Community {{Testimonials}}

Don’t just take our word for it, here’s why our graduates love Body Maestro

Renee was absolutely phenomenal in the instructor training workshops! I feel honoured to be trained by the creator herself. She was so thorough, I feel fully prepared to be an excellent instructor myself. Barre Attack is a tough workout that leaves you (or me, at least!) dripping with sweat every time, and it doesn't get any better than that! Who doesn't want a fun, full-body workout surrounded by awesome instructors and great peeps?!

Would highly recommend this course!!!

I’m from a Physiotherapy and exercise science background with ZERO dance experience!! The staff were amazing and extremely helpful. The exercises are amazing for a diverse population and I can’t wait to use them for pre/post natal/ orthopaedic/ musculoskeletal and elder populations.

Thanks again guys!!!

The Barre Attack Instructor training program was so rewarding. Renee worked closely with each instructor to ensure they understood the content, how to execute it with sound technique and clear teaching cues. Renee passes on her expertise with confidence, positivity, professionalism and humility. I highly recommend Barre Attack classes and the instructor training program

Great, fun, informative course.

Renee is an amazing teacher.

Barre attack is so different to any other Barre course and I would definitely recommend it.

Having tried a number of "barre" techniques, "Barre Attack" is my Goldilocks find..."just right"! Renee and her team have created a syllabus that you can grow into over many years, and still be challenged, have fun, be motivated, and work hard! It is a safe, effective, full body workout that improves, balance, strength, flexibility, cardio, tone. I loved it so much that I decided to become a Barre Attack Instructor (as an ex-dancer and teacher). I have now done all the training courses, and cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Renee and her team. The support, positivity, generosity (of time, personal attention, teaching techniques, information) provided is amazing and often hard to find. It is such a family...there is no pretention: everyone is special and valued. They really want their clients and instructors to have the best outcomes possible. I feel fully prepared and confident in my instructing.

I also have so many clients who give me great feedback about the classes I run. All thanks to the lovely Renee and her team!! 

Don't waste time with other types of "Barre" - you will find the whole package here

I love Barre Attack for a total body, all-round workout. You get a great cardio workout but most importantly, it is focused on technique, and participants understand what they are working and why. Renee's training programs are exceptional. I highly recommend the teacher training and recommend Barre Attack for participants of all fitness levels!

Highly recommend course! Renee is a absolutely fantastic course facilitator. Learnt so much and can't wait to learn more!

Renee Scott-director from Barre Attack is incredible!

I highly recommend the courses run by Barre Attack- the course was fun, informative, and I feel a great addition to "Pilates Nest'.

I look forward to continuing my journey of 'health/ movement' with Renee, and learning from one if the best in the industry.

Thank you Renee!

Renee Scott and her barre attack instructor course is really incredible. Her training, technique and teaching is so thorough and I feel really lucky to have been trained and educated by such a knowledgeable and beautiful soul as well :) I absolutely loved this course and highly recommend it to anyone!
