Community. That's what Brianna and David have created in Yolo Barre. They opened a few months before the pandemic and fought like hell to hang on (and grow!) their business during shut downs, class limitations, mandates, and wildfires. How did they do it? By building a supportive community...and by being fun! You won't find two people with more positive energy, and they bring that to class every single time. During the lock down I did a number of at home gym workouts through a few places and Yolo Barre was absolutely the best. Barre is a great workout for everyone. It's basically no/very low impact, and can be adapted to anyone's individual needs. Brianna and David were always very helpful to me (I'm "special!" ) as was Carolina. They gave me so much individual help! Yolo Barre is a "safe space." Everyone is welcome. It doesn't t matter do you are or where you're starting--there is a place for you. It's also judgement free--you won't walk in and see the place full of 20-somethings in Lululemon. Come as you are comfortable. If you don't have a friend at the beginning of class, you probably will at the end! They are also VERY safe conscious. They've offered studio, outdoor, park, and online classes over the past year and a half. They are the first gym in Davis to require proof of vaccination for studio classes. This is gutsy and smart! HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! read more

YoloBarre is seriously the best vibe! The classes are super energizing, always fun, and they work your butt off in the best way. I love that every class is a little different--it keeps things fresh and never boring. The music is always on point and totally pumps you up! And it WORKS! I started seeing a difference in my body after only a few classes. I was more toned, I had more energy, and I lost a lot of the stubborn baby weight that was clinging to me. The instructors are amazing--so friendly, always smiling, they know your name and make you feel seen. They're great about offering alternatives if something doesn't feel quite right, and I really appreciate that they walk around and gently help correct your form so you get the most out of each move. The community here is just buzzing with good energy. Everyone is so welcoming and genuinely kind. I've even had those fun "Barre Babe in the wild!" moments when you run into someone from class around town--it always sparks a happy conversation. If you're looking for a workout that's uplifting, challenging, and full of positive vibes, YoloBarre is it! read more

Jasmine's barre class on Wednesday was the best I've ever been! Can't wait to attend more of her classes in the future

I have never liked working out, going to the gym, any of it. Since starting at Yolo Barre, I have actually enjoyed working out!! The classes feel quick, powerful, and so worth it. It isn't much time out of the day, but I get so much out of it - mentally and physically. I have lost more than 15 lbs since January 1 this year (less than 3 months) and I owe a lot of that to Yolo Barre. Since attending regularly, I have noticed a difference in my body, in my energy level, and in other aspects of my life (I recently went snowboarding on a powder day and while my buddies' thighs were aching and burning, I was ready for more! Then I went to Yolo Barre again the next morning at 6am!). I HIGHLY recommend Yolo Barre for anybody who wants a great, efficient, satisfying full body work-out and feel-good environment to boot! read more

I cannot recommend Yolo Barre enough! I joined Yolo Barre in early 2023 when I was experiencing infertility issues. Barre was just what I needed- it was a fantastic physical outlet and positive supportive community. After being welcomed into the community I was pregnant within a month. I continued to work out multiple times a week throughout my pregnancy. The instructors were knowledgeable and worked with my growing belly in safe ways so I was able to still get a great workout in. I stayed in shape throughout my pregnancy, was doing jumping jacks on my due date, and had an incredibly fast labor and delivery (I was told my pelvic floor was incredibly strong and asked if I was an athlete in the hospital- thanks barre). My healthy baby is growing and active. I have been continuing to workout as a mother. The welcoming community at barre is much needed time for me and my body in the afternoons. I was fitting into my pre-pregnancy clothes within 6 months post partum and am in great shape to keep up with my daughter. I have made great friends at barre and just feel so welcomed every day I walk into the studio. No matter who or what you are going through in life Yolo Barre is there for you. Highly highly recommend. read more

Yolo Barre - Barre Classes Near Me - Davis, California

Although I have never been someone that likes to exercise, the Yolo Barre staff and the climate of acceptance that the owner works hard to establish , makes me feel so encouraged to keep it up. It has improved my mood, balance and general feeling of wellness. The staff and owner work hard to make everyone feel welcome and connected, which was especially helpful after losing my husband a couple of years ago. I am grateful to have a place to go to feel accepted and make social connections. Thank you Yolo Barre . read more

