Barre is a dynamic and engaging movement class with high energy. Inspired by a mix of ballet, yoga, Pilates and HIIT, Barre combines elements of each of these exercises into a single muscle burning workout.
Despite the name suggesting that this is a dance class, no prior dance or ballet background is required. In a typical Barre class at Sound CBR, you will find that it is all about muscle endurance through high reps, which results in a complete body workout.
Equipment in classes can vary from the use of a barre or equivalent, to resistance bands, hand weights or simply relying on your own body weight. Either way, all equipment is provided all you need to do is bring along a positive attitude and be ready to work!
