Been coming to this studio for a few months now and I'm absolutely loving it. As a barre newbie, I was welcomed with open arms. The teachers are motivating and always walk around making corrections when needed. Very welcoming for all levels of fitness (but be warned - the classes seemingly NEVER get easier!). Love love love calling PBDP my home studio! read more

See all

I've been a member at this location for about one year and it was one of the best decisions ever! It is such a great workout, the instructors are very intentional about providing feedback on form to ensure that everything is safe, and the community that comes along with it has been fun! read more

The classes are good. I would say it's a little less "warm and fuzzy" than other fitness boutique as far as the instructors and staff talking/getting to know you. The classes themselves are very low impact and a great stretch/core workout. It's clean inside which is important but you wipe down your own equipment after class. read more

Pure Barre Orlando | Dr. Phillips - Barre Classes Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I visited pure barre with a friend on a Sunday morning for a foundations class which is the free intro. We got there 10 minutes early to sign the paperwork. After that, we were given a "tour" of the facility (shown the studio and the back room where the equipment was), and then we were told what equipment to grab and sent to claim spots in the studio. I was a little surprised that the intro didn't include the instructor talking about any physical limitations we might have, which the email said they would do. I have an old kneecap injury, but I know how to take care of it. After walking into the studio, someone (presumably another member?) immediately approached us and started asking questions. She asked if we knew the owner, we said no because it was our first class, and she said "oh you'll meet her soon" which . . . What? Then she asked if we liked to read, to which I said yes, but then she tried to get us to join her book club and shoved her phone into my hand saying "here! Give me your number!" I felt so uncomfortable and panicked and just gave her my number. For me, working out is really not a social outlet. I like for my workouts to be solitary. I don't want anyone to look at me or talk to me except for the coach. For that glorious hour, it's just me and the exercise. This immediately scared me that workouts would be a social event, which I'm not into. Then came the class. Pure Barre uses isometric exercises which I LOVE. I did ballet for a long time, so some of these movements felt very familiar to me, but lots of them were completely new too! One thing is I wish that the coach would demonstrate every move that we were doing instead of using words to describe it. Especially during the first class, it wasn't intuitive what we were supposed to be doing. While they assured us that this would get better class to class, I'm not convinced. I think that the hands on corrections were super helpful, but I also don't think they'd be effective in a full class, especially when we don't do an exercise for long enough for the coach to get to 10+ people, so I can't imagine learning and keeping good form in this environment. Another surprise was that at the beginning of the class, our coach said she'd be offering ways to make the exercises easier or more difficult throughout. She didn't once offer a way to make an exercise easier, it was all just challenges. I found the instructor to be super peppy, and it definitely detracted from my class experience, but that's more of a personal thing. As someone who works out in the morning, I like a no frills, straightforward coach, who just times us and corrects form as necessary. After class, this team made a hard sell. They supplied us with schedules and explained the different types of classes. Personally, I likely only would've been interested in the align and empower classes, which didn't work with my schedule, so membership didn't seem like a good investment for me. My friend was looking for something a little lower speed and lower stress, so she didn't sign up either. I think we both would've been more likely to give it a shot if there weren't a 3-month commitment. The crew at pure barre called me and texted me multiple times over the next few days. They were clearly driving a hard sell, but it wasn't the right time for me. There may be a time in the future when I'm more interested in the workouts they offer, but I feel that the culture of pure barre wasn't a good fit. read more

A great class with my daughter when visiting her in the Orlando area. The staff was super attentive and the instructors were very patient and slay'd (daughters words). The music had a great beat and helped me keep my tempo and body positioning. I will definitely be back, a special shout out to Nicole for making sure everything was ready for myself and my wife. I can't wait to come again..... and be challenged!! read more

Finally after years of no exercise returned and attending Pure Barre. It has been a wonderful experience with classes and instruction..especially instructors patient and helpful. As beginner just wish there were more Foundation classes. Overall excellent!!!! read more

I've been going to Pure Barre Dr. Phillips has been 5 years and I love it! Small boutique studio where people know you by name. Excellent exercise for all body types! Instructors are very energetic and nice! Totally recommend it! read more

