First time taking bar method Christine. the class starts right on time. The music is great. Teacher is great at providing alternate positions to challenge yourself or make it easier. There are shower towels, deodorant, blow dryer, lockers, water to purchase clothing to purchase tissues and sanitizer. challenging for legs and abs, but also you're not breaking crazy sweat. I'm definitely go back. It's challenging in a good class in between when you are sore. read more

Had so much fun attending a barre class in Brooklyn, on their seventh anniversary to boot! The instructors were so welcoming and I was glad to get a chance to work out during my trip! Did a new move I haven't yet encountered. Best all, I was able to spin the wheel and win a free week for my daughter! So fun!! read more

Signed up for the Bar Method during one of their new client special offers and quickly fell in love. The classes are challenging and fun and all of the staff always bring a positive energy that makes you feel so encouraged. I usually dread going to workout classes but I genuinely look forward to these classes and always leave feeling satisfied :) read more

I always forget to take photos of workout classes and studios! However, I've been making my rounds via classpass and finally went to try the bar method! The studio is upstairs which confused me a bit when I got there, but I kind of loved it becase they had windows in the studio you can see out of. When I arrived the staff was super welcoming and showed me around and soon it was time for the class. I did the 45 minute express class and it was a brittney spears themed one. very fun! the music isn't super loud or anything but i enjoyed a class with familiar tunes. the class itself wasn't super hard in comparison to pure barre (my only other reference for a barre class) but i quite enjoyed the emphasis on stretching. this is the type of class you could probably take every day and it wouldnt be too harsh on your body! read more

I've been a loyal client for almost 8 years. Bar Method Williamsburg is more than just a work out studio, it is a community. Beautiful space, friendly staff and amazing classes. I've tried other studios in the neighborhood and sets The Bar Method apart is the instructors. They are very knowledgeable, take the time to know you by name and give lots of individual attention during classes. read more

I am someone that lives a very active lifestyle and I love fitness classes. I had mixed feelings about this studio. The studio itself was nice and props were in good condition but I thought the class was way overcrowded. Locker rooms could have benefited from a few more amenities like facial wipes etc. I really appreciated that they had socks you could borrow because having done barre before I was expecting bare feet were okay and when I found out socks were required I was like ugh great I'm going to have to pay for them. The workout itself was decent. I'm definitely used to more cardio with barre classes and I definitely get a better workout overall with Barre3. There were certain muscle groups and focuses that I thought were completely overlooked (I don't think we did a single bicep exercise, for example). It was a totally solid use of ClassPass credits but I can't imagine I'll return. read more

I've been going to bar method consistently for the past few months and have seen great results! My arms and abs are so much more toned. I love how comprehensive the workout is and I appreciate that there's some time devoted to stretching. With my schedule, I usually end up taking classes with Aubrey, Erica, or Caitlin and the three of them are GREAT. They have really fun energy, are always positive and encouraging, and you can tell that they put a lot of effort into switching things up and making each class interesting. Would highly recommend! read more

I went to my first barre class earlier this year and it has quickly become my favorite part of the day whenever I go. Beyond the obvious physical benefits I've had, I find it super cathartic. I work from home so the movement, the environment, and the energy is much needed and appreciated. Friendly staff, excellent instructors read more

Absolutely love this branch of Bare Method. All of the staff are super welcoming and I genuinely enjoy the workout. I would highly recommend this to all! read more

I love Bar Method! My dear instructors, happy energy of the place, cool loft esthetic. I'm so glad that a year ago I decided to join this community! Highly recommend! read more

Still the best in Williamsburg. Excellent, seasoned teachers and a crop of new teachers who are really great as well.

I joined this studio 3 months ago and I have developed so much strength since. Classes are so effective and make me feel very healthy and physically strong. I have never committed to any type of gym/physical activity in the past. I have tried various studios, but this is the first time I find myself committed. I love all the instructors that teach in the studio. It is a very nice environment to spend an hour of your day completely dedicated to yourself. Definitely recommend! read more

Absolutely love this studio! Have been coming for over 3mos and has improved my strength by miles! 10/10 :)

I've been coming here for a little over a year and I love barre so much! I feel so much stronger and flexible. Classes are always a great workout and gives me energy after. My favorite is barre cardio read more

As of today I'm 741 classes in and I love The Bar Method more and more each day. The instructors, staff and space just make it so welcoming to go to everyday . I feel strong , fit and it truly is my happy place. read more

Love this studio so much! The teachers are warm, and the workout is effective yet approachable. It's my favorite workout in NYC!

