by opening Pure Barre, Ann Arbor in August, 2008. It is such a rewarding pleasure to share the Pure Barre Technique with our community. I truly believe that it is the safest, most effective form of exercise available. Also a very humbling and super-challenging workout, our teachers and clients work together to create a team atmosphere, supporting each other to achieve the best possible results.
