Barreworks studio offers "barre fitness" classes that are based on a popular exercise originating from New York and Los Angeles. Classes here promise dancer-inspired workouts that combine "fitness training, core conditioning, yoga and pilates into one dynamic class" with an emphasis on using a ballet barre. The novelty of using a ballet barre for the duration of the class is what initially attracts me to try a class at the studio.
When I arrive at Barreworks, I'm immediately impressed by how pristine and clean the studio is. I feel like I'm standing in the main hallway of a real ballet studio. The front reception area is spacious and uncluttered, with a few ballet-inspired accessories like toe-grip socks available for purchase.
There are two main studios for the Barreworks and yoga classes, as well as a spinning room. The change rooms, like the reception area, are equally impressive. They're clean, spacious, and are fully equipped with showers, lockers, and free use of towels, which makes getting ready for work after an early class entirely feasible.