Took one class with ClassPass and was sold. Signed up for the unlimited membership the next week. I've been consistently going and can see the results! Every instructor makes each class fun and new. The studio, the different classes, the instructors, the staff, everything is amazing about The Bar Method. read more

This is probably one of my favorite studio spaces for barre . The latest BM space has the characteristic clean lines and enough studio room to lift , tuck and pretzel your way to your best form yet. Each class is designed to work you out just enough to change your body from your core and leave you feeling awesome !!! read more

My favorite workout in NYC! Lovely and motivating instructors. Haven't regretted the unlimited pass even once

I just love the Bar Method Williamsburg. I was an avid member at the Soho location then migrated to Brooklyn earlier this year when Soho closed down. The Williamsburg studio has been such a refreshing and uplifting blessing and sanctuary for me. I still find the workout challenging (even after taking classes for 10 years!), motivating, sustainable and a really great, spirit and bootie-lifting and muscle sculpting workout. The Bar Method strives for proper form for an effective workout and optimal results by giving hands on and verbal instruction. This is so important for safety and results! I'm pregnant now and the instructors are all so caring and help me to modify the workout safely. You can feel the love and care that went into building this strong, diverse, inspiring and friendly community. From the warm staff to awesome instructors (Jose has become an endearing favorite of mine! I also love Danielle, Paige, Erica.. all the instructors are incredible. These are just a few of the rock stars at Williamsburg) the locker room, lounge area and details, the Brooklyn studios aim to build community, strong and inspired individuals and become more than just another workout studio in NYC. I love them and appreciate them so much. Thank you, Bar Method Williamsburg!! read more

Gorgeous studio with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Love that it's in the north wburg area since I'm in greenpoint and studios are limited. I've been seeing results with my consistency and look forward to going! Only left 4 stars instead of 5 because I wouldn't mind some nice shower products for the bathrooms. I like to get ready for work after I take morning classes and the products tend to irritate my skin because they're bulk generic products. I wouldn't mind a nicer brand like some of the other studios are doing :) Other than that I am very happy with bar method williamsburg! read more

I really enjoy going to Bar Method Williamsburg, I have had great experiences with other barre studios in the city but I really love the friendly instructors and staff, the soft carpet, and the size and ambiance of the studio. I really enjoyed a live DJ class led by the owner Katie as well! I have only done 9 classes so far and have already seen results. It is a little more ballet-focused than other barre places which I like. I also prefer that you are using more of your body weight and less equipment (using mostly foam mats and supportive mats as opposed to balls, tubes, resistance bands, etc.) The new client special is one of the best things you can do for your body and mental health! If you're on the fence about barre, try this studio for 30 days and you'll become addicted to feeling stronger after every class. If you need to head to work after class, they have showers, towels, and a blow-dryer. read more

I just joined 'The Bar Method' last week and I'm loving it. The space, the teachers and the way it makes you feel after is worth the $$$ It's truly the best part of my part of my day! read more

The fabulous Bar Method crew has done it again. I LOVE this studio. I just checked out the grand-opening and am happy to report: -friendly and welcoming staff -kick-ass instructors -fab new studio with dope carpeting (I wouldn't mention this if it wasn't about a bar studio!) -super nice locker room and amenities I'm closer to the Cobble Hill location but I will def be visiting this one! read more

First time at this studio and it was a terrific experience. Morgan was an excellent instructor, she made sure you had the correct form and impressively knew everyone's name in class. Some moves were intense, as expected but excellent overall. I'd definitely return. read more

Beautiful studio, great workout, wonderful instructors. I never thought I would like an exercise class but finally decided to try a few different class options. I'm in my late 30s, work from home on a computer all day, don't like running, always canceled the times I planned to go to the gym.... and wanted to avoid a precipitous decline in my health as I near 40.... This is the first thing I've found that I like and feel like I can stick to (it's been 8-10 months). It's expensive per class... unless you have a membership (unlimited) and go often, at which point the per class price is more than cut in half. You have to make a reservation and there are late cancel fees and no-show fees-- which I really like because it means I make a reservation and then I actually go. For me, the pace of the class and the music changes make the 45-60 minutes go really fast. There is a whole range of body types, fitness levels and abilities represented. If you're a serious athlete, you won't feel held back. And if you're someone who has never done sports or exercised consistently, you won't feel left behind. (I do think it takes at least a few classes to feel like you know what's going on in general though. So it's good to get a package to give it a fair shot.) The instructors give lots of individualized attention with verbal feedback and hands-on adjustment. They strike a really nice balance between being motivating and being patient and encouraging. I have limited experience with exercise classes but feel like it's probably rare to get so much individualized help in a class setting. The instructors are also really good at picking out which corrections to give based on your level and what it's realistic for you to focus on. (And they offer to answer questions after class.) If you're pregnant me have injuries-- they'll suggest modifications for you. I have been to several classes at two other (Pure Barre) studios and those were fine. But I often wonder if people didn't like Pure Barre, if they may still like Bar Method. It's similar, but Everything here is a little bit better: the lighting is better, the carpet is softer, the instructors give more and better hands-on and verbal corrections (which seem better informed by knowledge of physiology and preventing injury). I hesitated to leave a review because I selfishly like when classes are small and that I've never had trouble booking a class last minute that I wanted to attend. But I finally caved as there's never been a class that truly felt overcrowded and I would love to see this studio get even more business and for more sports-averse, PE-haters like me to find that bar method works for them too. read more

