Notice benefits like improved muscle definition, greater flexibility, better posture and an ability to move to the beat of the music.
We place an emphasis on slower, isometric movements fused with cardio intervals to create a type of muscle confusion (typical in barre), resulting in a strong physique.
Your classic Ballet Barre workout. Our Barre Signature class incorporates elements of Dance and Pilates where your body will be taken on a safe and thorough (sculpting) journey. Fine-tune small pulses, tiny tucks and micro movements to define muscles and burn a heap of calories. Light weights and a booty band are used to improve balance, challenge your athletic capabilities and improve core strength. No experience needed.
Your Barre Strength workout. Barre Strong is an empowering program designed to push you to your max effort for fast results. Moving to the beat of the music, you’ll build endurance in every area of your body. A 60-minute session that entails small rhythmic movements, high repetitions, heavier weights and individual booty toning sequences. Experience an athletic fitness routine.

Your Barre Cardio workout. Activate your muscles from head to toe with a powerful series that combines the precision of barre with compound exercises and high-intensity cardio bursts to transform your strength. This class has additional cardio intervals which are repeated between each targeted muscle group, and uses lighter weights, sliders and creative body weight exercises with little to no rest.
Barre is a fusion of dance, flex and strength training, and those that take our Barre classes regularly report benefits like improved muscle definition, greater flexibility and improved posture. Fitness Playground Barre classes are athletic, meaning we work around a set of 2-3 cardio intervals mixed with slow isometric movements. This creates a type of muscle confusion that builds leaner core muscles, arms, thighs and glutes, all the while slowing down that racing brain for a deeper mind & body connection.
When you arrive at your Barre class, our instructors will be waiting to greet you. Their introduction will be focused on explaining the class format, what equipment you’ll be using (if any), and will ask if you are working with any injuries or restrictions. Class formats can be tailored to wherever you’re at in your fitness journey, no one is too new or too advanced. You’ll meet an array of instructors, all bringing a unique style to their Barre classes. We do ask that you please arrive five minutes early to your class so your instructor can start on time.
We provide blocks, hand weights & mats in our studios. All that we ask is that you please bring a towel, water bottle (preferably not plastic as we’re not big on that) and a mat if you’d like to use your own. We’ll also provide the pretty studios and awesome line-up of instructors! We heavily enforce the towel policy (no towel, no play, no gym today).
Along with our serene MindBody studio, you’ll have full access to our gym facilities. These include our boutique bathrooms that are fitted out with showers, lockers, hair dryers, hair straighteners & botanical soaps.
Of course! When we reach out to book you in, don’t be afraid to tell us who you’d like to bring along to your first Barre class.
