I've come for a few classes through ClassPass and absolutely loved them all. Great instructors, friendly front desk staff, clean facilities and good music. The classes are split between the 2nd and 3rd floor - if you're not sure what room to go to, see the front desk on the 3rd floor! read more

If I could give Energy Barre 10 stars, I would. The instructors are all excellent. I have yet to take a class I didn't enjoy. The environment is supportive and has good energy. The prices are also very fair compared to competitors. I also really like that equipment is mostly set up for us when we walk into the room. It's a small gesture that makes a big difference. So happy I found them! read more

Your commitment to promoting health and well-being is fantastic, and I am grateful for the positive impact it has had on my life. As someone who enjoys staying active and engaged in fitness, I have found your programs to be not only beneficial but also enjoyable. The passion and expertise of your instructors have made each session a rewarding experience, and I look forward to every opportunity to participate. In addition to the physical benefits, the community aspect of Energy Bar's programs has been invaluable. The supportive environment you've fostered has made exercise not only a routine but a social and uplifting experience. Best of luck as you enter your 11th year, with many more to come. Best wishes, Lisa Iacoviello read more

I just started going to The Energy Barre this month. I've been to 3 of their locations. I have been so impressed with all the instructors so far. They are all super nice, friendly and positive! The studios are all super clean and have minimalistic decor (they have have Christmas light strands for ambiance which I think is super cute!) I highly recommend this place and their other locations as well. read more

The best energy here - great variety in classes from knowledgeable instructors. Always leave class feeling the positive energy from the space & fellow classmates. So happy I found such an amazing studio read more

I came back to The Energy Barre after a few years off, had a hard time finding time with the kids. But they have nice early classes that I can get to before everyone gets up for the day. This place is as great as I remember it, the instructors are all so welcoming and so very helpful, as well as all the other people that come to class everyone is so friendly. So many great classes to take part in, great packages to buy for the classes and you can come at any level and still feel great. So happy to be back and part of this great Energy!!! read more

Energy barre is great! Starting coming to Energy Barre this year and love the Sweat classes! Brienne and Katie are the best

I absolutely love this barre studio! The variety of classes, from heated to regular, keeps me engaged and challenged. The instructors are incredibly friendly, energetic and motivating - making every session awesome. Can't recommend it enough!!! read more

I love it here!! The classes are incredible and are held throughout the entire day (~515am-730/8pm). My favorite classes are the ones that are in a heated room. The instructors are wonderful and encourage you to go at your own pace (which I appreciate since I'm just starting to workout again)! If you're thinking of trying this place out- do it. You won't regret it. read more

I love this barre studio. I have been here 3 times now and want to keep going back. The studio is very clean and comfortable and the staff is willing to help out and answer any questions you may have. The classes are challenging and you will feel like you got a great workout. So far, the 3 classes I've been to have been different and I am enjoying the variety. read more

Just attended a virtual class with Kelli called "Livestream Cardio Dance." Really wonderful instruction and selection of music. Kelli ended up not being able to pick which songs to play so we ended up going 15 minutes over, but absolutely no complaints here! She brought energy the whole time and provided good alternative movements if you couldn't do jumping jacks or other hopping. Positive and encouraging instruction. Definitely recommend! If I lived closer to the studio (even in the same state) I would 100% be a regular here for this Friday afternoon pump-up class. Great way to start the weekend! read more

The Energy Barre is hands down the best Barre studio on the north shore. I have been taking Barre classes since 2010 and I loved it so much that I became an instructor. Part of my training was to try all the barre studios in the area so I have experienced many of them. Im a huge fan of Julianna. She never disappoints. She delivers an amazing workout and she fits so much into the class. She is infectiously enthusiastic and doesn't let you waste one minute. Her classes are very challenging but fun and no matter how in shape you are, you will still be sore the next day. All of the Beverly instructors that Ive had for classes have been fun and I have had only great experiences. You will never get bored. The women are super supportive and friendly including the clients. The studio is just lovely and you feel right at home. read more

