What is Barre?

Barre is a unique workout inspired by elements of ballet, Pilates, and yoga. Utilizing a ballet barre for support, this low-impact exercise focuses on small, controlled movements to target specific muscle groups. The result is a full-body workout that emphasizes alignment, balance, and muscle toning. With its origins in dance, Barre offers a graceful and challenging workout experience that appeals to individuals of all fitness levels.

Bring a positive attitude! Hydration is key so don’t forget to bring a water bottle. Touch-less water coolers are available to refill your water bottle. If you do forget to bring a bottle, we do sell bottled water in our studio. We recommend brining your own exercise mat and towel to use during class. However, should you forget, we do have towels available to borrow at no additional cost.

Regardless of whether you’re taking a strength or cycling class, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking, comfortable clothes to keep cool and dry throughout. 

Strength Classes:

We provide free weights and equipment. However, we do encourage you to bring your own Bender ball and bands. For all strength classes, please bring an exercise mat. We also sell equipment that you can purchase when you arrive at the studio.

Cycling Classes:

If you’re new to indoor cycling, you may experience some discomfort with the seat. Bringing a gel seat or wearing padded bike shorts will help. Stiff-soled sneakers may be worn during class. However, for greater benefit, we recommend wearing cycling shoes. Our state of art Stages™ bikes accommodate SPD pedals. We also sell amazingly comfortable women’s TIEM Athletic cycling shoes in our studio and via our online store.

  • For those on a class WAIT-LIST: Be prepared to be entered into class up to 30 minutes prior to class start. If you need a longer window of notification, please remove yourself from the wait-list once that point has been reached so another participant can get into class.
  • Once a WAIT-LISTED person becomes ENROLLED: the 8 hour cancellation rules apply. No exceptions.
