BARREbeat - Barre Classes Near Me - Antioch, California

See all

BARRE has become my new aesthic thanks to Kandyce and BARREbeat. I've been going here consistently 3-4 times a week for the past 3 weeks and I am already down 3 pounds.... I could cry by the way because I have been working really hard to get back to my pre-baby weight. I have gotten to experience every class that is offered here and there isn't ONE where I am left disappointed or not sweating. The BARREBurn and HIIT + STrength classes are probably the hardest but the encouragement that you receive throughout the class makes you want to dig deeper and push harder. Not only have I felt stronger physically and in my breathing but my mindset has definitely shifted to never give up or push to do one more crunch or squat. I absolutely love it here. Everyone is so nice and friendly too. Kandyce is always checking in, fixing my posture and form and making sure I'm maximizing my workout. This place is also VERY affordable which is important when I thinking about accessibility to specialized workout places! I've done ClubPilates and iLoveKickboxing (which are in the same plaza) and BARREbeat takes the cake, by a landslide both in pricing and energy. I am very committed to this place and can't wait to give you all another update soon read more

The Classes and availability is always really great at this studio. It's clean and the music they play is also really good. The only thing I would recommend to the owner is to have a conversation with your instructors about professionalism. There have been several times that some of their instructors will openly talk negatively about the other instructors IN FRONT of members before, and after classes. (they name names, along with cursing and laughing) it just makes the environment negative and somewhat draining, not to mention awkward since members are likely to take multiple classes from different trainers. read more

I did Barre many moons ago in San Mateo and absolutely loved it. As is the story for most everyone, the last few years have been tough both physically and mentally. Last July I made a commitment to myself to prioritize time for myself...and I knew I wanted to go back to Barre. I was SO NERVOUS to start. It's nothing like the gym where you can walk in and walk out and be invisible if you want to be. I knew I'd be front and center as a new girl lol. I am always nervous to put myself out there, especially when I hadn't worked out in years. Well, here I am, 7 months later. Any bit of nervousness left the moment I walked into class. Every single person had a smile on their face. I was welcomed and supported and pushed but never in a way that made me feel guilty if I missed a class or needed to take a break for whatever reason. When I missed several weeks around the holidays, I came back in January like I had never left. No feelings of judgement or embarrassment like i've had from other places. And I NEED that. I need to know that MY best is enough. And it always is here. I am so grateful for every single one of these instructors and my 'classmates' They have enriched my life and given me my confidence back and that is something money cannot buy. love y'all! read more

Great place, great workout, great environment. Enjoy each class I take. Usually go 3-5 times a week. Would recommend to anyone trying to get into shape and have fun. read more

1 class, many calories burned!!! I have taken multiple classes here and each time the instructors are amazing! They give you alternate moves if you are not able to do the move that they're doing, due to an injury or maybe even flexibility. The instructors are fun, positive and encouraging. The facility is always kept clean with a great supply of cleaning products for after each class read more

I can't even begin to describe how much I love this place. I have been MIA from the gym/working out scene for a couple of years. I knew I wanted to try something completely different, step out of my comfort zone, challenge myself in other ways, and focus more on my core. I signed up a month ago. I literally have gone to a class every day, most of the time twice a day. There is such a variety of classes: Barre, Yoga, Dance, Hiit/Bootcamp, and soon Bolly Barre. Also, for all levels: advanced, intermediate, and beginners. The teachers have different styles of teaching, which I love! So your body doesn't get use to same moves. I have met so many people. It really is like a huge family! Something I have never experienced before. Barrebeat has definitely exceeded my expectations. read more

I have worked with Kandyce and Stan Jones for designing and pulling permit on their dance studio and they are one of my favorite clients that I ever had and happy to call them friends than client. They were very carful about having a nice and safe place that people could relax and improve them self here. I highly recommend this family and the Barre Beat, they are nice, professional and want the best for their costumers. I find out all of these while we were working on the studio design development. read more

