As a professional dancer, group fitness and barre classes go hand in hand for Colby. The perfect way to cross train and build her strength, she looked forward to sweating it out with friends at the barre. The love of the class and environment inspired her to want to get in front of the room and lead others through a challenging and fun workout and Barre Intensity was the perfect certification training! This is her first fitness certification and she looks forward to further growing her teaching and fitness!
Originally from Seattle Washington, Colby trained at the Pacific Northwest Ballet School. She has since danced with Oregon Ballet Theatre, Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre and Cincinnati Ballet performing the works of Balanchine, Septime Weber, and Terrance S. Orr. Colby has also worked with notable choreographers such as Trey McIntyre and Jennifer Archibald. Now residing in New York, she is represented by The Movement Talent Agency and is freelancing in the city. Highlights include dancing and working with Omar Nieves Delgado in Voulez Vous, Carlos Falú in Moulin Rouge, Katie Drablos in her promotional VOTE film, and Jena VanElslander in her TSQ Project. Now she is thrilled to have her foot in fitness training as a Barre Intensity certified instructor and looks forward to all that will bring!
For Colby, music is the reason for movement! You'll always find yourself grooving to the beat in her workout class. She feels you should always challenge ourselves but most importantly, have a blast doing it!
