Yoga studio to stretch into the heart of Raleigh during Christmas Parade
Barre-up Raleigh is not your conventional yoga studio.

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Barre-up Raleigh is not your conventional yoga studio.



"Sometimes, we're a bit unconventional with our yoga classes and our personalities," Leah Ward, Co-Owner of the studio confessed. "I let my personality be all out there!"



Ward and Winter Holbrook have owned the yoga studio for just a little over a year. The duo will be first-year participants in this year's Raleigh Christmas Parade.



Winter and I love holidays so much, I think Winter has already started decorating her house," Ward said of her business partner.



"I love holidays, my name IS Winter."





Barre-up Raleigh is located at 4224 Beryl road in Raleigh and sits just inside the belt line.



The studio, which offers yoga, pilates, barre, and buti practices, will have a float midway through the parade.



"I get to fulfill a childhood fantasy where you're on a float and get to wave to the crowd!" Holbrook said.
