Adri M.

Business Owner

Ann Arbor native, Adri Madias is the owner of The Barre Code Ann Arbor. After graduating from Arizona State University with a BS in Supply Chain Management, she moved back to her home town and worked in the corporate world for nearly a decade for companies such as Pfizer, Terumo Cardiovascular and Valassis Communications. Since fitness has always been a priority, Adri has continually taken classes of all types from yoga, pilates, cardio classes and more throughout her time in both Arizona and Michigan. She decided to change her career path because her true passion is fitness, and feels like she is contributing to other women’s lives by helping them feel better about their health and self-​image both mentally and physically. She began training in Chicago in the summer of 2011 and opened in August of that year. Since then, the studio has expanded to double its original size to incorporate a hot room, and in January of 2014, she opened a second location on Ann Arbor’s north side.
