From the reviews
I love Pure Barre Lakeview! It is the one and only place I work out- the multiple class formats fulfill all of my fitness needs. The owners are super genuine and kind, as are the instructors and others who work there. The people who attend are awesome as well and many have become friends over time.
Kerry is an icon 10/10 experience every time! From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed and completely taken care of. The studio is always clean, well-maintained, and feels very safe. The staff and instructors are incredibly kind, professional, and supportive you can tell they genuinely care.
I’ve been attending classes at Pure Barre - Lakeview for almost a month and have loved my experience so far! All of the instructors and staff are incredibly welcoming, helpful, and knowledgeable. The studio is in a great location for me and makes it easy to get to classes.
Pure Barre is hands down the best workout I’ve ever done! The classes are always challenging yet fun, and I’ve seen real results. The instructors are incredibly motivating and knowledgeable, and the owner, Kali Benz, is so welcoming and passionate. I absolutely love being part of this community!
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.
