Athena Brensberger

Athena Brensberger is a Brooklyn, New York native who relocated to Texas in 2021. Athena trained in classical ballet in NYC for 20 years at various companies such as Alvin Ailey, Geoffrey Ballet Academy, and Broadway Dance Center for their intensive training program, where she earned a role as a stand-in for The Rockettes. She trained under instructor Finis Jung at Alvin Ailey in New York City. Aside from the love of dance, Athena pursued astrophysics research for NASA under the advising of Neil Degrasse Tyson as an undergrad in NYC. Her love for the stars is as meaningful as dance, fitness, and wellbeing. With a dream to go to space one day, she believes in optimal health and strength, which is why she became so passionate about barre! Athena completed her Balletone certification through Barre Above in 2021. Barre allows our bodies to strengthen in the proper posture that will stick with us for as long as we continue to train our muscles! She also has 10 years of international modeling experience, currently signed with WilhelminaModeling Agency.
