From the reviews

I’d been a PB member elsewhere before and I can only say that this has been my best experience with a PB studio by far! I’ve been a member at this studio since the new management took over last year. My instructors and most of the staffs remember my name and I really feel the sense of community here.

★★★★★ — Agata, Jun 2024

I've been a member at this studio for over a year and I love it! All of the staff are amazing, friendly, and always help assisting with your form throughout class. They offer a few different class formats and make it easy to schedule classes through their app.

★★★★★ — Alexa, Jun 2024

I visited this studio while visiting Chicago for a long weekend earlier this month. First of all, the studio is so well maintained, clean, and has plenty of space to sit and feel comfortable. I took a classic class with Angel and loved it. Angel was very welcoming and knowledgeable.

★★★★★ — Wendy, May 2024

This studio has become my home away from home! Every instructor takes the time to learn your name and make you feel welcomed and motivated throughout class. The pure barre workouts are challenging but the ladies at Streeterville PB make each workout fun and fly by!

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.
