OpenBarre

Sometimes there just aren't enough stars. For instance, you find out there's a barre studio less than a mile from your house. So you find the website and see that not only is there a schedule that includes evening classes, but the price for a drop in class is so reasonable that you read it three times because you can't quite believe it. Already there's no excuse not to take a class, so you go. The studio is clean and provides mats and other equipment. The instructor is welcoming and friendly when you walk in. She remains friendly even when she's encouraging your indolent muscle to WORK and you're wondering if your legs or arms might drop off. She's also very focused on the class, checking everyone, tailoring the work out to the abilities of the individual, offering unobtrusive corrections throughout, and reminding you to drink water. It's weird to say, but the 60 minute class is NOT easy, but it goes by REALLY quickly. So like I said, not enough stars.

I love OpenBarre. I’ve been going for about a year and it keeps getting better. Every class is different so you never get sick of it. It’s always challenging in the best way. Lauren and all of the instructors are awesome. You can’t go wrong with any of the classes. The classes are affordable and that’s a great perk.
