First of all, what is booty barre and second, who is Jada?
Booty barre is a rigorous form of exercise that combines a stationary handrail (as in ballet barre) with an exercise routine. Booty barre classes are regularly scheduled on the island and are run by Margaret Peters Lamp. One of the regulars attending the class was Jada Shigley. Jada is known to many on Marco Island as an employee of the Marco Island Marriott, she is on the board of directors for the Chamber of Commerce, and volunteers countless hours to various organizations and events, particularly those that involve area children.
Recently, Jada was diagnosed with breast cancer and is undergoing a series of harsh chemotherapy treatments. “Jada was one of the first people I met when I first moved to Marco Island 21 years ago. Everyone loves Jada, and my students love booty barre, so when contemplating how we could help, it was a natural; a booty barre benefit!” If you would like to get

A great group of ladies helped pull this all together! They’re awesome and it is all for one of our own!”
