Megan Campbell
CEO, Founder, Certified level I & II, Pre & Post Natal Barre and Badass Barre Instructor Megan, an Alaskan native turned Colorado local in 2012, left Alaska in 2000 and went to college at Arizona State University getting a degree in Business and Communication. Before having children she was an Insurance Agent for 7 years and then stayed at home with her 2 kids for 4 years. She considers herself to have workout A.D.D. meaning she has never found a workout she could stick with until she found Barre. She has been taking Barre for 6 years and teaching it for 3 years. She started this business in July 2015 because she wanted to give her community and Denver a different option when it came to Barre. A place that allows people to feel and be themselves, that think outside the typical "barre" studio box and a place that people could achieve their goals each and every class. She prides herself on her teaching style and creativity during every single class. Everything she does is outside the box, one step ahead and innovative. |

Nichole Erlanger
Barre Instructor Nichole began her fitness journey 3 years ago with Barre class at Barre Central (formerly Barre in the Park). Prior to that... NOTHING. She knew she had to make some changes in her routine because of lower back issues from a spinal fusion 10 years prior. After her first class, walking was a struggle because every muscle ached. But that didn’t stop her. She soon became trained in Barre & Lagree Pilates, and is very satisfied and happy with her career path! Her no bullshit attitude for all things "life" translates into her teaching style. Not only does she know her shit when it comes to Barre "form" but it shows in each of her classes when people leave satisfied, sweating and coming back for more. Barre in The Park changed her life for the better, she is healthier and stronger, no turning back now. Rebecca Minor
Barre Instructor Rebecca took her first barre class in 2016 and was instantly hooked! Once she decided to get her mom-bod back in shape, she needed to find a fitness routine she could stick with. At Barre in the Park, she not only found barre fitness — she found a coach that motivated her and a community of women that supported her on her journey!! Barre has transformed Rebecca’s body to a leaner, stronger version of itself and changed her vision of exercise. Exercise used to be a necessary evil, but now is a fun, energizing part of her life! Rebecca wanted to connect with others on their fitness journey and expand her knowledge of barre fitness, so she got certified in 2018. She teaches classes every week and would love to “see you at the barre” soon!
Melissa Wyckhuyse
Barre Instructor This hilarious mom of 2 is originally from Michigan and a graduate of Michigan State. She got out of dodge in 2007 because of that weather. She loves Colorado and the active lifestyle it promotes! Working out is her outlet for staying sane and healthy. She loves all different types of exercise, but has been a fan of barre for years. She has been toying with the idea of teaching for some time and decided to start checking some things off her bucket list before her big 40th birthday. She has a full-time job selling pharmaceuticals and loves it, but teaching barre fills her bucket! She loves encouraging others and finds joy in laughter, friendships and achieving her personal goals. She is a mental health advocate and a member of the Alzheimer’s Association and fundraisers on behalf of her father who is currently battling the disease. Other interests include reading, travel, photography, skiing and wine! Come and take a class with her, it will be high energy, full of humor and a booty burner! Kate Harris
Barre Instructor She’s a wife, mother of three (Quinten-12, William-7, Ellanor-5), and former college athlete. When she entered the real world and started working she had completely fell off the fitness wagon. After having her first son, she was at her heaviest and finally decided she needed to get back in shape. On her own, she managed to lose about 40 lbs by working out in her basement and running. For about a year she tried a variety of different classes, but nothing she tried kept her coming back. She even tried barre at a different studio, but didn’t think it was for her. While she found the class to be challenging, she was counting down the minutes until the end of the class.
Then a friend convinced her to try Barre in the Park with her. She figured she would go to the one free class and be done with it, but she was dead wrong. She fell in love with the class format, the loud music, the instructors and clients, and soon the changes she was seeing in her body. She felt stronger and was motivated to keep pushing herself. After taking classes for about a year and a half, she decided she wanted to become an instructor. She is excited to join the team and help others find their inner badass! Rachel Zavala
Barre Instructor She proudly calls herself the anti-diet dietitian! Her work with eating disorder patients has taught her that broccoli is just as nourishing as pie, and that food should not be approached with a rule book. Your choice of food and exercise should be rooted in enjoyment and what helps you pursue values in life.
She found her way to the barre after years of running and subsequent physical therapy for injuries. While running will always be her first love, barre has been a wonderful addition that keeps her injuries in-check. When she is not at the barre you can find her exploring mountain towns or back in her hometown in DC eating crab cakes! |
