Hidden Gems: Meet Sami Haley of True Barre

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sami Haley.

Hi Sami, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I grew up very active. I played soccer from four years old and all the way through college soccer. I also grew up also doing gymnastics, dance, and martial arts. When I stopped playing college soccer, I started working out on my own and realized I loved how good I felt and much I enjoyed it, and I had a passion for fitness. I wanted to share that passion and give others the ability to feel the way I did, so I started personal training, Pilates training, and teaching various fitness classes.

And from there, I’ve been able to grow and develop my passion more to open my fitness studio True Barre and create my classes, method, and program at True Barre.

I’ve also gotten to this point with hard work, determination, and so much support from family and loved ones. Everything I do and having my studio isn’t just for me, it’s for all of us!

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I don’t think anything is always as smooth as it could be. I absolutely love what I do, so even the hard times are worth it. I have the ability to learn and grow from the hard times. It always brings me joy to persevere, keep strong for others, and reminds why I do what I do.

There will always be things that come into play that we can either learn and grow from, adjust to make work, or just not take “no” for answer and keep pushing. There have definitely been stressful times and I work to acknowledge what is happening and plan to attack it!

I’ve definitely learned certain things that I didn’t know as a business owner for what to do and what not to do. Abs I’ve learned through this past year that struggles will come that we may not have full control over, but that we can be strong, resilient. and persevere. That is exactly what I went through. We were creative and driven to succeed and come out on top, and with hard work, determination, stress, and passion we push past those struggles.

Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about True Barre?
I own a fitness studio called True Barre. We are a premier barre & fitness studio in SCV, including True Barre, Pilates, Kickboxing, Yoga, HIIT, and so much more that will give you the results you desire! Working strong isolated movements with constant connection, you work that whole body! We also have reformers and we have Pilates training and classes and personal training at our studio too.

What sets us apart is no one has our classes or True Barre method. I have created our specific True Barre method and all of our classes. Everything is specialized to us specifically at True Barre.

I am proud of how we developed our method and have been able to teach that to so many that absolutely love it. I’m proud of the constant and continual growth we are able to do from my personal growth to growth in the studio, to developing new classes and training my instructors, to growth in our amazing clients. Growth in our clients in classes and their hard work and overall growth in our clientele. It is the best giving our clients the best hour of their day and showing them how amazing and strong they, and that they can handle anything and everything that comes their way. We work for constant positivity and it shows!

At True Barre, we are passionate about what our bodies can do. Movement is key for the body. The body is meant to move, and I love giving people the ability to move their bodies and to see just how far they can push themselves. To find their strength & confidence within and create the positive changes within in the mind, body, and soul. Everything we do, we should with purpose and intention. And when we work out, we really focus in and hone in on that connection. We strengthen not only our bodies but also our minds in that. And then we have the ability to use both that physical and mental strength in all parts of life to be strong within and do everything with purpose and intention. The desire to change must be greater than the desire to stay the same, and I love giving that to people.

We have our classes in the studio and we also have online virtual classes too! You can work out with us from anywhere!

How do you think about happiness?
Living life to the fullest! My family, friends, making dreams come true, and living for the things I’m passionate about that makes me happy.

I don’t want to go through each day feeling weighed down or negative, so I work each day to find balance and be with the people and things that I love, have a passion for, and that fills my heart up. That makes me happy.

I hope to instill that in people each day as well, to let go of what doesn’t serve them purpose. To connect to the things that they love, that make them happy and that they can control… be positive and happy in everything we can, and I feel it makes a huge difference in everyday life.
