What Our Clients Say

Real stories straight from Google Reviews

"I’ve been going to Barre Code for three years now and it’s truly changed my life. Before starting barre code I had never worked out regularly and honestly didn’t even know where to begin. From day one, the instructors made me feel comfortable, supported, and motivated."

Sneak Peak...

We teach badass classes.

Since 2010, we've been going beyond the barre with our all-in-one program that features our most popular classes: Barre (combination of Pilates and Ballet exercises) and Brawl® (our cardio dance/kickboxing class.)

We offer a variety of fitness classes designed to help you get a balanced workout. From low-impact strength to cardio kickboxing - we've got you covered! Sweat to the beat under neon lights to music that drives you, led by the most passionate instructors in the industry.

Barre

The heart of The Barre Code and our most popular class. Pulse and shake in our signature class that combines many elements of Pilates and Ballet, engaging in small, isometric movements and holds with compound movements.

In this 50-minute, low impact class, you’ll work your entire body, focusing on your seat (our term for your glutes), thighs, core, and upper body. Our constantly changing routines and large variety of props ensure you’ll be challenged in every class.

More about barre...

Brawl®

A fan favorite recognized by SELF Magazine as “one of the best workouts in the country,” Brawl® will take you through 50 minutes of powerful cardio kickboxing sequences set to music that drives you.

Between two longer cardio sequences, your instructor will guide you through an active recovery consisting of low-impact strength exercises to help you become a stronger Brawler.

This class challenges both your mind and body in ways you won’t experience anywhere else.

8's + 10's

Lifting heavier weights is the perfect complement to our Barre and Brawl® classes. Lift 8lb & 10lb dumbbells while cycling through three circuits of functional, full-body exercises to improve everyday mobility and strength. This low-impact class will help you master technique, reduce injury, and improve overall performance.

Lift + HIIT

Lift and sweat in our Bootcamp style class that improves cardiovascular conditioning and functional strength using heavy weights, resistance bands, and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). You’ll work at your own pace while your instructor leads you through a variety of circuits to build muscle, increase bone density, and improve your ability to perform functional, everyday movements like hip hinges, squats, and lunges.

Sculpt + Flow

MATS REQUIRED. Think Yoga meets our Barre & Strength classes. Sculpt your body in 50-minutes while moving to the music! This Power Yoga class harmonizes Vinyasa yoga with endurance-enhancing weight training. Students can expect to energize their bodies by flowing through sun salutations while building strength and toning up with props and body weight sequences. Many of the non-yoga moves, you have seen in our Barre classes.

Barre Form (Free)

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, our complimentary Barre Form session provides personalized guidance to help you achieve your fitness goals. Our experienced instructors will offer hands-on adjustments and share tips on posture, alignment, and technique. This is a great opportunity to ask questions you don't have the opportunity to ask during our 50 minute classes, meet fellow barre enthusiasts, and enhance your workout experience. Plus, you'll leave feeling more confident and ready to tackle your next class!

We focus on 4 sections of class, thigh, seat, core and upper body. You will see two of these sections with each Form class so you can really hone in on specific moves.

Barre Form will be strategically placed on the schedule before a 50-minute barre class so you might jump right into class after to work with your new knowledge!

Spaces are limited to ensure we can give everyone the attention they need. Don't miss out on this chance to elevate your barre practice—reserve your spot today and let's move together towards better health and wellness!
