My name is Lan. I was born and raised in California and have lived in Encinitas for the last 13 years. I’ve been a licensed esthetician for 7 years. My husband and I have been married for 24 years. We have two “kids” Jacob – age 20 and Abigail – age 18. We have a fur baby black lab named Grace. I am a huge hockey fan!
Originally from upstate NY, Katie has made her way across the U.S. After living in Denver, she settled in San Diego where she enjoys hikes, beach days, cooking vegetarian recipes and of course a good tuck. Katie plans to receive her doctorate in naturopathic medicine and is so excited to be part of the Studio Barre Encinitas family!
Peyton grew up in Encinitas and has lived in the Encinitas/La Costa area her whole life! She recently graduated from CSUSM with a degree in Kinesiology and still likes to keep on with exercise and nutrition research🤓. She grew up doing dance and cheering in high school. Peyton fell in love with barre because of the familiar positions and movements from her dance background! She and her husband are high school sweethearts and are one of the few couples who had a wedding in 2020. They have a cute mutt named Maverick (guess what high school they went to 😉) and enjoy walking him on the trails in their neighborhood. When Peyton’s not at the barre, she works as a chiropractic assistant and spends her free time serving at her church, baking, organizing, and coming up with DIY projects!
Jessica was born and raised in Encinitas. She attended Pacific View Elementary waaaay back when it was the coolest school in town with an amazing view of the Pacific Ocean right from the lunch tables. She also went to Oak Crest and San Dieguito so she is local to the core. She met her husband in high school and together they have three amazing children. Jessica started taking barre classes a decade ago and has slowly built her way up to being a regular morning barre babe. If she’s not holding down the corner spot at the studio, you can find her somewhere around town shopping for care package items for her college kids or planning the next social hour at her house. She loves to host our Studio Barre book club too! Jessica and her husband keep very busy traveling to visit their kids in college or planning mini weekend getaways with friends.
After leaving a successful {and demanding} career in advertising to start a family, Kate moved from San Diego to North County to focus on another demanding job, being a Stay-at-Home Mom. She found Studio Barre after her neighbor was raving about how fun and effective it was. After years of dreading fitness, Kate fell in love with the vibe at Studio Barre and discovered that she was actually having fun working out! Fast forward 8 years to the end of 2020 and she was ready to get as far away from remote learning as possible! The universe delivered the perfect opportunity, a job at her happy place. Kate has since moved into a management role and has found great joy being part of the incredible SBE tribe and striving to give the clients the best experience possible.
Stephanie grew up in Santa Barbara before heading to Cal Poly SLO for college, where she obtained her degree in graphic design. While there, she met her husband, Alex, and together they have three lovely daughters. She is a classically trained pianist, fluent in Spanish and has been practicing Jiu Jitsu since 2017. Staying fit has always been important to Stephanie – even as a new mother, she taught Stroller Strides. In 2010 she discovered Studio Barre and has not looked back. She loves the variety of the workouts and challenge it provides. More so, she loves Studio Barre community!
Tina grew up in the dance studio and danced all the way through the start of college. She has a background in fashion and earned a marketing degree from FIDM. While fashion is absolutely one of her passions still she also found herself succeeding in sales, logistics and event planning over the course of her career. Life changed a bit after having her daughter (thanks Covid) and after being a stay at home mom for a few years she was so ready to get back to taking on more of a challenge for herself. Tina has been tucking at Studio Barre since 2017 and while being a loyal client for years was so much fun she’s found that being an official part of the SBE team is even better!
When Tina isn’t teaching or taking class at SBE you can find her going on a new adventure with her family, meeting girlfriends for a glass (or 3) of wine, shopping or planning her next getaway. Tina’s father was born in Italy and one of her favorite trips to date was bringing her husband to her family’s tiny little village in their tiny little mountain town in Italy. It’s their goal to get back there soon with their daughter now so that she can start learning about her family heritage too.
Kimberly is a multifaceted spitfire who spent the first 12 years of her adult life working various positions in the wine industry. As a kid she practiced gymnastics but became disconnected from fitness for many years. When the allure of wine wore off, she felt the call to reconnect to her body and made fitness the new priority in her life. The day she discovered barre, she was hooked! When Kimberly isn’t at Studio Barre you can probably find her wandering Laguna Beach, curled up somewhere studying a long forgotten form of Astrology, or hanging out while pet sitting your dog.
Kelly was born and raised in the Chicago area. She started her adventure out west when she went to NAU in Flagstaff, AZ where she met her husband who is from Encinitas. She landed in this beautiful place right after they got married. They have two boys, 13 & 10, who are very active and keep them going constantly moving.
Kelly took her first barre class in 2010 and never looked back. The music, instructors, clients and of course the workout got her hooked instantly. She’s always had a passion for fitness, and if she’s not at barre you can find her out for a run, long walk or a bike ride. She enjoys traveling with her family whether they are hitting the slopes, laying on a beach or checking out a new city.
Kelly is so happy to be apart of the SBE team and great organization.

Amanda was born and raised in Encinitas Ca, bought the house I was born and raised in from my parents. Married my high school sweetheart, we met at 16 in Washington DC when we were Pages for Congress. Married in 2000 and had our first of 4 children in 2009, our last baby was born 2014. I was a stay at home mom and it absolutely filled my heart and soul, and it was everything I needed.
Fast forward 5 years from my last baby’s birth and knew I needed to find something not only for my physical health, but mental health as well. Knowing that my last baby would be starting kindergarten gave me some serious feelings.
I walked into SBE June 2019, and was hooked. I’d done all the other workouts, Zumba, spin, step… nothing filled my heart, soul or gave me the workout and change in my body I was looking for. I took one barre class at SBE and literally never looked back. I went everyday. I completed my centurion status in 112 days. I was hooked
I knew pretty quickly in taking class that I would also love to teach. Fast forward to January 2020 and I auditioned and went into training.
I love taking class just as much as I love teaching. You’ll see me in the studio often, either teaching or taking. If you love a good themed class there’s a good chance I’ve got one planned for you.
There are two things I’m passionate about in life, first my family, second my Tribe at SBE and giving and getting the best workout ever.
