The classes here are similar to the South Mt. Pleasant Pure Barre by Whole Foods. However, this location features class times like 5:15 AM for those who wake up early (or can't sleep). There's also a 6:15 PM class many afternoons, which is convenient for those who prefer to exercise after work. Pure Barre classes are a great experience. Instructors greet you by name and encourage you during the class. The workouts are tough, but by the end, you feel accomplished and proud- and the next day, you'll feel SORE. It's a very positive environment, as exercise should be. One of my favorite things about Pure Barre is that you don't get super sweaty during the workouts, so you can run errands or grab a bite afterwards. You sweat some, but you won't have to put down towels on the car seats to drive home. Parking is plentiful and easy in the shopping center, and you're super close to stores like Walmart and post-workout snacks (Tropical Smoothie, East Bay Deli, Starbucks). If you're looking to shake up your workout routine and add an air conditioned option in the summer heat, I'd definitely recommend Pure Barre.

For first time attendees, you'll fill out a waiver at the front desk and the girl was really sweet. There are two changing stalls available and they also have clothes for sale. Bathrooms and parking were also available. The studio was bright and cheerful and there was plenty of space for us. Our instructor Jen was super supportive and I liked her teaching style - she was very positive and emphasized the importance of making this our workout. She also made sure to lay out what section of the class we were going to do next. The equipment needed is also written out at the front (for this class we used medicine balls and a bar). The class ended with a stretch on the barre and Jen asked us for our names as we put the equipment away (so nice!). Overall I had a positive experience and it was a good workout.

I love HyLo for the showers alone. The women's shower is a full room, with marble walls, and all the accoutrements you'd need--soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, towels, and even a scale. My only complaint is that they don't have makeup remover or any hair products in the bathroom when I'm getting ready after my workout, but I just bring what I need from home. The HY classes really work you in the cardio department. They all use a combination of spin bikes, rowing machines, free weights / kettlebells, ropes, TRX things (idk what they're called), and body weight to perform a lot of exercises in a short period of time with a lot of energy. Similar to what I assume some crossfit classes include. The LO classes use a special board to use your body weight and weighted poles or rubber bands to strengthen your body using your own body weight. This is most similar to pilates, barre, or yoga. All of which I'm terrible at, as I have the upper body strength of a newborn baby. Both classes totally kick my butt and make me feel like I've really worked my body hard! Highly recommend!

There is a definitely a sense of community and support. They push you hard- I get a way better full body workout here then I have at other barre studios. I love this and feel I get my money's worth/ especially if I'm taking a full 60 minute class versus the 50 minute express. On Tuesday afternoons Catherine teaches a Cardio Barre class and you do bursts of HITT workouts in addition to regular barre routines. Think jumping jacks, burpees, etc. It is a great way to get in some cardio and switch things up. The first class you try at Barre South is free and then. You can do 1 month of unlimited classes jn both locations for $50. A great way to get you hooked!

As soon as I walked in for the first time the studio was so beautiful and the people were so kind and accepting. This is truly a nonjudgemental space and going to classes here has the ability to completely turn my day around.

Their sticky sock collection is always so cute and they'll host cute events like candle making classes, glow in the dark barre, etc every once in a while. The instructors really care about class attendees and are always open to feedback and suggestions. I couldn't rave more about this place! I would encourage anyone of any level to come try any class. The vibes are inclusive, kind, and welcoming.

I took my first class this morning - I was almost late and came running in, "am I too late?" Nope said Jen, owner & barre instructor & proceeded to help me get set up. The 915 am Fri class was packed , but enough room for all, I have taken barre classes for over a year but wasn't familiar with all of the exercises but with the help of the girls next to me and some sweet correcting from Jen, I got a great workout, Honestly, I expected it to be easier than what I am used to but soon realized that the hard work was dependent on how deeply I focused & not just the class. Harder to focus when you are trying to figure out where to put your hands but I bet after a couple more classes, I will be in the Barre zone. If you live or are visiting near downtown Charleston, I highly recommend this fun studio. The only downsides to me was how crowded it was (good for them!)
