Barre


 

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!
