Physical movement and strength training provide tremendous benefits to an individual's health and sense of well-being.  Teaching for BarreTech studios, under the tutelage of owner Amy Barnes, showed Dona that physical fitness can be incorporated into one's life, regardless of age, body type and fitness level.  Through BarreTech's curriculum, Dona was able to help students achieve improvements in their physical and emotional health.  Through her classes, students learned to focus on increased flexibility and strength through a combination of balletic movements, Yoga, Pilates and weight training.  Dona's Barre instruction and training has since continued at VIDA Fitness.
