My Own Journey:

  • Barre and small group fitness was one of the first business models that really made FINANCIAL sense to me!
  • I had loved fitness for years, but was afraid to leave my six figure corporate career to open a fitness studio.
  • In 2009, I found barre and it CHANGED MY LIFE! I went from a size 12 to a size 4. It improved my confidence and I fell in LOVE!
  • Despite over 15 years of business and management experience, when I launched my first studio, I made over $75,000 in mistakes in JUST the first year!

I'm Amy Mewborn and in 2010, I left my 15 year six figure finance career to open my first barre studio!

That first year, I made over $75,000 of mistakes. 7 months later, I opened my SECOND studio and it was over 3 times more successful.

I helped write franchise manuals and have helped launch over 75 studios across the world - offering barre, yoga, pilates, spin, cycle, bootcamp, cardio dance, TRX, and more!

Today - I help you open your own successful studio - without the costs and restrictions of a barre franchise!

Real Success Stories...

After receiving a glowing testimonial from another client of Amy’s, my decision was simple - I went all in. It was one of the easiest (and best) decisions I have made.

While the abundant information and resources in the SIB portal are valuable time and money savers, I have found the most value and support in my direct contact with Amy (my “Amy Dates”).


Our entire process of opening our studio was just a few months and Amy’s analogy of “drinking water through a fire hose” was spot on! In addition to her vast knowledge and experience (lease negotiations build out, staffing, marketing, etc.),

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Amy's Studio in a Box program. I highly recommend it for anyone dreaming of starting a studio without the franchise fees, while maintaining true creative freedom.

I had contemplated opening a Barre franchise but I had always heard that you were buying yourself a job when you buy into a barre franchise...which is what I wanted to leave. They also required very high liquidity and required me to quit my job. I thirsted for the freedom to do what I wanted and to have the flexibility without rules and fees, but also wanted (and needed) the support. I would not have gotten my loan or a real estate agent to take me seriously without the documents provided for a business plan and financial projections within the program.

If you have a dream of owning your own studio, Amy’s so worth it!

As I started out my dream of having my very own studio, I really didn’t think I would be able to NOT go with a Barre3 franchise. I just didn’t think I had enough business and marketing knowledge to start up a studio from scratch. As I looked deeper into the world of franchises, I realized how limited I would be, financially and creatively, to start up this dream.

I can’t imagine the stress I would be under if I had decided to go with a franchise--the fees, the monthly royalty payments, the lack of personal expression… the list goes on.
