barre3

The whole experience at barre3 Allentown is amazing. From when you walk in, the ladies that work there are friendly and attentive to the instructor who makes sure your class is invigorating, tailored to each person, and fun. I’m not even a full member yet– just taking several classes to get used to it. and I can already tell you I’m addicted to the full body workout barre3 gives me plus the whole atmosphere of the studio.

This was a really fun class! I went to a barre3 class with Lauren today. I was definitely challenged throughout the work out! I really like that the instructor gave modification and challenge options as we went through the poses and workouts. This was different than other barre classes that I’ve been to — rather than focus on arms and move on, we did arms but then some options in the other poses/​circuits later on also included arms. My muscles were definitely fatigued but that’s what we were going for! I still liked it though!
If you’re new to barre and considering this class it’s definitely worth a try! The workouts don’t look as tough as they are but you’ll feel the burn shortly after you’ve just started pulsing! I think what I like most about barre in general is that it’s low impact — this class definitely stayed true to that but I still had a little sweat going on as I went through the poses. Your muscles will shake but that’s good and you know that it’s working!
When I walked in, the receptionist was polite and cheerful and made it a point to introduce me to the instructor because it was my first. I really liked that — then the instructor knew to keep an eye on me if I was struggling and she knew my name (love it when they let you and the whole class know you’re doing a great job). The studio was super clean and it looked they had a childcare option so you don’t have to schedule around a babysitter to get your workout in! Also the studio has big windows that overlook the parking lot. The sunlight was really nice as we were working out. So glad a barre studio is finally in the Lehigh Valley!
