Michelle Anderson

Owner

Michelle, a Laguna local, is honored to bring Barre to Laguna Beach! A born and raised Jersey girl who grew up in the world of competitive dance. Her love for movement and dance was instrumental in helping her conquer Leukemia at a young age. Dance, not only, taught her proper technique and discipline, but, also mind and body positivity. After graduating from Arizona State University in 2011, she quickly realized a desk job wasn’t for her! This is when Michelle’s fitness career began. She started with teaching hot yoga, but soon after, fell in love with Barre in 2012. She is excited to share her positivity and passion of barre with all! When she’s not teaching or taking barre class, Michelle loves to spend time with her husband, Matt, and boxer, Cali, who you may catch a time or two at the studio!







Angelica Smith

Instructor

Angelica began taking barre classes in 2012, and became a barre enthusiast ever since. She has a passion for fitness, nutrition, and mental health, and believes that all three are deeply connected. 

Angelica is also a marriage and family therapist specializing in pregnancy and postpartum, and is part of a group practice in Newport Beach. She has been living in Laguna Beach for the past three years with her fiancé, with whom they welcomed a baby boy in January 2023. When she is not at barre or at work, Angelica loves going to the beach, singing and playing guitar, and spending time with family. 






Tracey Thompson

Instructor

Tracey started her fitness journey early on as a gymnast, dancer, fitness competitor and model. She turned her passion into a 40 year career in the fitness industry. Educating and teaching others about health and fitness has been her life journey for herself, family and clients, she wants others to love it as much as she. 

For her, Barre is all she loves about fitness- strength, posture, grace, and flexibility…. When she is not teaching, she owns a Neuromuscular Therapy practice in north Laguna and spends time with her husband and family.







Ella Ross

Instructor

Ella has been a competitive dancer for 13 years. During those years she has learned the importance of dedication while training intensely in various styles such as Ballet, Jazz, Pom, Hip Hop, contemporary, gymnastics and more! She continued her passion in college and competed at nationals in Florida with the Orange Coast College dance team. Currently, Ella is pursuing a certification in apparatus and mat Pilates, alongside helping to coach a high school song and competition team, and teach barre with wonderful teachers at the best studio ever! She was first introduced to barre by Michelle and instantly loved the fusion of ballet, Pilates, and the strengthening workout it offered! Other than that Ella is grateful for her family, God, dogs (boxer girl for life) and the Laguna Barre community!