Soooo Strong! Yep, thats me now that I have done almost a year of classes at Yolo Barre. I love that they have a drop in type package that renews after you use up 5 because I travel a lot and monthly subscriptions don't make sense for me. Also love the on time start and end to the 45 min classes. No stress if you gotta get out and onto your next thing. The vibe in class is laid back, supportive and up beat. The teachers are fabulous and all leave me wanting to come back again and again. I have tried several classes around yolo to increase strength, build endurance, regain definition and reduce size and I have obtained all this and more here. Im a stick-to-myself kind of girl but the energy here is infectious and kinda wonderful. Whether I talk to anyone or not, I feel part of something good here. It is a safe bubble kinda place with something for everyone. read more

Absolutely LOVE this place. So full of positive energy and good vibes all around. This is a very no judgement zone while encouraging each person to push themselves to the best of their ability. Everyone seems to be at different levels too so that makes it even more welcoming! I am first and foremost a HIIT and powerlifting junky. I can throw around quite a bit of weight and have no issue with high intensity workouts so I thought this would be a piece of cake! I was so very wrong. Barre is challenging! But in a good way. By focusing on posture, endurance, body weight manipulation and sustainable strength, I have found new balance and core strength I haven't been able to achieve in regular weightlifting. Every class is different so you'll never get bored. It challenges your physical and mental strength during class and helps you carry it through the rest of your day. I have some pretty sensitive knees and lower back from lifting so working this in regularly as a low/no impact workout has been hugely helpful in gaining strength without breaking myself. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Every instructor is dedicated to making sure everyone is getting the most out of their workout and are always striving to ensure everyone understands the movements while being safe. I would encourage anyone to give this place a try! Whether you're a newbie to exercise in general or your looking for a fun new way to challenge yourself, I think you'll have one hell of a good workout! read more

Yolo Barre - Post Yolo Barre Workout vibes - Barre Classes Near Me - Davis, California

I joined Yolo Barre when it opened in May of 2019. It has been an anchor in my life since that time, especially during the pandemic, when Brianna pivoted to livestreaming classes. She continues to build a collection of online workouts, which are a wonderful resource when I travel or can't make it to the studio. The in-person classes are really phenomenal. All of the instructors are knowledgeable and make workouts fun and challenging. I am able to modify as needed to address some orthopedic issues I have, and I always feel love and support from the instructors and my classmates. The Yolo Barre community is the best. I highly recommend. read more

Yolo Barre has been a life changer for me. Brianna, David and the rest of the instructors are professional and really know what they are doing. They all provide personalized attention to their members. Their routines and music are full of positive energy and the results are amazing. Personally my posture and balance have improved tremendously and since I like to walk everyday feel that I can walk longer and with a lot more energy. I am a senior citizen and I have really benefited tremendously from their classes. I highly recommend Yolo Barre. You will not regret it. I also love their virtual classes. read more

When my friend recommended I try Yolo Barre I was a bit skeptical. I had always been drawn to more cardio centric workouts in the past. But one class and I was hooked! After having my 2nd baby my core was in bad shape. I also have moderate scoliosis and have dealt with chronic pain a majority of my life. Since going to Barre I am now pain free and feel stronger than ever before. The instructors are all really great, and each has their own style. It's also an amazing community filled with wonderful empowering (mostly women) who are non judgmental and supportive. I feel as though I have become a part of an awesome community at Yolo Barre. Brianna is 100% there for you in your fitness journey and it is clear she is very passionate about her business. It shows! Barre is good for your mind, body, and spirit! (Jamie H. 6AM crew!) read more

YoloBarre is the best fitness experience in Yolo County! I started working out here 4 years ago when they opened the doors. I kept it up during the pivot to online streaming classes during lockdown. Now I'm an instructor! The friendly, caring and knowledgable instructors and front desk staff make coming to the studio a true joy! And if for any reason you're in a bad mood when you arrive, I can pretty much guarantee that you will leave feeling 100% better. The work out is a well rounded, full body experience complete with bumping music from all genres and for all tastes. I have made so many wonderful friends at YoloBarre! My time there has not only transformed my body, but it has changed my life for the better! read more

