Feel the joy of movement in a full body, low impact workout. Dance and movement have been a huge passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Gemma ###
Inspired by Classical Ballet and Modern dance training techniques with the precision of Pilates and fluidity of Yoga, Bootybarre is a workout for EVERYBODY. Having trained to be a professional dancer in London and working both as a performer and teacher in a variety of movement styles, I grew to appreciate the holistic approach to body conditioning that is found in dance training.

Hi everyone,
I hope that you've all had the chance to rest and recharge over the holidays.
With the decorations down and family returning home, perhaps you feel ready to start moving your bodies, building strength, and finding some joy in the process!
Classes start back this week and I am so looking forward to seeing you back in the studio and welcoming some new faces too.
Welcome to 2025!
Love,

As some of you may know, the founder of Academy Street Dance Studio, Jemma McRae, lost her life to Breast Cancer in 2019. This week, the studio will be marking her birthday by raising money for Friends of Anchor, a charity that Jemma supported throughout her illness.
I thought it would be great for us to support this worthy cause. If you would like to join in, please wear a touch of red and bring a small donation to class. This is entirely optional so no pressure at all.
See you tomorrow # # #
Dance and movement have been a huge passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Having trained in London professionally as a dancer and working both as a performer and teacher in a variety of movement styles, I grew to appreciate the holistic approach to body conditioning that is found in dance training.
Working in London, I discovered bootybarre and its positive impact on both my body and mood. The programme is a fusion of pilates, yoga and ballet-based movement – which continue to provide a natural remedy for coping with the busyness of everyday life. And best of all, it brings together a social group of like-minded individuals that elevate and encourage one another. It is with this sentiment, I’d like to share the benefits of bootybarre with Aberdeen.
bootybarre is a high energy, low impact exercise programme focusing on flexibility to encourage long, lean muscles. This safe and well-structured class can be modified for any fitness level.
Created by L.A based celebrity trainer Tracey Mallett, bootybarre is guaranteed to give you results. As the first certified bootybarre instructor in Scotland, I’m thrilled to bring this concept to Aberdeen.
See you at the barre!
