Barre3 opened in 2008 and it's more than just an exercise class - Barre3 is a whole new way of life. Everybody's talking about it and we wanted to see what the buzz was all about!
What Is Barre3?
Barre3 is the brain child of Sadie and Chris Lincoln, it is an innovative studio workout and a whole new culture of health and wellbeing. Their mission is to make the world a healthier and happier place. Wondering what the 3 is all about? The Barre3 philosophy is all about exercise, nourishment and connecting with your community. Chris and Sadie believe that these three combined will lead to a more balanced and happy life. Sounds pretty good to us!Is It Like Yoga?
Barre3 is inspired by yoga, Pilates and ballet barre. You have an instructor to lead you through specific sequences of movements to tone, lengthen and strengthen all your major muscle groups whilst raising your heart rate! [blockquote quote="What's unique about Barre3 is that we give you a deep muscle burn and satisfying endorphin high without wreaking havoc on your body. You'll be challenged and you'll feel it the next day but you'll be pain free and you'll get the most amazing energy boost." name="Master Trainer, Lisa Schale-Drake"]Can I Have A Sneak Preview Before I Try It?
Yes! To top things off, I rounded up a couple of the girls from the office and we took part in a 10 minute Barre3 workout. This proves that you can still lead a super busy lifestyle and still have time to fit in a short workout every day. This is what Alicia thought... [blockquote quote="I really enjoyed it. I'm not someone who really enjoys big classes and the gym so the online classes are a great way of exercising at home. Plus it's actually fun, I'd definitely try it again!" name="Alicia - UNiDAYS®"] The great thing about Barre3 is the fact that they're all for modification of their movements. There's no more struggling and suffering your way through a move that you can't physically do. "No pain, no gain" is simply not a saying within a Barre3 studio and I think this is so refreshing! Barre3 believes that fitness is not a 'one size fits all' approach, check out this blog post for more information on modifications. There are tonnes of different workouts and they are uploading new ones all the time. Whether you're want a short 10 minute total body workout or a revitalizing 60 minute workout or just something in between, there'll definitely be something for you. You can do it anywhere and you don't need any props for a lot of the workouts. Plus, as a bonus, you get access to tons of delicious recipes curated by Barre3's founder Sadie.
