Barre Attack is a dynamic fusion of Pilates, Ballet and Fitness!
It’s a fun, all body workout using classic Ballet Barre exercises that attack those dreaded problem areas — legs, butt, thighs and arms – making them firm, toned and strong.
Not only is Barre Attack fun, you can expect to burn up to 500 calories per class! Prior dance or pilates experience is not needed to enjoy the benefits of Barre Attack. You’ll feel stronger, more flexible and coordinated, with every class!
What you Get:
The benefits of Pilates – including body conditioning, flexibility, long, lean muscles.
The benefits of Cardio – getting your heart pumping so you’re burning calories and making your heart stronger, reducing risk of heart issues, reducing stress and getting you fit.
& the benefits Ballet – including posture, alignment, balance.
The actual structure of a class can vary but you can expect the following:
Barre Sections: Here, you’ll be shown ballet positions like 1st position, 2nd position and plié. You’ll generally have one hand on the barre and complete exercises that give your legs and butt a serious workout.
Elastic Sections: Large elastic bands are looped over the Barre, which you use for resistance. Facing away from the Barre you might punch out while holding the elastic, or hold a lunge while doing an upper body rotation. All of this will strengthen your core, arms and legs. Many find it’s a great way to de-stress.
Cardio Sections: With music flowing, different types of cardio intervals are dispersed through the class. This will really help with your overall fitness, burning calories and will get the blood flowing.
