MEET
Syra
Hi! I'm Syra, the owner & founder of Body Bar SD. My passion for beauty is only exceeded by my zeal for helping others reach their optimal desired results. This is the motivation behind Body Bar SD. In the winter of 2020, I found myself feeling unhappy and burnt out.
So much of my work life and career was not what I wanted or envisioned. I was at a roadblock keeping me away from more success and reward. I knew I wanted to invest myself in a dream of my own. I just didn't know where or how to begin. I questioned, Am I being too bold for wanting to leave my 10-year career in the medical field? Should I leave this employer, or chuck my whole career, or make a pivot? One thing I knew for sure, I have always had a passion for helping others enhance their natural beauty. And so, the concept of Body Bar SD was born. My vision was to build a Woman-Owned business enterprise where women could entrust their body's to a group of professionals who aid in building self-confidence and sexy results from the inside out into a reality.
There is no better feeling than seeing your clients smile with a renewed confidence through results YOU helped them achieve!
I knew from the very beginning of my entrepreneurship; which I started from my garage, a career in beauty therapy was for me. Right from the start, I invested in myself day & night, taking in clients before & after my full-time shift as a healthcare worker. To say I was busy every day would be an understatement. I was working 12+ hour days, but it never truly felt like a "job." Instead, it felt rewarding & fulfilling. The saying "love what you do and you'll never work a day in your life" really hits differently now. Body Bar SD was the exact thing I needed to fill that void within me. After 6 months of working out of a small area inside of my garage, by popular demand I expanded to a bigger location & resigned my 9 to 5.
With each waking morning, I can't help but feel abundantly blessed to see my vision come to pass and fortunate to have so many women entrust in my team and I to make them feel beautiful and deliver life changing results.
I am so proud of where I am & how hard I've worked to get here. The journey has not been an easy one… From moving out at age 18 to dropping out of college and having a baby soon after, I felt the odds were always against me. But I persevered and trusted in God.
I owe everything to God, my successes, failures, strength, and boldness. To my husband Miguel for always encouraging and believing in me, even when nobody else did. And lastly, to my two beautiful boys who fuel me every day to become a better person.
As much as I enjoy delivering results, the therapeutic experience I get by talking & getting to know each individual who comes through the door on a deeper level is beyond amazing. What're you waiting for!?
Book your appointment now; I'm looking forward to meeting you soon!
