Such a great studio! Very clean and welcoming. Abby was an amazing instructor!! She was enthusiastic, funny and inspiring.

I love this studio. I have tried a few others and there is no other. Here we are truly treated as family. The workouts are hard and fun. My physical therapist Recommned this place. I am 65 years old and I need a place gentle enough while giving me a great work out. read more

I attended a free running clinic and barre class here. They were SO friendly and welcoming there. Sometimes it can be awkward going to a studio for the first time and they made it so comfortable. I will definitely be going back to take a class. It was a beautiful studio as well. read more

OMG! Had an amazing workout!!! For those of you who are curious, Barre3 is where ballet barre meets yoga and pilates. A friend of mine (Amy) referred me to this place. The studio just opened up on June 1st, 2015. The first week they are offering free classes. I signed up for two and look forward to my 2nd session!!! I have never taken or done Pilates or Yoga, so I was quite nervous going in. The staff was VERY friendly and helpful. They told me that no experience is required, so I was very relieved. For newbies, make sure to arrive 15 minutes early so that they can show you around (you also fill out a waiver), bring a water bottle and wear yoga like attire. The studio offers complimentary filtered water. They also provide hand towels in the studio if you need one. Props are already included (core ball, light weights, yoga strap, pilates mat, and ballet barre. You can wear socks, but highly recommend Toesox (which they sell at the studio) if you want to purchase. It's like wearing open toe socks. The facility does have changing rooms (your own privacy), lockers and childcare (there is a fee - not sure of pricing. Must make reservasations). Natalie (my instructor) was very attentive and kind. She went around the room introducing herself before the class. She asks if we have any health issues (back/shoulders problems, etc), which I thought was smart. The class is 60 minutes which we worked all the muscles groups, especially with our core. We started off warming up, then did barre work, weights, core ball, then cool down). I can see why people love Barre classes because it builds long, lean muscles, strong core, increases stamina, increases flexibility and develops muscle balance leading to a well-proportioned body with less risk for injury. After my workout, I left feeling less stress and tensed. Also the hour flew by so quickly! Great music and the room is very spacious (capacity holds 28 clients). Info on pricing (from web): New Client - 3 for $30 (one time only) Love barre3? Commit and save with our monthly membership option. Click the "Barre3 Membership" link above to learn more.

Especially at this place!! They are fantastic!! read more

barre3 - Montgomery - Barre Classes Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Barre3 is a barre, pilates, and yoga fusion studio in Montgomery. Barre3 is a bit tucked away in a shopping center so look closely for it. The studio space is warm and beautiful. It is clean, brightly lit, and pleasing to the eye. There is plenty of space available for changing and cubbie and locker storage for belongings. There is a childcare area and two bathrooms. One bathroom has a changing room and appears to be handicap accessible. The fitness studio has cork floors and the workout is done with bare feet (or socks if you desire). The instructors are very friendly and welcoming. They are happy to explain any part of the process and are careful to ask about injuries prior to class. The class itself is excellent. The music has a great beat and is motivating. The instructor does the class along with you providing periodic coaching and modification suggestions. Barre3 has a little bit more of a cardio component than other barre classes I have attended. The isometric holds are a cornerstone of the class but when combined with dynamic movements it really makes you sweat. The class environment is very welcoming. The instructor does the class with you which makes it a bit less intimidating than most barre classes where the instructors walk around correcting students. You do lose some corrections this way but I found the environment to be a little more relaxing than most barre classes. Movements in this class are generally low impact- this does not mean they are easy by any means though. The workout was very hard, but doable and I will definitely be back. read more

This place is wonderful! A workout like I've never experienced. It's not cardio heavy, but man are you sore after. Lots of precise, intentional movement meant to target specific muscle groups. The teachers were so supportive and accommodating. It leant to a welcoming environment that made working out here easy to settle into. I found the workout (a fusion of barre, plates, and yoga) challenging but fulfilling. I will return. read more