I found The Energy Barre through the Mind and Body app. I have ClassPass and one day I couldn't find any classes near me, within the time range I was looking for and the type of workout I wanted, so I logged into Mind and Body and searched for studios around me and that's when I found The Energy Barre. Right in the middle of Stoneham on the 4th floor is this bright, airy, positive and friendly studio! I am so happy to have found this barre studio. I've taken barre many times and this is by far the best workout I've had. So far I've taken EB Barre and Abs Back Express classes and am looking forward to EB Burn! The workouts are challenging yet exciting because the instructors have amazing energy and they are always super encouraging. Signing up for a class is easy, you can click through their website and be directed to their schedule and sign up with ease. I'm not a Mom but I think it's so awesome that EB offers free childcare so Moms can workout with peace of mind. If you are in the Medford/Winchester/Stoneham/Malden/Melrose area this studio is definitely worth checking out. There is always parking in Stoheham (there's a lot across the street and ample street parking) and in the mornings it's the opposite of traffic. The Energy Barre is not part of ClassPass but that's not stopping me from attending. I always look forward to my next class! read more

Where do I begin with how much I love EB?! First, the studio is amazing. It's in a bright and airy fourth floor loft in Stoneham center. There is a free parking lot across the street. The studio is warm and inviting and so are the instructors. They are all great, but I especially love taking class with Liz M, Liz B, Julianna, and Stephanie. There are classes throughout the day from early morning to late evening, which is hard to find at other studios. The instructors at EB play popular music and they are very motivating. They focus a lot on proper body alignment and breathing which I think is very important. Each instructor's class is different as they add their personal style. I have done barre at many other locations including Pure Barre and other privately owned studios, and EB is by FAR the most challenging. I have seen great results! read more

The first time I walked into EB in Stoneham at 6am on a Saturday I felt like I never ever wanted to leave. I'd exchanged a few emails with some questions about the class I was signed up for beforehand, and had been impressed with the fast and friendly responses I'd gotten. So I drove out to Stoneham (from Brookline -- because I LOVE the fact they have an early Saturday class; they're really hard to find in the city and as someone who works 6 days a week, I still want to get my morning workout in on Saturdays), got a little turned around but quickly found the free parking lot right next door, and hopped on the elevator up to the 4th floor. The space is gorgeous. There's this huge, cozy, warm waiting room with changing rooms and some pleasantly (read: not too in your face) displayed retail and chairs and everything. A huge rug. There are motivational/feel good posters all over the place -- seriously I would pay to just hang out and drink a cup of coffee I brewed in my own apartment in this space. There's some exposed beam work and big windows and it feels so amazingly New England and chic I LOVE it. Oh, sorry -- I haven't even gotten to the workout yet. So I'll be honest, I've only done the EB Matte Remix, but I loved it and how solid the class is only says great things about the other classes. The Matte Remix class is without the barre, with a couple cardio bursts intermixed in -- which is nice, helps you feel awake and energized and get your heart rate up just enough to keep the push going. This morning's class was some cardio, a bunch of lunges, some glute/ham work lying down (my favorite kind), some core work. Beth teaches the Saturday morning class and she's super friendly, super sweet, and is really really great at working the room, demoing/doing the class along with you -- and major props to the fact she manages to do the class AND call out instructions and cues AND keep you motivated. I can barely do one of those things at a time, but she's a ball of energy that it does it all. read more

I usually go to the one in Beverly but I did try this studio a few weeks ago and I had an awesome time! The workout was new and the instructor was so motivating! Every class I have taken I come out feeling so good and motivated. The different work out routines that are consistently being changed up to keep it exciting and it always feels like such a great workout! read more

If you're feeling unsure about trying Barre, please...enter this incredible safe haven! I cannot express how excited I was to try Barre! Before walking in, I expected to feel a little intimidated since I have never been to a Barre class before, but felt completely at ease when Kristin Cronin welcomed me which such a positive and friendly attitude. You ladies change others' outlook on life with all of the wonderful motivational quotes on the wall, quaint, inviting atmosphere, and encouraging workouts! Kristin was so talented, upbeat and fun during my 55 minute class, and I cannot wait to return. The music was modern and a total blast! I left the class feeling taller and leaner, and more confident. Thanks to you, I have a few exercises I can bring to my students to help them "re-set" their day on a positive note and recall for years to come. I'll definitely be purchasing a class package in the near future and am so thankful to have found your Barre class! read more

Love the energy barre! I hadn't done much barre before I started going here, but I LOVE all their classes. The studios are clean and comfy, and super cute and nice. All the teachers are awesome, and the environment is overall really encouraging and welcoming. The workout is killer!!! Such a great community of awesome ladies and legit workouts. read more

