I never thought I'd come back after the first class, but with the encouragement and support of so many great instructors and fellow classmates, this has turned out to be a favorite in my exercise/fitness routine, I do mix in other types of fitness classes at other studios (e.g. megareformer, spinning), and can safely say that PureBarre has become a mainstay for me. Oh, and also, the owner of Newton, Wellesley, Dedham and Hingham is a very special person who runs a great business. Thank you Katie.

I tried the 30 min intro class for new clients and had a good experience. Jess checked us in and explained the parts of the reformer and the flow of the class. On the reformer there are 2 heavy, 2 medium, and 1 light spring used for different exercises. A typical class is 50 minutes and they have flow 1, 1.5, and 2 for varying difficulties. The class is a full body workout with foot work, bridges, core work, arms, and ended with a stretch. I really liked that you'll get breath movement cued for each exercise and that you can take it at your own pace. The straps were easy to take off and on with the pegs and the headrest is adjustable. They have early morning to evening class times, so plenty of availability. Today's the last day they are offering 20% memberships and retail, so if you're looking for a new workout I'd definitely try them out.

Olga is the best physical therapist in Boston. Her wealth of…read moreknowledge about the body and her determination to get to the source of your pain are unparalleled in her profession. This woman is never not working - when it came to my personal treatment, I know she spent many personal, non-billable hours researching on her own. Her work and business is the passion that fuels her, sunup to sundown - there is no one you would rather have by your side as you rehabilitate. I personally enjoy my time with Olga, not only because of her successful treatment of me, but because she is such an inspiring individual - she emigrated to the United States as a young woman, learned English, and put herself through school - no small feat with a second language to boot!  Olga is energetic, driven, kind and absolutely unwavering in her excellent standard of care for her patients. Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend.

I've been to both the Boston and Wellesley locations (depending on if I want to take the T, or if it's not rush hour it's easy to get to Wellesley), and I have to say that the Wellesley location is esthetically much nicer than the Boston location, which isn't surprising since it's bound to be more spacious and open. This is a beautiful studio with a separate sitting area, mirrors, large windows, and hard wood floors. I've had a number of instructors and they have all been great. It's nice that they can add their own spin on the workout, and while they work your whole body, some definitely have an emphasis on legs or abs. The 45 minutes go by FAST since you're constantly switching up the movement. It's hard and you're pretty much destined to be sore the next day, but definitely not in a bad way. The workouts are all able to be modified so these classes are good for just about anyone. If you have never been on a megareformer I definitely recommend checking it out! They look daunting at first but the instructors talk you through each position and whatnot, so it's not like you're looking around wondering what's going on.

He used to be a gymnast I believe, and he is very good at shaping every workout for personal needs. He could have a class with a bodybuilder, professional dancer, someone with scoliosis, and a pregnant lady, and he can adapt the same exercise for each persons personal physical needs. He pushes you, while not making anything unsafe. There are also advanced classes, which he does not allow people to take who are not physically ready. It is his studio, as well as he ass on the line if someone got hurt, and if he thinks you are not ready for the advanced classes, he will say it. That is a very good quality, coming from a collegiate athlete. Both the pilates and TRX classes are good for male and female. The only reason I don't put 5 stars is the difficulty getting into the studio. From Washington st, turn up Holden st. The first "parking lot / parking spaces" off the street on the right, you are there. It is upstairs. Enjoy the great workouts!
