There are two sides to our subscriptions. One can be accessed by anyone and is intended to make Barre workouts available to you outside of our schedule. After the...

29 Apr My first barre class

Today one of my friends sent me an article. A great article actually with great insight about a clients first barre class. It has inspired me to TRY to remember mine. My first barre class was at the Lotte Berk Method in the summer of 1999. I had just graduated from college and moved to Manhattan to fulfill all my dreams (what I didn't realize it was this job that would do that). I was nervous and hadn't danced in months, so I wasn't sure I was physically prepared to take class, but literally thought all the walking I've added since...

10 Apr BarSculpt Playlists

When you do our videos on our website do you play music? Or are you one of our BarSculpt (barre) teachers? Have you been utilizing the Playlists we've added to our League portion of the website. If so.. some extra instruction is needed on HOW to use or make a playlist for BarSculpt classes. We want to start with something upbeat. The first song should be three and half to four minutes and will get you from the cardio boost through front body. The Second song (also upbeat) will take you all the way through reverse push ups (aka tricep dips)....

08 Mar Should I do BarSculpt to lose weight?

Should I do BarSculpt to lose weight? This question is hard to answer. There are many reasons why one should workout while trying to lose weight. Also HOW much weight has a big effect on the answer as well. If weight loss is your goal, BarSculpt alone will not be your magic answer. Absolutely moving is an important piece to weight loss, but it is ONLY part of the complicated puzzle. So as an easy answer, NO! That truly is a hard answer to write, mainly because I have seen many clients be very successful with BarSculpt as a major...

11 Oct Things You Should Know About Classes this Early October

First, you may have noticed that we have made a change to our class terminology in our retail area. You will no longer see the words 'drop in' associated with any of our class purchase options. You will instead find 'Single BarSculpt/Mat Class' and 'Single Reformer Class.' This is in an effort to create a more clear path from purchase to practice. Meaning, we are encouraging you to sign up in advance for your classes. This not only guarantees you a spot in class, but makes you more likely to attend, encourages others to attend, and makes your arrival to class smoother....

Wow! What an amazing start to the second half of 2016.

04 Apr Personal Training Top Five by Lacey

My top five reasons why we should all add personal training to our routines, even if we're already going to classes. 1) Private (personal) training is the best way to ensure proper form and technique. While we do our very best to ensure we are providing you with this during your classes, there is no substitute for having a person by your side providing you immediate feedback based on your own body. Your instructor pays attention and cues both your mind and your body making sure you are doing each exercise correctly and as effectively as possible. It is advice you can take with you, as well. Because every body is different, we all need help...
