I went to my first Barre3 class today!
The studio is fresh, relaxing, and huge! The instructors are all super friendly and helpful. I was an avid Pure Barre client for about 2 years until I moved to CLE and Barre hadn't caught on here yet. We have a few studios here now and you should def give Barre3 a try.
I found Barre3 to be more relaxing and have less cardio than Pure Barre. It wasn't quite as in my face and didn't work me quite as hard. These are not bad things - it depends on what you are looking for. I would like the instructors to talk more about body positioning and make more adjustments so clients avoid injuries and get the most out of their work out.
They have a great view while you work out, they provide water, and clean your mats. All in all, it was a great experience and I plan on buying a monthly package!
