A little about us

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.

One studio. Multiple ways to move.

You shouldn't need four studios to have a balanced routine - all formats are all levels.

FAQs

Your 1st Class

Bring socks! Socks are required. Grip socks are recommended.
*Bring a mat if you are taking a yoga class, or we have them for rent for $2.

How do I access the building?

1. There is a silver keypad to the left of the door to the building.
2. Press the arrow and select The Barre Code
3. Press the green phone button and wait to be buzzed in!

Arrival Time

WE DO NOT HAVE A GRACE PERIOD. The instructors lock the doors and start class on time, and there may not be someone at the desk at all times who can let you in.
The studio opens 15 minutes before class starts.
We recommend guests who are familiar with the studio arrive a minimum of 5 minutes before class to give yourself enough time to collect your props and get situated.
New clients should arrive at least 10-15 minutes before class. 

*We will have new clients complete some first timer info at the front desk and show you around the studio. You'll get your locker, your props, and make your way to class - and all of this takes time!

Are socks required?

Socks are required in the studio at all times. For all yoga classes, once you get to your mat, you may remove your socks.
