One of my favorite things about Lindsay is the giggle that comes out when she teaches class. It can come out for any number of reasons and can come out often. And I love it every time.š§”

š Why Sleep Deserves a Spot in Your Health Routine
We glorify the hustle ā but the truth is, sleep is where the magic happens.
Itās when your body repairs, your brain organizes, and your hormones finally get to chill out.
š¤ Sleep isnāt lazy. Itās strategy.
When you get 7ā9 hours of quality rest, hereās what happens:
⢠š§ Your brain clears out the clutter and locks in new memories.
⢠šŖ Your muscles rebuild stronger.
⢠ā¤ļø Your heart and hormones recalibrate.
⢠āļø Your metabolism resets, helping regulate hunger and blood sugar.
⢠š Your mood evens out, making you a nicer human (you know itās true).
If youāre struggling with energy, cravings, stress, or stubborn plateaus ā donāt add more ādoing.ā
Add better sleeping.
⨠Move well. Eat well. Sleep well. Repeat. āØ

MotivateĀ® Mission: MotivateĀ® strives to inspire you to become stronger and healthier through thoughtful movement, nutrition and community in order to enhance the vibrancy and longevity of your life.
MotivateĀ® was born out of a love of community and of coming alongside people to help them achieve their health and wellness goals. I found barre after son #3. I found it during a time of my life when I felt overwhelmed and depleted. It gave me some much-needed ME time. A byproduct was that in the process of taking a few classes a week, I became stronger and more balanced than I had ever been in all my years in competitive sports. I fell in love and needed to share it with everyone willing to listen and partake.
After teaching in Newburyport for about 8 years, I made the entrepreneurial leap to open my own studio. I found a dear spot in downtown Newburyport which made it even sweeter. The ability to take class and then walk a few paces to grab coffee or a fresh-pressed juice...or a glass of wine :-), created the sense of local community that I desired. It also as mimicked the feel of the studio where my love of barre began. It came full circle.
Adding the cardio and cycle...and most recently, nutrition coaching to the studio only made it sweeter, sweatier, and more well rounded. You can find everything here...strength and length as well as shred and sweat. And you get it all in a smaller instructor-client ratio to ensure sound form and personal attention. Our instructors are trained and certified in barre as it was originally intended: as a dynamic, full-body, joint-safe workout that strengthens and stretches all the major muscle groups in the body that originates in the Lotte Berk Method. MotivateĀ® Barre is set to fun and upbeat music and combines ballet barre work, core conditioning, yoga, Pilates, and orthopedic exercises. The controlled movements are very focused, effective, and safe. (No coordination is necessary.) Proper alignment and form is the primary focus. Hands-on adjustments are built into class to take each client to their personal best. Incorporated into each session are active stretches to develop more toned, sculpted, lengthened, and supple muscles. The entire body and mind are constantly working throughout each session. Every position is cued to properly achieve and maintain core engagement. Through this process, your body, posture, and physical awareness will be transformed. No area of the body is left undiscovered in a barre class.
MotivateĀ® is a true community player. We learn, serve and socialize together through MotivateĀ® Book Groups, Serve and Socials. We currently serve at Our Neighborās Table quarterly together. We are also a sponsor of the Newburyport Education Foundation. Barre Local and Serve Local.
If you are looking for a true community of people who are kind, genuine, and like to work hard...MotivateĀ® is it.
