From the reviews

Every workout is different and SO fun! All of the instructors are very encouraging! I love the barre and bike classes and I am excited about the new SWEAT class and Full Body Strength class! Yoga is wonderful as well! They offer different class times so it is easy to find something that fits your schedule.

Everything you have heard about BEATS is TRUE. I was like “there’s no way a place can be so supportive and inclusive of ALL shapes and sizes” but this place really is! From the desk staff, to instructors, to even other members, I have ONLY felt supported on my personal fitness and strength journey.

Beats is the BEST place to get your sweat on! All the instructors are top notch! They know how to push, encourage and cheer you on during every workout! Beats is not only a place to work out it is also a place you feel welcome at any stage of your fitness journey! I will not go anywhere else!

★★★★★ — Amy, Oct 2024

I took a full body class with Nikki and let me tell you it was worth the sweat.These ladies are so kind and push you to be a better version of yourself no matter what size you are. I was definitely struggling and everybody was cheering me on. This is the type of place you come to feel empowered. Book the class!

Your first barre class at BEATS Fitness

New to barre? Almost everyone is their first time, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: barre blends small isometric holds and tiny pulses at a ballet barre with light weights and mat work — it's low-impact and joint-friendly, but it works muscles you didn't know you had, so a little shaking in your legs is the point, not a problem. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: fitted leggings and a top you can move in — nothing baggy, so the instructor can see your form. Grip socks: most barre studios require grip socks — bring a pair or check whether they sell them at the front desk; the grippy soles keep you steady during the pulses. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Barre is low-impact, so it suits most bodies and fitness levels — but if you're pregnant or working around an injury, check with a doctor and let your instructor know so they can offer modifications.
