Lena MacDonald (She/Her)
Hi, I’m Lena. I live in Fernie, B.C. with my husband, two daughters and our golden retriever, Molly. As a teacher, I will hold space for you to move, grow, and deeply connect with your body and mind in a way that feels safe and empowering. I hope to instill in you a sense of confidence and calm that carries beyond the barre—reminding you that strength and grace can coexist beautifully.
I grew up in Oberrieden, Switzerland and began dancing at 8, training at Atelier Rainbow Tanzkunst. Then, my curiosity for international affairs and languages led me to Vancouver, where I earned a BA in Political Science and French at UBC, and studied at Sciences Po in Paris.
Now living in Fernie, I lead a talent marketing team by day. In 2022, I returned to the barre—this time through barre fitness. It felt like coming home and inspired me to earn my teaching certification at Ballet Beats® as a creative outlet and a way to share my love for movement with others.
Dance is food for the soul. I am excited to bring the Ballet Beats® Method to Fernie and dance, sweat and smile with you!