Where do I begin with how awesome this place is!!! It truly is the best of the best! I finally tried this place after quite some time at a local competitor and not seeing results and all I have to say is no way would I ever go back! The Energy Barre has so much to offer - not just silver balls and bands like other barre studios. The Energy Barre has different classes with excellent instructors who keep it fun and never the same repetitive class. The Energy Barre uses the silver balls and bands but they also use blocks, rings, and those purple gliders, which ultimately makes your workout that much harder! And the biggest plus for me is this place ALWAYS incorporates a new exercise or a new class so it's never the same routine. I can see why The Energy Barre was chosen for best barre studio for reader's choice for BONS 2015! read more

I am writing this review based on a few different things. Customer service, studio cleanliness, and Tuesday night dance cardio. I have been meaning to write a review but I secretly didn't want to so I wouldn't end up on the waiting list for a class. Tonight's class was hands down the best aerobics/cardio class I've ever been to. The instructor Brianne is so fun. Not once did I find myself checking for a clock or want the class to end. For customer service, some of my classes had expired because I didn't use them in time. The person who responded to me was so nice and willing to re-activate. Keep doing what your doing Brianne and EB! read more

I have been attending classes at The Energy Barre for almost a year now. It has changed the way I look at exercise classes. The barre classes are difficult but nothing to be afraid of. The women in classes range from teenagers to older moms and everyone is shaped differently. I never feel intimidated because even with a rotator cuff problem, the instructors are able to modify the exercises so that I can participate. The Stoneham location is brand new and offers a TON of classes throughout the day. I usually go to the Reading location because they offer free child care there and I'm able to take a class while my toddlers are having a blast in the room next door. The owner, Julianna is AMAZING. I can't say enough great things about her. She is energetic, supportive, and inspirational every single day. She has worked extremely hard to create such a fantastic studio and I'm very proud of her. All of the instructors that she's hired are great at what they do and keep you working hard. My favorite instructor is Liz M. because I know I'll be sore for at least two days after her class and I love it. Her music mixes are pretty awesome too :) I would strongly recommend trying a class here. They have a 3 for $27 special for new students. The most standard classes are EB Barre and EB Blend for a full body toning. They also offer cardio classes and classes that target specific areas of the body as well. It doesn't matter which class or instructor you try though because I guarantee you'll love them all! read more

I signed up for my first class online and my Living Social voucher did not list that the studio is actually in a studio with a different name. Anyways I kept driving around Reading, could not find Energy Barre (since it was not marked with any sign). I ended up being too late to attend the class. I kindly emailed them to ask to be credited that class back since I was unable to find the place and they refused - they said there are no exceptions if you don't give a 24 hr cancellation after reserving online. I was shocked and disappointed to see such a poor level of customer service read more

I've been meaning to write this review for several months now. I love The Energy Barre. I had been out of the fitness game for quite a while when I joined EB and now I would characterize myself as active. I've been going pretty regularly for about 7 months. The instructors are fun and they really want you to succeed! The vibe is really positive and supportive, but challenging at the same time. Also, the style of exercise is great for people like me who want to work hard, but are not in great shape or have limitations. It's all done on your own mat, space on the floor, or spot at the barre, so you can move at your own pace, take a break, or modify without feeling like you are getting in someone's way. I also really feel like the owner Julianna (and all the EB Girls) care about us. They do so many things to make sure we are challenged, have fun, and focus on our health (even outside of barre classes). For example, they run challenges, are active on social media, and have lots of special classes and events to make things fun and encourage a community atmosphere. The challenges usually involve out-of-studio goals too like walking and tracking steps. For me, this has been awesome because it's encouraging me to walk and jog more! Maybe I've just become a cynic, but it feels amazing to know that they care about my overall health and not just the part I pay them for! Similarly, sometimes the special classes are free or they give away free classes as part of a challenge or contest. It's awesome to give your money to a place that appreciates you enough to give you a little thank you gift here and there! There is a lot of parking in the area and plenty of bathrooms and changing areas. The studio is open before most classes so if you are running from work and need to change you don't have to worry that the doors are locked until 5 minutes before class like some small studios. There are a lot of classes on the schedule so you can always fit some into your week. They also offer free childcare during certain classes if you have little ones! All the instructors are great, but I suggest trying a bunch of them out to see which ones you gel best with. Everyone has their favorites for all sorts of reasons, but I can honestly say I've liked every instructor I've taken. read more