barre3 - Montgomery - Barre Classes Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I have never been a "workout class" person, I lack the skill and coordination required to jump over those plastic workout benches and keep up with dance skills at a fast pace. I end up in the back of class laughing at myself (which is a great workout for abs!). On June 1st, per the recommendation of a friend, I signed up for a class via the MindBody Online website, but was skeptical about a barre workout.. When I first walked in, Natalie (the owner) and the ladies at the front desk greeted me. She led a brief tour around the studio and showed us where to pick up equipment we would need for class. First impressions: Barre3 was open, clean, and very welcoming. There are lockers to store your things, a filtered water station, clean bathrooms, an area for child-care, and some apparel for sale. I walked into the class area and noticed the entire front wall was a window. This was the perfect amount of natural light and kept the feeling of an open setting. Fortunately, the studio is in a small mall area, so there aren't many passers-by if you are concerned about that. Before class began, Natalie asked about any prior injuries that people had, so that she could offer modifications, making sure that I could work "smarter not harder." By the end of the class, I was a changed woman! The class was challenging, I certainly sweat more than I expected, and I was sore for a few days after. I walked out feeling so refreshed that I went home and promptly signed up for 3 more classes that week. Since my week at Barre3, I have had the opportunity to attend barre classes throughout the city and have yet to be as impressed as I was at Barre3. The class size at Barre3 didn't make me worry about if I was going to accidentally kick or sweat on someone, the combination of cardio to barre class appealed to my skill level, and the workouts varied enough that it never felt redundant. Even something as simple as room temperature didn't make me question if I had accidentally signed up for Hot Barre. Overall, Barre3 has challenged my expectations for what a strong workout can look like. I recommend it to anyone that I can, but most of all I can't wait to head back for another session at the barre. read more

Barre3 is such a great workout! The studio is beautiful and the instructors are very helpful in adjusting you to get into the right move. Highly recommend! read more

Barre3 is my new favorite go-to workout. After being a cardio/running junkie my entire life, barre3 brings a nice balance to my work outs and have given me a stronger base for my running- through my core strength and legs. The building itself is clean and the staff are SO friendly! Each class has different workouts targeting the same muscle groups so it's never boring. The instructors are very knowledgable and can provide modifications for any ability level or based on any need (ex: I have tight hip flexors from running- each time they feel too tight they have a modification ready for me!) The yoga and pilates incorporated throughout the workout helps create a strong core and stretches you out so you feel ENERGIZED the rest of the day, not depleted like most work outs! I highly encourage you to stop by and try a work out- you won't regret it! PS- added perk- barre3.com provides online workouts as a member and TONS of free (and awesome) recipes. read more

I'm not graceful or really even well coordinated (I'm sorry instructor molly, i'm always doing the wrong leg!) but I am absolutely head over heels for Barre3. The Barre3 class format is a really enjoyable combination of pilates, yoga and barre with lots of strength, balance and stretching (set to great music). Every class is intensely challenging, but I always leave relaxed, refreshed and walking a bit taller. You can expect to have your legs shaking and sweat pooling as you make your way through the workout. To be clear, these classes are what you make of it and they offer a ton of modifications for just about every possible physical need (even for new moms). You'll often hear instructors saying to push yourself to your personal edge which is a recognition that it could be different for everyone. This class is not one size fits all and anyone can find a great workout. The actual studio is bright, airy and VERY clean. The mats used in class are so clean that the first time I had to go into child's pose on one, all I could think about is how nice the mat smelled (they wipe down the mats after each class!).You'll also notice almost immediately that this is the type of studio that is very community oriented and the staff, instructors and owner quickly remember your name. From day 1, I found Barre3 to have such a welcoming atmosphere. Also convenient is that childcare is offered for a small fee for the morning classes. Tonight was my 7th class after having tried my first few classes while my friend was training to become an instructor. I loved it so much I immediately bought the one month unlimited pass. If you are looking for a really well balanced workout that will leave you with lots of energy, then Barre3 is perfect for you! read more

This new studio provides an excellent workout that is fit for all ages, no matter the fitness level. The owner and instructors are more than accommodating to make adjustments within the workout to match your fitness needs, as well as physical needs. Got joint issues? No problem. There are ways to meet those needs through no impact modifications. Just had a baby? No problem. Again the modifications within the workout will meet your postpartum needs. Just getting back into working out or never worked out before? No problem. The instructors know several ways to make you feel more than comfortable at YOUR fitness level. Ultimately, the goal of the barre3 workout is to assist each class member to make each class to be YOUR OWN workout. The online classes are fantastic, as well. In fact, I have just returned from a camping trip where I was able to workout through the online classes on my smart phone, right there behind my camper. Make barre3 your own, and take your health and fitness to the next level. read more