So, they ran a promotion in December that you would receive a $10 credit if you left a positive yelp review. They never mentioned it expired. I tried to use it yesterday and they said I couldn't. I get that it expired, but if a coupon expired (also a Yelp review never expires, I still left the review), wouldn't the email mention it? It was only printed on the actual coupon that was attached to the email and I never happened to look at the actual coupon. I just saw the email communication saying I received a 10 dollar credit. I am a club member, which means I have unlimited classes per month. I go 1-2 times per day and absolutely love all the instructors. I have never had a negative experience in terms of the actual workout or customer service before, but the front desk rep (her name is Charlsie) who spoke to me pretty rudely about this coupon being expired was anything but positive. Again, I come to the studio almost everyday and she treated me like she was doing me a favor when a) the email with the coupon didn't state that there was an expiration date and b) I left a *positive* Yelp review that was still positive. She then only let me use it on full-priced socks. She also didn't apply my Club Bar Method discount, which is 10% off of any apparel item if you are a club member. She said this wasn't possible since they were doing it out of courtesy being that the coupon expired and I was previously told it was expired... I am trying to speak to someone else at the studio as it seems to be a wrong move to not apply the benefit of the 10% off because I am a member that pays a monthly fee! I don't understand. This interaction was super disappointing as someone who spends a lot of time, energy and money at the studio on a daily basis. I am updating my review, but want to reiterate that the instructors, workout and studio space are excellent. However, after being a member for two months, I don't feel like I am valued from a customer service standpoint which is conflicting. Thankfully Yelp reviews can be updated for this reason! read more

Still going here, now as a full member, 4-5 days per week! I've seen really amazing results and have never felt stronger (or looked better) in my life! The staff are all so sweet and interested in all of the clients who attend the classes, myself included. It feels like another home at this point :) Despite how frequently I go, I continue to feel regularly challenged and interested in the classes, which are consistent enough so that I know what to expect, and variable enough to never be bored. I highly recommend taking classes here- it's well worth it. read more

Came 5 min late and was charged $20 + not let into class, told I was supposed to come extra early to sign waivers, was never communicated that information. Waste of time and money. Poor customer service read more

Tried this place with Class Pass twice and I'm still not sold. I really wanted to like barre as I like ballet, Pilates, yoga, running, rowing and even.. the overpriced Tracy Anderson method. The place is clean and modern and the facility is great. The staff is very helpful and welcoming. While barre isn't my thing, I enjoyed the experience trying out this place! read more

This studio is amazing- spacious, clean & close to transportation. The instructors are excellent and know what they're doing. Barre is hard but I would 1000% recommend this for people looking for a change in their routine & body's I am a work in progress but the instructors at this studio make us work for it and still have fun while we're in class. I hate to say this but "thank me later ;)" read more

Cute space and great instructors! Felt very welcome from my first class. Definitely recommend!

The team at Bar Method Williamsburg took me from hobbling in agony (slipped disc) to dancing outta there. I will be forever grateful to their compassionate, gentle attention in getting me back on my feet. Thanks, gang - you're the best! read more

I started out at The Bar Method almost a year ago, because a friend had told me about one of the awesome new client specials, and now I'm totally hooked! I have taken barre classes at other studios and Bar Method is by far my favorite. The classes are challenging, and the instructors are very knowledgable. I'm always so impressed by all the corrections they are able to give to make sure everyone is in their best and safest form. The instructors are also very friendly and bring a great energy to the class. The more you go, the more they are able to push you to reaching new personal goals. You will definitely see results in your body, strength and flexibility if you go regularly! read more

Professional and knowledgeable staff. Great adjustments and high energy workouts! Have already begun seeing results

Awesome studio and instructors- love coming here and getting away from the chaos for a good workout!

This is one of my favorite places to spend my weekend mornings and my after work "happy hour". The facility is immaculate and the teachers are amazing. They help and guide you through class so you can get the most from your workout. I've taken classes in consecutive days and each day there is a slight variation so the workout never gets old. read more

This Bar Method studio is a really welcome addition to the area. There is zero attitude. The instructors make a point to know everyone's name and give guidance throughout the class. I've taken a ton of bar classes at different studios and what makes the classes work is when the instructors are clear and vocal about how to do the exercises properly. And here they do! It's also a great looking space and a really calming atmosphere. I'm really psyched about this place. read more

I took a class here that was free for Classpass members with Steffi and the owner, Katie, was there as well. I loved the studio, it was very calming and the carpet was very soft. I've taken barre at pure and exhale before, and this was by far my favorite class. Both Steffi and Katie were helpful, but not overbearing. I will definitely be back! read more

This past summer I visited Brooklyn and stayed in Williamsburg. Now that I've officially moved from Cali I wanted to share some love with one of the places that made me feel so welcome. I've always wanted to get into a regimen of barre classes so looked into a few studios in the area. I found a Groupon special for 1 month at the Bar Method and it ended up being a great experience! The classes were suitable for all levels and the exercises themselves were designed to tone, strengthen, and build endurance in a safe and effective way. I definitely saw results! read more