Finally an awesome Barre studio in Medford Square! The space is clean and inviting - instructors are very welcoming and encouraging. Energy Barre has several different types of classes from cardio, to yoga, to barre, to pilates-like- its great! Thank you for moving into such a great location in Medford Square! read more

Best barre class/gym ever!! Will is orange county's best kept dance secret!!!! Hip hop class that makes you sweat and smile. All the barre classes are awesome and a true variety of different class offerings. Its like a spa for barre and other electic exercise classes!!!! read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about Energy Barre, I've been to other barre studios that don't compare! Recently I was a new client, I was shy to walk in, not knowing what to expect! I was blown away by how welcoming everyone was! This is such an amazing studio and I think everyone should try it out :) read more

I've been to three classes at the Stoneham location and had a great experience! The classes are energizing and fun. The instructors are enthusiastic and easy to follow. The location is very convenient and the studio itself is beautiful. Will be signing up for the 10-class pass. read more

All of the instructors are SO friendly, knowledgable and genuinely care about your health. I highly recommend The Energy Barre!!

I've only taken a few classes here, but I absolutely LOVE them! For starters, the instructors are incredibly professional and talented at what they do. The studio offers a variety of classes and each class I took was a little different. I've tried several other barre studio's in the area, and as a certified group fitness and pilates instructor myself, I would recommend The Energy Barre over anywhere else. Another bonus is they have a bunch of childcare available! This studio keeps things fresh, fun and they offer a fabulously welcoming environment. Now I just need to fit more of their classes into my busy schedule! Well done, EB, on creating a wonderful studio where everyone feels loved and welcomed! read more

Amazing, life changing, and one of my favorite places to be. I've moved a lot, and done barre or Pilates everywhere I went, and energy barre is definitely the best of the best-- the classes are challenging, always changing, full of modifications for varying experience levels, and so well planned out. If I had to choose my top classes, it's definitely Liz's matte class, and any of Julianna's classes-- I always leave amazed that I made it through and a little sore but invigorated! The northshore has a lot of options to choose from, and I've tried them all, and EB is definitely the best. (If you're in the south shore try Secret Physique!) Basically whether you're a newcomer or an expert you'll love the classes, vibe, teachers and studio! read more

One of my friends started taking classes here and since I live a few minutes away, I decided to tag along. I already have a gym membership and take regular classes elsewhere, but have started to buy passes here too because I fell in love with it. The classes go by fast since they're always different so I'm always engaged. Barre is like nothing I do at the gym, so it's been fun learning something new and the teachers all really know what they're doing! read more

I started taking classes at The Energy Barre about 9 months ago and have been committed to my barre workouts ever since. Every class is different and challenging and all the instructors continue to find innovative ways to keep my body challenged. I always look forward to my classes and whether it is one class per week or more I am always motivated to be consistent and work my hardest during the hour. I would recommend The Energy Barre to anyone looking to start a new exercise regimen or looking for something to add to their current regimen. My 30-something post baby body looks better than it ever has!!! Lisa L. read more

The Energy Barre has by far the best atmosphere I've ever seen in a gym. And I've belonged to plenty of studios and gyms. This is by far my favorite. The instructors and owner always have a smile on their face there is never a sense of cliquey-ness that we sometimes see. They'll get to know your name, make you feel a part of the EBqueens family. I'm very happy to be a part of the Energy Barre and I always look forward to going! I'm so thankful for what they do for us. They all are experts at their craft I absolutely love their matte classes and cardio dance is my absolute favorite. All levels are always welcome. I always feel challenged and strive to make going a big part of my week. read more

I can't say enough about how wonderful this barre studio is and all of the amazing instructors, starting with the owner Julianna. My mom dragged me to my first class a year and a half ago and I've been hooked ever since! I was nervous at first since I have no real flexibility or dance skills but I quickly learned that neither are necessary for barre, especially with the fantastic EB instructors carefully demonstrating and teaching every move and always including modifications when necessary. I've continued classes while pregnant and because of the carefully demonstrated modifications have found it to be the one exercise I can stick to while my body grows and changes without fear of causing injury to myself or the baby. I've also been taking the EB Mama series, which is just a wonderful specialty class geared just towards expecting and new moms. In terms of the cancellation policy mentioned in another review - every single studio in the area has the exact same 24 hour policy, which not only ensures accountability on the client's part but also spares other clients from missing class due to no-shows, etc. That being said, I know of instances where life has really gotten in the way and they have been more than accommodating in applying the policy. Julianna is one of the most positive and compassionate people I've met (not to mention a clear inspiration and strong supporter to so many of us in reaching fitness and personal goals) and I always leave her classes ready to tackle the day ahead. Obviously I can't say enough good things about The Energy Barre so you should treat yourself and take a class! read more

