What is Barre3? Barre3 is a full, total body balanced workout. It focuses mainly on strength conditioning, mindfulness, cardio, and yoga. By combining these courses, it results in intense muscle burning with only a little movement but extra holds, cardio bursts that get your heart pumping, and breathing exercises to wrap it all up. The purpose of Barre3 is to feel empowerment and balance within your body.
In this franchise run by Sadie Lincoln, there are almost 200 Barre3 studios owned in the USA. Two of those 197 are run by Jennifer Bobodzhanov. Jen owns the only 2 studios in Idaho. One in Eagle, and one in Boise. Jen is described as a “hard-working” entrepreneur and small business owner. She is also a certified Life Coach and a Legacy ambassador for Lululemon. According to Jen, she has loved fitness since high school, but only because she thought it was the solution to look a certain way. After going to therapy for under eating and nonstop exercising, she found Barre3 10 years ago, recommended by her therapist. She then soon started her own studio, the first one in Eagle, Idaho. “I wanted to give other women a space to workout that was effective and mentally healthy,” Jen said.
Right now, Jen is still working her hardest with her businesses for both studios and one business coaching and consulting company.
Jen explains, “The hardest thing about owning small businesses is not working too many hours. Especially because I love what I do, it’s easy to work all the time.”