If you're looking for a new kind of workout routine, an addition to your current routine, or are completely new to working out, then barre3 is a great place to accomplish these things. I always had been intimidated by anything "barre" this past year since it is something pretty unfamiliar to the average person, and its definition sounds like a mixture of yoga meets pilates meets ballet (confusing?). I went to my first barre3 class while I was in Greenville, SC and discovered that this was the extra "kick in the butt" workout I needed to supplement my weekly running routine. I was excited to find out about the barre3 Cincinnati location (conveniently located in the cute village of Montgomery) after my first experience in Greenville. There was a 4 class for $39 Groupon and I gave it a go. The first several classes I felt extremely awkward in that I wasn't sure if I was doing the moves right, but I soon got over that. The instructors are very helpful and will help you add adjustments to make the moves more adjustable to you (not necessarily easier!). They are always giving you modifications of the moves that will still work the muscles you are aiming to fatigue. Heck, pregnant ladies come to barre3, so you know it can be manageable for almost anyone! Barre3's classes normally flow in the following pattern: start out with some warmups (get the muscles heated, do some yoga-ish stretching), move into leg work, combo work, arms, core, then stretch it out at the end. I find the leg work to be the most challenging, and your muscles are definitely shaking at the end of each rep! They tell you to embrace those shakes, because that means you are making those important changes to your body, which I can definitely attest to. The one takeaway is to make each move your own, and make sure you are working the muscles intended. You can make this workout really easy or really hard on yourself, depending on how far you want to push yourself. That's what I do love about this type of workout; even though I run almost 25 miles a week and think I'm "in-shape", this workout is HARD. For those runners out there: this is a great supplemental workout to your routine. I go to a barre3 class at least once a week to help strengthen my other leg muscles, hip flexors, core, and my gluteus maximus. I have definitely noticed my body getting stronger in places I don't strengthen as much as I would like to with running. My core is noticeably stronger and harder and I can push myself faster on my runs. Strong hip flexors and gluteus maximus muscles are going to make a world of a difference on your runs as well. When I leave this class, I feel like I've just enhanced my running performance that week, and I know that I am rounding out my workout routine to touch every muscle of my body. It's also good to note that you can buy individual class packages if you are like me and would only go 1-2 times a week maximum to supplement your current workout routine. They also have full membership packages where you pay a fee to go an unlimited amount of times a month. Do the math to figure out your desired class frequency, and which class package works best for you. It is also good to note that dudes are more than welcome to come as well! Although these classes are mostly filled with positive-minded women, there are plenty of guys who attend them as well. I am very happy that I joined barre3, and will continue to add this workout to my regular routine. I believe that this is especially a great type of workout for those who are just starting a new fitness regimen. Barre3 makes everyone feel comfortable at any level they are at, and it focuses a lot on mind over matter. Having a positive mentality while working out will help you stick with it and associate it with a positive outcome. I wish they would have more "fun" supplemental events at the Montgomery location. They have added a "Tea Tuesday" which is awesome, where they have a few different types of complimentary teas for you to have after class. I think if they keep that up, along with adding more engaging activities, they would have more people would come and associate their workout as a time to be fully engaged with everyone there, and not just a time to go to a workout class and leave. This will allow people to feel more connected and more likely to keep coming to the classes. I am full supporter of barre3 and feel strongly about what it has done for both my physical and mental health. Don't feel discouraged if you are shaky in the beginning, because those shakes will help make you stronger down the line! read more

I found Barre3 when they were doing a fundraiser for the American Heart Association, a wonderful cause, which is close to my heart. During my first class i was embarrassed and laughing at how weak I felt even though I'm active and run on a regular basis. The next day I knew Barre would be my new workout obsession, as muscles which I have never felt before were sore. The instructors are all very nice and welcoming! They give me lots of personal attention and gentle corrections, when needed, to get the most out of each move and prevent injury. They emphasize listening to your own body and modifications are offered to help people who have knee/back/shoulder pain. I am continually impressed by the knowledge of anatomy n physiology they reference. These classes are tough for me, however the classes are filled with people of all fitness levels. The studio is clean and front desk staff are friendly. I really appreciate that they don't use paper products and encourage use of reusable water bottles. I really enjoy Barre3, and feel like I can already see and feel good changes in my body even though I have only done it a few weeks. read more

After a long work week barre3 is the best way to start my weekend off right. The 60 minute class helps combat my week long office slump. During the workout I am able to move my shoulders back into their natural position, so that afterwards I am able to stand and walk taller. Not only does barre3 help improve my posture, but it also helps strengthen my core. A stronger core gives me confidence in my other passions such as running, weight lifting, and playing with my pup. The stronger muscles in my core allow me to keep a good running form longer. Also, a stronger back allows me to lift and lower the weights in a safe fluid motion. More importantly the greatest strength barre3 Montgomery has to offer would be its staff and tight knit community. The front desk girls are always welcoming and happy to answer any questions I may have. The instructors are positive and seem to really enjoy connecting with everybody, as well as challenging each person. The 60 minutes fly by and I always feel so great when I walk out the door. All in all, I would say barre3 receives a 5 out of 5 every time and I'm excited to see how it will grow in the Cincinnati area. read more

Barre3 is easily the highlight of my day. The energy there is awesome, and so are the instructors. You feel that Barre3 is more than just a workout studio, but that you're part of a community. I love that each class is slightly different from the day before, and the results I'm getting! I feel stronger and more confident in my own skin! read more
