From the reviews
Background: Some people think I work at Sunna, but I just work out at Sunna in a full-time-job kind way lol. Been a member since before it officially opened because I found Berit (the owner) through my searching for Gaga People (one of the best classes you can take here) instructors.
If you're looking for an uplifting, positive, encouraging, mindful place to exercise your mind AND body, then look no further as Sunna is the place for you! With the bright, airy feel of the studio, to the kind and thoughtful words of every single instructor, including the very down to Earth and humble studio owner,…
Whether I’m in need of physical challenge, stillness, playful movement, or spiritual exploration, I am always met exactly where I’m at at Sunna. I feel genuine care & rapport from all the teachers & team members, & the variety of classes they offer truly can’t be found anywhere else.
I just recently moved to Minneapolis and was hoping to find a centering studio to continue my mindfulness and physical/yogic practices. Sunna came highly recommended by someone I respect and my expectations were well surpassed.
Teacher training at Sunna
Sunna comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming a barre instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — many boutique studios run a proprietary, method-specific training (Pure Barre, Bar Method, and barre3 each certify you in their own format), while others offer a more general barre certification you can teach anywhere. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — trainings often run as intensive weekend blocks or over several weeks, and most studios want you taking classes there regularly first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.
Your first barre class at Sunna
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.
