No matter your level of skill or experience, you’ll gain a lot from joining BBL.
What is a Barre workout?
Barre was created by the ballerina Lotte Berk after an injury, Berk got the idea of combining her ballet barre routine with her rehabilitative therapy.
Benefits you experience from a barre class:
-
full body workout (strengthen your muscles particularly core, arms, thighs, glutes and pelvic floor)
-
low impact
-
flexibility
-
increased bone density
-
posture
-
contribute to your overall fitness and mental health
Barre also focuses on high reps of small range movements, but the real difference between Barre and other workouts are the isometric movements you usually perform holding our body still while you contract specific muscles, until you shake and feel the burn!
It's also a good cross-training option to pair with other exercises because it strengthens the muscles without being too stressful on the body.
