What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?

First, Motivate is fun as well as challenging—yes, working out can be both. Our highly-skilled teachers work with a small student/teacher ratio, which helps them keep motivating you towards your goals while keeping you safe with solid form. Workouts are varied and set to stellar music, which also keeps you motivated.

Exercise is challenging. How do you keep clients motivated and engaged?

We don't call ourselves "motivate" for nothing. We know what works—barre to lengthen and strengthen safely and core & cardio to pump your heart and make you sweat. Combine the two while having instructors who get to know you, your strengths, and limitations, and you have the perfect combination.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?

Meghan Kinsey has been teaching barre in Newburyport for over ten years. Her love of the discipline combined with her love of meeting and engaging new people made for the perfect business plan.

What do you love most about your job?

The people. Laughing with them, challenging them, helping them meet their goals, seeing the happiness on their faces when they do. I could go on and on!
