From the reviews
For a girl who never liked to work out. Never liked the gym and always felt awkward. Open Barre is the best! I love the variety of classes offered from classic to hiit to hot barre. Open Barre offers a welcoming, friendly environment.
Amazing space for a great workout! I started taking Ashley’s class when I was 3 months postpartum with my youngest and her class has helped improve my overall wellbeing, mental health and has given my children a great example of prioritizing taking care of our bodies.
I can't say enough good things about Open Barre in Cheshire, Connecticut! This studio is a true gem. The workouts are incredibly effective, especially for core strength and postpartum recovery. Each class leaves me feeling empowered and rejuvenated.
Open Barre classes are fun AND challenging. Ashley possesses a wealth of knowledge and myriad certifications, including postpartum and prenatal, which has benefitted me greatly. Her teaching style is fantastic - the perfect mix of upbeat, motivating and zen.
Your first barre class at Open Barre
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.
