Our founder, Tara Newbigging, had spent years leading fitness and wellness classes when she began to sense something missing … a deeper layer that traditional fitness couldn’t touch. She noticed how many women were showing up strong on the outside but carrying unspoken emotion within.

She knew movement had the power to shift energy, release emotion, and restore a woman’s connection to herself, but only if the space allowed for authenticity and heart.

So she began to listen.
To the rhythm of music.
To the quiet wisdom of the body.
To the truth that strength and softness could coexist.

What began as one class in a small mountain community in Canada became something far greater … a global movement that celebrates women’s strength, emotion, and connection.

Each class became a mirror, a place where women could see themselves clearly, not through expectation, but through presence.
And with every breath, every beat, every class, something profound unfolded: women were remembering themselves.

Today, The b. class® continues to ripple outward through hundreds of leaders and countless women around the world … each one guided by Tara’s original intention and the shared belief that movement can heal, empower, and awaken.

Her energy flows through the music, the sequences, and the safe spaces created by every leader. She remains the heart behind the movement — the spark that continues to remind us all to move from the inside out.

This is how The b. class® began … and how it continues:
as a living movement, guided by heart, shared by many, and forever rooted in the simple truth that movement is medicine.
