WHAT IS BARRE?
LOW IMPACT, YET CHALLENGING!
During a BARRE class, you will do a combination of postures inspired by ballet and other disciplines like yoga and Pilates. The barre is used as a prop to balance while doing exercises that focus on isometric strength training combined with high reps of small range-of-motion movements.
The class incorporates various props to bring the burn during all those reps, as well as gliding discs for targeted core work.
