ABOUT ME

“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”
~John Quincy Adams
Rachel Withers was a ballet dancer who formally trained at the Royal Ballet School. She retired from the Royal Ballet in 1999, but still incorporates her passion for dance into her everyday life. Rachel is a self-proclaimed FITpreneur who loves helping other women meet their fitness goals in a fun and challenging way with BalletBeFit.
Rachel Withers used her professional ballet history to design a group-based exercise class, inspired by ballet techniques. At BalletBeFit, Rachel hires experienced dance/fitness instructors who can continue learning through BalletBeFit Academy, maintaining high standards for the company and their clients. As founder and CEO of BalletBeFit, Rachel Withers hopes to use her knowledge as a FITpreneur to help others break into the industry.
Rachel Withers learned much of her business management skills through her career in the student accommodation industry. These business insights gave her much of the knowledge to start BalletBeFit and continue on her journey as a FITpreneur.
