After bringing his talent from New York City to Los Angeles, from the big screen to the small screen and even to the stage, dancer/choreographer Richard Giorla, has used his over 30 years of experience and classical training to create Cardio Barre.

​

It all began when Richard suffered a crushing hip injury, which ended his dance career. Giorla wanted to keep moving at a pace that made sense for his body, yet no exercise routine met his needs.
 

Giorla saw the need for a high-energy workout, offering cardio yet without the impact on the body, offering a much safer workout. Giorla used his passion for dance and fitness to design a workout that combined the two and created what is today, Cardio Barre..
 

Richard continues to use his motivational techniques to inspire and transform lives… He has inspired over 100,000 clients and gives clear techniques as a catalyst for change. His mission is to help others “Live a healthier and more meaningful lifestyle…”.