Full disclosure, I do not enjoy any type of physical activity, I am uncoordinated and clumsy. Truth is, I accidentally found this studio while visiting the Bundt cake store right next to it... it was like a sign from God telling me to put the cake down and go get my booty in shape. I went into the studio asked a few question about what classes they offered and how hard it truly was. The very friendly woman at the desk answered all my questions and invited me to sign up for a weeks worth of free classes, I figured I had nothing to loose, so I signed up and came back. My first class was an Intro class (still a full workout) I thought I was going to die halfway trough but seeing the other ladies keep going and listening to the instructors positive encouragement along with the great selection of music kept me motivated, at the end of class I could feel muscles I never even knew I had and couldn't wait to go back. I went back a total of 3 times during that free trial week and believe it or not this clumsy; uncoordinated lady has officially signed up. In the past I have tried cross fit, orange theory and even Zumba and nothing has worked as well for me as Pure Barre. I have never taken any class that has taken me to where this class takes me, when I am in that studio it truly is about me, I don't think about life or work, stress melts away and for once I am the priority. I am surprised to say that I am hooked and every time I walk out of class I am thinking of when my next one will be. Is it hard? It certainly is. But the teachers can modify any movement to suit you and your needs, this place has an extremely "everyone is welcome" vibe and if you stop by you will see for yourself, it's a positive place with people of all ages, shapes and sizes. If you have been thinking about joining, do yourself a favor and come in for that free class, I guarantee you won't regret it. I know I didn't read more

The experience of Pure Barre is really AWFUL!! It is not about the training content but the management and service of Pure Barre. I signed up online for the first class in 4/14 at 10:45 with my friend. We were so excited about the training. While when I'm there at 10:50, the font desk girls told me that I can't make the class since I was 5 minutes late. I am not trying to find excuse for my lateness. However they had a policy saying that if it's 5 minutes late, the customer still can join the class. While obviously, the case doesn't apply to me. After explaining to the front desk girls that I drove all the way here for an hour since my home is 20 miles away from here and there is a lot of traffic on I4. They were telling me that after I signed the paperwork, which could take at least 10 minutes, then I will be 15 minutes late for the class. I tried my best to see if there is anyway that I can skip the paperwork so that I won't be that late. Of course, they didn't let me. Maybe that's security and personal information or something really important for their business. But the whole process that you know it takes 10 minutes to finish the paperwork, as a business that provide service, why can't make the paperwork can be gone through online since you guys allows the customer to register the class online. The whole experience only tells that the employees are not even trying to help the new customer find a way to experience the training at all. All they care about is their own little rule. The rule is to be followed, but remember, you are a person that can change the rule. As a new customer, I don't even feel that I was welcomed. After wasting my whole morning on getting ready around 9, starting driving from 9:40, arriving at 10:50, and being upset for the rest of the day. Good job, Pure Barre! Only your time is time, the time of your customer doesn't matter at all, right? Good luck for your business in the way of such an awful management! read more

Pure Barre DP got me hooked on Pure Barre. I have since moved back to Philadelphia but so many of my dearest friends were made at the DP, Pure Barre Studio. I love this place and the instructors. It feels like home! read more

I definitely prefer the Bar Method! This place doesn't have as welcoming of a vibe the floor is hard and scratched up my arms pretty badly. Trust me The Bar Method is in a better location with better parking & much friendlier staff! Pure Barre is simply money hungry. Choose the Bar Method ! read more

I can't say enough good things about this location and their staff. The Pure Barre Method takes a few classes to get used to the verbal cues and positions. Once you've got it, it is addictive. Classes follow a basic pattern of warm up, arms, legs, glutes, abs, lower back and cool down stretch. However, each class has different moves so you're never doing the same exact thing every class. The flow is rigorous, fun, and let's me really focus on the work and not my to-do list. It's almost like meditation...sweaty and shakey meditation. I've taken from every instructor at this location and they each are wonderful in their own way. They have different styles but are encouraging and provide lots of support to ensure you're getting the most out of each workout. They run plenty of promotions to help keep costs in check, challenges to keep you motivated, and offer discounts to students/teachers. read more

I rarely write reviews, and this is my first one on Yelp. But I'm so excited I just HAD to write one about Pure Barre because it was love at first tuck! I purchased a Groupon for 1 month of unlimited classes. Best. Purchase. Ever. I just took my second class today and whew... what a great workout! Due to injuries, (plantar fasciitis and surgery for a labral tear in my hip) I can't take the high impact classes or run I used to in the past. Plus I just turned 50 so high impact exercises take a toll on my body. The classes at Pure Barre are challenging and my muscles screamed at me the whole time and I worked up a sweat, but the instructors (Jackie and Jennifer) are amazing! They both spent time with new people before class letting you know what to expect and they come around to help you with form if needed during class. The format of class is at a good pace so you don't have time to focus about your muscles burning. And the music is upbeat and keeps you moving. You never have time to get bored. I also love that they have inspirational quotes in the area where you store your personal items and the instructors remind you throughout class that the pain you feel is your body changing. It pushed me to keep going when I wanted to stop! The studio is clean and inviting with super cute merchandise like Pure Barre clothing and socks if you forget your own (socks are required) and even jewelry and water bottles. If you're thinking about checking out Pure Barre, definitely DO! Pure Barre is #purelove I'm hooked! read more

