Barre at BAC

Barre Classes in Portland, OR

Barre is a hybrid workout class unlike any other. Combining pilates, dance, yoga, and strength agility training, the isometric movements our highly trained instructors incorporate help you hyper-focus on specific muscle groups so you tighten and tone those more difficult areas! Our barre classes incorporate ballet barre and classic dance moves like plies alongside deep stretching. Joining a barre class means that you will also focus on high reps of small-range movements.

Barre class might actually push you to your limits, but yields a high return— you can expect to gain a lot by jumping head-first into your class. By regularly challenging your body during barre class, you’ll begin to notice improved muscle definition, greater flexibility, and better posture.

Barre classes are inspired by ballet, but you don’t have to have any skills to successfully attend class. That being said, you may not be familiar with the terms used in class. Keep tuned into everything the instructor says so you don’t miss out on the names of the exercises you’re doing and the instructions.

Here at Bethany Athletic Club we offer a variety of Barre classes in our group fitness room. Find our current group fitness class schedule and class descriptions here.
