Barre blends the grace of ballet, the core strength of Pilates, and the mindful movement of yoga into a full-body, low-impact workout. Each class breaks down lower- and upper-body exercises into precise components, focusing on isometric movements and controlled repetition. By avoiding momentum, you’ll build strength, stability, and muscle awareness. Upper-body sequences are included and can be performed with or without weights.
You’ll also explore floor barre, an excellent option for those wanting to minimize pressure on the joints. Moving the workout to the mat shifts the emphasis to pelvic stability, proper turnout, and detailed leg position work.
In many ways, floor barre can be even more challenging—without the ability to lean on the barre, you must rely solely on your own strength and technique. This focus not only improves alignment but also prepares the body for more efficient and supported standing barre work.
