| - When I left Nashville in 2011, I told friends that I had three main goals to ease my move to Pittsburgh - one of them was to find something that I loved as much as Pure Barre. After taking classes in Nashville, I struggled to find a gym or classes that I enjoyed for the first year I was back in the 'Burgh. Then, Pure Barre Pittsburgh opened. I literally cried tears of joy when they announced the location opening. Yes, I am a Pure Barre addict. I love how it changes my body. I love how I feel after a class - and I love it even more when I am sore in some random spot b/c I know the technique is working. I love what it does for my mind - I can't focus on anything while in class but lifting my heels a little higher, tucking my hips a little tighter. I love that it is constantly a challenge and never really gets any easier...you can always go lower, tuck tighter, lift higher. I love that each class and instructor is a little different - what thigh exercises are we going to do today? Seat? Abs?
When I started classes I was out of shape and had never really enjoyed going to the gym or working out. I pushed myself through 3 PB classes in one week and haven't looked back since. That's the beauty of PB - anyone can do it. Any size, age, shape, fitness level. But do yourself a favor and don't go to just one class - personally, I think you need to try 3+ classes before you start to grasp the technique and see and feel the changes. You won't regret it.
