From the reviews

I absolutely LOVE this studio location! Walking into a new space can feel intimidating, but everyone here is so welcoming, which is helpful. I'm nearing my 100th class, so this has clearly become my home for working out. The instructors are fantastic.

Pure Barre Lincoln Park is THE BEST! A top tier barre studio promoting community, strength, and confidence. A perfect blend of strength, flexibility, and endurance. I can see the positive changes in my body after just a few classes - kind of addicting to keep going and seeing yourself get stronger!

Your first barre class at Pure 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.

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.
