#044: The Benefits of Barre Exercise with Joanna Amelio
Graduating from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in pre-med and psychology, Joanna has always had a fascination with the workings of the human mind and body. After college, she thrived in Chicago for 11 years as a successful consultant and entrepreneur. All the while, this lifelong fitness enthusiast maintained her pursuit of a targeted exercise regimen that was both physically challenging and mentally stimulating — Enter the Dailey Method. After moving back to her native Pittsburgh, it was clear that her home town and this ideal workout just had to meet. Joanna is thrilled the people of western Pennsylvania now get to experience the transformation of mind, body, and spirit that comes with The Dailey Method.
