Founded by professional dancer and international fitness expert Andrea Fornarola, Elements Barre Fit was born out of a desire to create a more intelligent, comprehensive, and joyful workout routine. Having spent her life studying movement, Andrea recognized a massive flaw in the fitness market: most studios forced clients to choose between intense, joint-depleting cardio or isolated toning patterns that quickly led to plateaus.
Elements was built to shatter that mold. Our proprietary formula seamlessly bridges the gap between high-performance athletic conditioning, deep core Pilates stabilization, and rhythmic, uplifting Dance Cardio. By prioritizing a careful composition of 60% tone, 20% sweat, and 20% stretch, we ensure that every session leaves your muscles thoroughly sculpted, your heart health boosted, and your body structurally aligned. We are proud to remain a completely independent, boutique brand dedicated to personalized attention, elite instruction, and vibrant local communities in Manhattan and the Hamptons.
Andrea Fornarola is the Founder, CEO, and Head Trainer of Elements Barre Fit, with over 25 years of experience in fitness, movement, and performance.
A former professional dancer and musical theatre performer, Andrea has built a reputation for creating dynamic, results-driven fitness experiences that blend the precision of barre with strength training, Pilates, yoga, and dance-inspired movement.
Andrea is a Magna Cum Laude graduate of the University at Buffalo (SUNY) with a BFA in Dance and holds nationally recognized certifications through ACE and AFAA. She is also a member of SAG-AFTRA and Actors’ Equity Association.
Since opening Elements East Hampton in 2014, Andrea has expanded the brand with the launch of Elements Corporate Wellness in 2016, delivering customized wellness programs and fitness experiences for leading companies and organizations. She later opened Elements Upper East Side in 2020 and Elements Barre Fit Sag Harbor in 2024.
Known as the #BarreDiva, Andrea continues to redefine boutique fitness through her signature classes, innovative programming, and passion for helping every client feel stronger, healthier, and more confident—both inside and outside the studio.
“We take pride in providing clients a safe and friendly workout environment to reach their fitness goals as well as trainers to share their talents as gifted and inspiring individuals. Keeping our mission in mind we work to create a client focused and individualized experience in a group fitness environment. We want our #fitfam to feel safe, comfortable and inspired to work hard and reach their fitness goals. We strive to meet and service our clients in every ELEMENT of their daily lives. In doing this, we have created a network of the most amazing people, and I am so excited to continue to spread our reach as we scale our successful brand and vision.”