Do not sign a contract that does not protect you and provide you with an exit clause. Today I tried, again, to cancel/modify my membership amicably with Barrebeat studio. I joined based on the teachers that were presented as those that would be teaching. It was those teachers wherein my confidence rested that led me to feel confident in signing their contract. After calling three times and sending an email without a response back, it finally took an impromptu 1-1 meeting with Rebecca, their manager, to discuss why it was that I needed to cancel or modify terms. Rebecca's way to address me was far from ideal and more to the point her behavior was rude, aggressive, abrasive, in my face and condescending. The respect that I showed her was far from reciprocated. Instead, while attempting to converse with her, I determined that she is an individual who is incapable of having an adult conversation. She is inept at listening to and recognizing the needs of another person and is so obsessed with controlling the conversation that looking beyond and realizing the long-term damage that she is creating is neither advantageous to the studio nor her own image. I had only to mention a multitude of times that I am trying to resolve and end this in an amicable manner, yet it fell on deaf ears. Her style of talking in circles, blatantly lying, is her modus operandi that has been lurking behind a facade of a supposed decent person. When my husband tried to intervene over the phone by reaching out to Kandyce due to my inability to handle confrontations, Kandyce proceeded to blatantly hand over the phone when she decided that she did not want to talk to him. She basically hung up on him. An example of how professionalism at this studio is exceedingly lacking. As an ex-professional dancer, I noticed that Kandyce's primary focus is to emphasize cardio in anything and everything as opposed to comprehending what overall fitness is and factoring in the well-being of members. This lends her to teaching barre paced too quickly, with notably poor form and technique, moves that are dangerously executed, which without a doubt will (and has) led to injuries. Money is the driving force at Barrebeat, not one's well-being. Most people in any of Kandyce's classes, unfortunately, don't understand this. They don't know what barre should be like if done correctly and she takes advantage of their ignorance. For this reason, after I attended a couple of her classes after joining I never retook one again. Instead, I consistently attended classes with knowledgeable and legitimately trained teachers (who have since left or were expeditiously and brutally let go). Approximately 1 month after I joined, Kandyce began treating the studio as her own personal sorority with teachers literally walking around on eggshells. The studio turned into the "Kandyce Show," with a myriad of Kandyce pictures and videos everywhere. Student progress was not the focus. Standing in the shadows and watching her actively and purposefully break people's spirits, encourage gossip and spread lies about those who worked for her, supported her, and even members was exceedingly hard to watch. It became apparent to me that this was not a healthy place for anyone to go if they wanted to better themselves physically, spiritually and mentally, especially me. Her ego led her to fire those for whom provided true credibility to her studio and those who she felt upstaged her. The few teachers that remain that are exceptional are undermined, marginalized, are not promoted and receive little if any credit for the members that solely come to the studio for their classes. Fortunately, during this time I was presented with an opportunity to better my dancing and train under teachers in a genuinely positive environment. As my husband tried to deal with the financial implications, I was trying to cope with my chaotic schedule. Barrebeat became the line item that either needed to be eliminated altogether or cut in half. Barrebeat refused to enter into a real discussion with me about my contract, or even consider a modification that would not have me waste money for classes I wouldn't be attending as well as not expose myself to a damaging environment. I left bullied, attacked, disrespected, hurt and disappointed in myself for ever having put myself in such a toxic situation. Barrebeat can reply with their party line and continue to lie to the public about just how incredible they are while persisting in pulling the lambs wool over the eyes of their members. If my post does anything at all, I want anyone who reads this to think about all aspects of this studio. Please look past the sales pitch, fake smiles and know that you deserve to be heard, respected and valued. Do not make the same mistake I made, sign a predatory contract that holds you, hostage, even after the original spirit of the agreement has changed (the inclusion of highly trained teachers). read more

My workout routine of HIIT has taken over my body and I decided to try BARRE for the first time. I needed the same intensity of a workout, but to trick my body with something different and getting the same results. BARRE BURNS! Let me tell you! Kandyce, the owner of BARRE taught my Saturday class and she is absolutely amazing. She is on tempo, beat and pushes us ladies and gents to our limits. I love how the studio offers Pilates , yoga and some dance workouts! Nice and clean facilities with a cute daycare incorporated while busy moms get there time! The best place I have been coming back for more. read more

I was in town for the week and went on Barre Beat's website to check out their classes. I read each class description and most said "grip socks required" which is fine but the class I wanted to do was "BarreSculpt" which was a slower-paced class/some longer holds and stretching which was exactly what I needed. When I showed up the owner told me about the grip socks and I said no I don't have them because the class doesn't require them. She responds, "All our classes require them. We have them available for purchase." Then proceeds to show me another webpage. I showed her the webpage of the class descriptions. She said, "oh yeah well I guess we need to update that." Umm...well update it then. The owner was nice enough but I am a personal trainer as well as a business owner and you don't handle situations with "oh well, sorry." You work with the client because your end goal is recruiting clients. "Hey, here's a pair of grip socks. Check out our class." Club Pilates in Pleasanton does this because they *want* your business. Since I work in Brentwood I would have been interested in being a regular client of theirs but unfortunately I have no interest. This is just about the *principle of business* and wasting a potential client's time, not about socks. read more

Very fun workout great clean Atmosphere. Everyone are nice and very knowledgeable. Great music and the have early morning classes

I am new to Barre-Beat. The feeling of getting a full body workout from the classes that I have attended have left me wanting for more. I'm so pumped about the variety of classes that BARREBeat offers and cannot wait to attend the next class tomorrow morning at 06:00am. I'm also amazed and humbled by the instructors so far because they have such amazing energy and have incredible posture-physically and personally. I'm so glad that I was open minded to trying out a new form of exercise and studio. For the gentlemen reading this and who are planning on trying BARREBeat out, be ready for the challenge. read more

I joined BARREbeat a few months ago and I can't say enough about how much I love this studio! They offer a full range of classes, from barre to yoga to pilates to cardio dance....and to others I can't wait to try! You'll feel the burn (and shaking!) on your legs, bottom, arms and core, but will walk out of class feeling stronger, energized and even relaxed (after yoga). This studio is a one stop shop! The instructors are knowledgeable, friendly and always encouraging. Support staff are kind and welcoming. It's a great tribe to be a part of! read more

After years of struggling to get "those last 5 lbs" off, I finally did. Thanks to BARREbeat and the instructors there, I found myself not caring about my weight but about having fun while working out! They have so many different classes from, barre, yoga, to cardio dance! Each instructor has their own personal flare on the class, so you know what to expect but you work different muscles and body parts everyday! I burned 700 calories (per Apple Watch) in just one 60 minute cardio dance class! I couldn't believe it! And the icing on the cake; I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF THAT CLASS! Hands down, best "fusion" studio in Contra Costa..not to mention the studio is beautifully styled and clean! Oh...did I mention they provide childcare? read more

All of the staff I interacted with were upbeat and nice. The instructors are very helpful and answered all my questions. Signing in for the class was super easy and took about 30 seconds. They have a tablet you swipe that you have arrived and you walk into the class. Will be going back for more classes. read more

I had been looking for a studio that mixes Barre and the beat of the Music into the classes! This studio nailed that fusion! I joined the studio in September and I look forward to every class each week. I had previously researched that the studio owner Kandyce has a degree in kinesiology and an extensive dance background making me more inclined to try this place out and after doing so, I highly recommend this welcoming fun studio with highly trained instructors. read more