Loved taking a Pure Barre workout at this studio! The teacher & front desk were super friendly, the studio was clean & well laid out, and they were very welcoming to clients. In the lobby Stella & Dot was hosting a trunk show, the front desk assoc offered mimosas, and they had a wide selection of full priced & sale retail. I would certainly to this Pure Barre studio! read more

I'm a regular Pure Barre attendant in Texas, but I visited this location on vacation today. Everything about my visit was wonderful! The barrista was lovely and very sweet, and the instructor was energetic and very encouraging. I highly recommended this studio to anyone curious about trying Pure Barre. read more

I love Pure Barre. I am a member of the one at home and while so was traveling for work I bought a few classes at this location. The classes were great and the people were very friendly. However, what impressed me the most what what I found when I got home. The day after I returned home I had a handwritten note from Christian, one of the instructors whose class I had attended. What a classy way to put a cherry on top of my already awesome visit! This studio has incredible customer service and I will make sure to visit again the next time I am the area. read more

Pure Barre Orlando | Dr. Phillips - Barre Classes Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I've been going to this Pure Barre since right after it opened in 2014. I exercise a lot, and this is.one of my favorite places, not just for exercise, but in general. The teachers take the classes seriously and choreograph each one so they are always different, and they update the playlists. It is not a jokey environment, which I like because I find silliness during a barre class distracting. The teachers help anyone who is new or struggling, and the have a beginner class Sundays at 8;15. The retail offerings are very good and updated often. As far as some other comments I've read: yes, you need to be on time, you can't run in 15 minutes after the class starts. And as far as the teachers being thin / in shape - yes, because they do barre class all the time. :) read more

I love Pure Barre and was excited to find Orlando has one close to the Convention Center for travelers! The class was well attended and the teacher was enthusiastic. They offer a week of free (!) classes which I cannot recommend enough! The studio is clean, has two bathrooms (stocked with deodorant, tampons, etc), and cubbies to store your items during class. read more

Took a class here when I was on a business trip. Instructor was friendly & helpful. I did an Empower class which is a cardio based barre class. Class was challenging but the instructor was very hands-on and encouraging. Studio was sleek & clean, water fountain available, it's in a strip mall so plenty of parking spaces upfront. Highly recommend! read more

Great classes!! If you are looking to strengthen glutes, abs and hips, this is the place!!! I thought it would be an easy, squishy class and it is not. I was pleasantly surprised. I will definitely go back. read more

I love Pure Barre. The instructors take the time to get to know you and help you stay motivated during the classes. The class always keeps you moving. The music, the lighting and even the instructors' tone guides you through your work out makes it a full body and mind experience which allows me to truly eliminate the stresses from my work day. read more

This place is truly wonderful! Yes, as a previous reviewer mentioned, all of the instructors are super fit. But that doesn't deter me at all since they're all so helpful and nice! If anything, it encourages me even more as they all look so amazingly strong and healthy! I truly felt welcome when I first started here, and I'm looking forward to taking many more classes! The workout itself is awesome and the instructors and studio make the experience even better. It's challenging for sure, but it's definitely a work out that can accommodate all kinds of body types. They often run specials throughout the year for new clients and current clients so its good to check out their social media outlets to see if anything special is going on as it is a bit expensive. But the way I see it is that its a small class feel with personal attention so you always have help whenever you need it! That guidance really paid off for me when I had to fit into my wedding gown again for a second ceremony with my husband's family overseas. I lost inches fast and felt stronger! 3 months later and I'm still going strong! Definitely give it a try! Only suggestion is that parking can be a bit annoying at times, as can traffic, so make sure to plan accordingly. read more

Def worth the 20 mile drive. I was in Orlando visiting family and itching to get my workout on. Lucky for me, I have ClassPass, and Pure Barre popped up. Were there closer studios? Yes, but I've rocked enough Pure Barre studios to know they're a sure thing. First off, the place is spotless and spacious. It also has a bunch of cute workout gear, so you can get your shop on before class. There's a changing room in the waiting area and cubbies and bathrooms on the other side of the studio. Oh, and just in case you're new to barre - no shoes here. The studio is carpeted, so don't forget to bring your grippy socks. And the staff is super friendly! Now, on to getting buff. I've been around the barre block, and enjoyed the fast pace here. For the class we used weights, a ball, and a double tube. Also, there were two other instructors in the class, so we had someone to look at while the amazing Laurel walked around the room making adjustments (which were on point and private - no yelling and calling you out in front of everyone from across the room). I also liked how after we were finished using our weights, the other instructors walked around and collected them for us, which decluttered my workout space (seriously, if anyone would suffer death by exercise ball, it'd be me). Overall, my arms, seat, and thighs felt the burn. We did our abs with our backs against the wall, and since that's not something I'm used to, it'll def take a few more visits to get it right. Also, like any barre class, it takes some time to learn the cues, so I can only imagine the burn after a few more classes. Note: Guys are totally welcome here, so ladies, bring your boys to the barre! read more

