Barre, like Yoga and Pilates, is a wholistic fitness modality in that it also incorporates proper breathing, encouraging a mind-body connection. This Ballet and Pilates inspired fitness class uses small hand weights, resistance bands, balls and additional equipment to take you through a full-body experience (strength, cardio and stretch). By integrating repetitive movements using these methods, you will engage the small, intrinsic muscles used to promote lean and long muscles. This program targets each area of the body, with a strong focus on the core, legs and gluteal area.
No dance experience necessary!
We have 3 types of Barre classes:
BarreFit:
BarreFit is a barre fitness class that incorporates common personal training exercises and light weights or dumbbells. It is a workout that combines the principles of Pilates and strength training. The class is performed using a ballet barre and includes exercises that target multiple muscle groups. Participants use dumbbells as added resistance to increase the challenge and intensity. The class typically includes a warm-up, a series of targeted exercises, and a cool-down. The goal is to improve strength, flexibility, and overall fitness, while promoting proper alignment and posture.
PilatesBarre:
PilatesBarre is a Pilates-inspired class that combines the Pilates method with the use of the barre. This class focuses on building strength, flexibility, and balance through low-impact exercises that target the core, arms, legs, and glutes. The class is designed to improve posture, alignment, and body awareness through controlled movements and breathing techniques. The ballet barre helps participants challenge stability and balance while still providing support. The class typically includes a warm-up, a series of targeted exercises, and a cool-down.
BalletBarre:
BalletBarre is a ballet-inspired barre fitness class that combines ballet movements with fitness exercises performed at a barre. The class includes low-impact exercises focused on building strength, flexibility, and endurance. Movements are based on ballet, such as pliés, relevés, and arabesques, performed with the support of the barre. The class is designed to improve posture, alignment, and balance, while toning and sculpting the body. Exercises are typically performed to music, and participants focus on breathing and alignment throughout. The goal is to improve overall fitness, tone muscles, reduce stress, and promote a sense of well-being.
