BarrePlus Certification Online & In-person
The BarrePlus method combines elements of Ballet, Pilates and Aerobics. The method integrates the fat-burning format of interval training with muscle-shaping isometrics to quickly and safely reshape your entire body.
The complete BarrePlus certification programme includes the BarrePlus comprehensive course, BarrePlus with accessories and BarrePlus cardio.
Developed and trademarked by Sandrine, Pilates master trainer at Sandrine’s Pilates. and mother of five. BarrePlus is a total body workout, a fusion of Ballet, Pilates and Aerobics.
This intensive, fun, body-sculpting workout has been adapted from a Ballet Barre fitness concept using Sandrine’s 25 years of experience in Pilates as well as a from her background in ballet, dancing and fitness.
The course provides you with the foundations and specific knowledge to be able to teach the BarrePlus method proficiently.
It also includes a repertoire with the ball, the magic circle, the resistance band and cardio exercises.
I created the BarrePlus method, 14 years ago after giving birth to my 4th child and after pulling my hamstrings so badly that I could not go back running for months.
As a competitive runner I started panicking as I needed to lose weight and tone up my body after the birth of my son.That is when BarrePlus was created!
I started mixing Barre and aerobics movements to get my runner’s legs back on track. I used to teach aerobic classes and adding cardio was a great way to lose the weight too and utilising pure Pilates for the core and posture.
At the time NOBODY was doing barre and BarrePlus was all over magazines such as “ Health and Fitness” , “Muscle and Fitness” and so many local ones too in the UK. That was also the time I was training middle distance runners for the Olympics and was the Pilates coach for Dame Kelly Holmes “on camp with Kelly” training the new generation of athletes.

The Barre industry predominantly targets women and dancers. With BarrePlus we have designed a workout to benefit everyone, including men, children, pregnant women and seniors.
Often Barre workouts will consist of no longer than exercises 15 minutes actually spent at the Barre. However with BarrePlus, as the name suggests, a much larger proportion is spent at the Barre. For example, a class usually consists of 15 mins of upper body strength exercise, 15 mins of Pilates core stability, and 30 minutes at the Barre (cardio included).

“I first worked with Sandrine and her team at Sandrine’s Pilates in February 2010 where she tailored a Pilates session especially for my ‘On Camp with Kelly’ initiative. Since then Sandrine and her team have been involved with many Kelly Holmes Education programmes. I am really impressed by Sandrine’s knowledge, enthusiasm, professionalism and her ability to adapt each session to include elements of challenge, learning and development. Believe me when I say one of Sandrine’s sessions makes you alert and gets you switching on your core muscles!”

What our students say
“I love training here… So much so I am now teaching there!
The Mat teacher training course with Sandrine was, as cheesy as it may seem, life-changing! As someone who regards themselves as quite well informed and researched in the field of fitness, I have never felt more inspired and engaged. Sandrine’s confident and knowledgeable approach motivated me to understand the concepts behind Pilates’ method and when I put it into practice I could feel my body changing for the better. Even taking the course just as a benefit for myself and my own body and wellbeing has been a huge takeaway. Following on, I just couldn’t keep this to myself afterward and Sandrine helped me become the teacher that I am now. Thank you!”
Ophelia Mancini
“Sandrine’s endless optimism, encouragement, and knowledge made the Pilates teacher training course so enjoyable and very amusing. There were times where I physically could not do some of the exercises and didn’t believe I would ever be able to do them. Now, I am teaching 3 or 4 times a week and have seen an incredible change in my body, and all those exercises I couldn’t do before, I now can! so thank you very much Sandrine.”
Maddy Cullen
I have been practicing Pilates with Sandrine for almost five years now. There is no one else quite like her – a fabulous instructor and trainer. She is incredibly knowledgeable, highly professional and a true expert in her field. The QUEEN of Pilates. I have recently trained with Sandrine for my Mat Pilates and Barre instructor qualifications and couldn’t have asked for a better trainer. I am now fully qualified and have started teaching and couldn’t be happier. She is extremely approachable and on hand should I require any information or have any questions. I couldn’t fault her in anyway shape or form.