This is my favorite fitness studio, exercise, and team of instructors ever. I am so grateful for this place and every day I leave feeling 10x better than when I came in. I will be hooked forever! read more

First off, let me say I am very active with Pure Barre and am a regular at the studio in Brookline, MA. I was visiting from out of town and couldn't have felt more welcome. I liked how there was a separate, more spacious room to store all of your belongings, and it was inside the workout area so no one from outside could rummage around the area (I am one of those people who likes my purse in sight at all times). This is also helpful as the area doesn't seem cramped with people at the end of class (like it can get at my home studio). The teacher (Jenna) was extremely accommodating, and I enjoyed her class. Also, they had a great selection of merchandise - wish my home studio could get more stuff! If I ever visit the area again, I'd definitely be back! read more

I am not athletic in any way and I love Pure Barre. In just a month I have noticed huge improvements in how my clothes fit and can touch my toes! The team at Pure Barre is inspiring and genuine. From the moment I walked in my first day Caroline greeted me with a smile making me feel immediately comfortable when I was more than intimidated because I am in no way the most in shape person there. Personally I went in for the free first class because I gained so much weight and got hooked! I'm eager to jump in long term and watch body lean out. The only thing that may keep me away is the price a little spendy but the team and the exercise is amazing. read more

I love that pure barre makes you feel like you are having a hard work out but that you aren't blucking up - instead you are sculpting, balancing, stretching, and tightening your body - all while listening to fun music and working out with inspiring women!!! I had the absolute best time at your location in Dr. Phillips! I am from Massachusetts and am a pure barre lover, so much so I purposely made sure that I stayed close to a Pure Barre while I was in Florida! I decided to go to this studio on my birthday - I know what you are thinking - what person in their right mind would want to work out on their birthday? Well it gets better, I even dragged my mother and my best friend a long to join me in my birthday tuck session! If you know anything about Pure Barre, celebrating at Pure Barre on your birthday is anything but crazy! And if you are a true friend, and a a great daughter, it is only fair to share your secret with your mom and close friends so you can all look great in those selfies (as well as your ledge and abs in that bikini)! Sometimes the thing that makes you feel the best is knowing that you set 1 hour aside of your 24 hour day to literally just focus on you. That is just what I needed for my birthday and that is exactly what I got! You made my birthday extra special and really made me, my mother, and best friend feel welcomed to the studio. We were greeted with smiles and had such a fabulous conversation with the entire staff, it almost felt like my pure barre from home. :-) The studio was very clean, the instructor was very clear, and I loved the stylish selection of clothing available to purchase! The parking was easy and the location itself was very easy to find as well! The pure barre class itself was awesome! It was a very challenging class that made me sweat, feel the burn, and shake! Just what I wanted on my special day! Overall, A+ and I will certainly return the next time I am in Florida! Thank you! PS you all have the best smiles ever! Also - to respond politely to the previous reviewer - Pure Barre isn't about being skinny, it is about setting your limits but learning how to get out of your comfort zone, and setting your goals and actively working towards conquering them - whether it is in one class or in 100 classes. You strive to become your version of fit, and ultimately you become a healthier and more centered person because you learn to focus on yourself not others. read more

Very clean and cute studio. The staff is very nice and helpful and the workout kicked my butt!

While on vacation I was itching for that high I get with Barre, totally missing my morning work out. I was able to escape from my kids and family for a mental health break and this Pure Barre location didn't disappoint! Everyone was wonderful, friendly and supportive. I even learned some new stuff. Can't wait to go back next year during my annual vacation! Only wish that my annual monthly membership worked outside my home location. read more

I was in town for a work trip and thought I'd squeeze in a workout (no pun intended), since I frequent the Pure Barre studios at home in Seattle. It goes without saying that Pure Barre is a highly effective (and tough!) workout. This studio is in a great, convenient location - and is a quick drive away if you're in town staying at any of the Universal Orlando hotels. Teacher was very welcoming and experienced. Highly recommend checking this out, whether you're a local or in town on vacation at the parks. read more