I don't even know where to start when it comes to singing the praises of The Energy Barre and all the amazing women who teach and go there.... EB is the only place I have ever found that has kept me coming back and working out for more than a few months; I have been taking 3-5 classes per week consistently since the studio opened over a year ago (up to 8 classes in one week). It is safe to say I am addicted to the muscle-shaking workouts and the positivity that emanates from everyone and everything in the studios. I hate being away from classes for more than a day or two and have started bringing supplies on trips with me to hold me over when I can't get to EB. I could go on for chapters, but i am trying to keep this short and not ramble (sorry in advance!) so I will finish with the owner and instructors... These women are amazing! They are so strong - inside and out - and set such an amazing example for a healthy lifestyle. They are always available to talk through anything - concerns, successes, fitness or diet advice, etc - and are incredibly helpful and just all around inspirational. I have never been a super healthy person (I know the right things to do but lack follow-through and focus) but EB has truly changed my outlook on health and fitness. They don't promote "diets" but are very motivating with whole-body health and wellness in daily conversation, Facebook posts, weekly mantras, class intentions, 7 week intensive challenges, etc. When I wanted to lose 40 pounds for my wedding, Julianna and the others helped guide me to do what I needed to do to get there... And I did!!! I love my wedding photos and I honestly feel like I owe it all to EB and their Barre Beautiful Bride program! Now that I have my barre, blend, and matte class routine firmly in place, I am going to add burn classes to help up my cardio (EB instructors are very clear that cardio is important if your goal is weight-loss) and continue to follow the healthy-eating tips to continue to create new healthy habits for my husband and I. I would (and do) recommend EB for all women looking for a killer workout that makes you feel confident and keeps you coming back! All in all, I simply LOVE The Energy Barre and the incredible instructors!! :D read more

I love it here! The studio is beautiful, with inspirational quotes and photos along the wall motivating you during your workout. Most of the instructors I've encountered I really love, though Liz M, Julianna (the owner), Katie, and Jessica are some of my favorites. All of them bring such positive energy to their classes that I really look forward to coming to workout. I prefer their matte/barre classes to EB Burn, which is similar to a cardio boot camp. It's a pretty good class, I just wish there was some more variety (maybe with weights, ropes, etc). read more

I mostly visit the new Beverly studio and I've had nothing but amazing experiences there. Every instructor is amazing, I love how they know me by name and are smiling when you walk through the door. The owner/managers are super attentive and respond to any questions I have almost immediately through email! The classes are challenging, motivating and leave me feeling great. Such positive vibes!!!!! Love it :) read more

I went because a friend who started barre classes encouraged me to go. I didn't see myself as a barre kind of person. I am glad I tried it. A great workout, addictive because it feels good when you finish and it is challenging. The staff here is friendly and run great classes. read more

There is a reason why this studio has nothing but positive reviews - it is honestly the best workout, in the most beautiful atmosphere with most importantly the most POSITIVE instructors that you will ever meet. This studio is truly a community of wonderful women supporting and cheering each other on. I have been going since it opened on day one and over the years that energy has not changed despite the studio exploding to three locations and so many different types of classes. There is something for everyone here - classic barre to cardio dance to HIIT and even paddle board in the summer! So nice to have a great selection of classes all under one roof. Love EB. read more

I have been coming to the Energy Barre for over a year now and I love it. The classes are challenging and there is a style for any interest. I travel frequently and have tried to find the same experience when I am away and nothing compares. The women who run the studio and all of the instructors truly care for each client as an individual both body and mind. The inspirational messaging and the focus on being healthy and happy physically and mentally really shines through. This is a studio that welcomes all, from beginner to expert. You will get an excellent workout, in a beautiful studio full of encouragement and positive energy. This has become my "happy place" where I can focus on me for an hour, before getting back to focussing on everything else in life! I find that more and more, the positive energy carries through to all the rest too! read more