Yolo Barre is a community unlike any other! It is welcoming, positive, personal, supportive, and fun. I have taken classes at a lot of studios/gyms and I have never been a part of a community like Yolo Barre. I love it so much that I now teach there. Yolo Barre is a place were you are greeted by name, you are known and you are seen. You receive individualized feedback and corrective adjustments to ensure the best workout. Classes are varied and challenging with options offered to create the workout that best matches your needs. And the music is cued to the exercises to keep it motivating and engaging. Come give Yolo Barre a try, you will not be disappointed! read more

When I moved to Davis in June, I took to Instagram to search out an alternative that would incorporate my desire for stretching, love of music, and passion for meeting other fitness-minded individuals. I was immediately drawn to Yolo Barre on account of the energy which radiated from the social media postings, featuring joyous members, celebratory of one another's accomplishments. After my initial class with Brianna, I was thrilled to become a regular member. I experienced the warmth of the Yolo Barre community from my very first time in the studio and have since felt graciously received on the grass in the park, and on the mats on the back patio. I have marveled at how adaptable the owners and instructors have been in accommodating the ever-changing regulations that govern gyms. With each new mandate, Brianna and David have exercised greater and greater creativity, flexibility, and leadership. In seeing their adaptability, I am reminded that my body and mind can flourish even under stress and strain. As a family practice clinician, I am frequently caring for individuals whose bodies and minds are not in peak condition. I see these folks on their worst, most needful days. Many of them struggle with weight and thus manage lifelong besetting chronic medical conditions. Some of the central features of these common health concerns are overweight and pain. I am able to model to my patients healthy weight and pain-free living on account of my involvement with Yolo Barre. I have a personal history of a life-altering car accident that impacted me at age 21. From the accident, I have three crushed lumbar vertebrae. Without daily exercise and core strength, I myself would live in daily debilitating pain. Thanks to Yolo Barre in conjunction with indoor cycling, walking and now boxing, I am able to sustain a painless experience of my body. Another great benefit of my involvement with Yolo Barre has been the social connection with other women, in particular. It has been heartening and encouraging to see the other members whose lives are also being bettered and enhanced by this wonderfully fun fitness routine. I am grateful to be on our collective road towards self-improvement, strength, and endurance. On account of what my body has proven it can do in barre classes, I am assured that my mind and spirit can overcome whatever adversity is thrown my way. Be it Covid-19, California's smokey air, or the daily stressors of life, I am assured I am a resilient woman who can face it ALL with confidence. read more

I was never the sporty type growing up and I've only done exercise because I've "had to." That all changed when I started going to Yolo Barre. I now look forward to my workouts! Brianna, David, and the rest of the instructors are amazing! They are energetic, fun and caring. They're always finding ways to keep things fresh and interesting. Being a member of Yolo Barre means being part of a community that values not only, "Posture, Figure and Function" but its members. We truly are, "Stronger Together." read more

Love Yolo Barre. They welcomed me from the very first class, listened to me and gave me personalized feedback and corrections. They really pay attention to each member and make sure that everyone is moving safely. I have a common back injury, but had been suffering from flare ups, including nearly constant nerve pain down both legs. Since I started at Yolo Barre in January, this nerve pain has completely abated. I feel stronger and haven't had one major back flare up, and I always leave class in a better mood than when I arrived! read more

This studio is AWESOME! Each class I've taken with different instructors has been wonderful. It's an encouraging environment with friendly people, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes to have fun while getting stronger! read more

I've been going to Yolo Barre for about 5 weeks now. The workouts here are no joke! Each one is unique and targets a wide range of muscles. Every class is fun, each instructor has their own great personality, best of all they all play really great music that fits every exercise. It's pretty impressive. One of my favorite parts of coming here is they welcome every single person on their way in and out. They get to know everyone, not just the 'regulars'. I recommend you give them a try, if you haven't already. read more

I love Yolo Barre! The instructors are all fabulous. The positive energy keeps you moving for each of the 45 minute classes.

Highly recommend. read more

After a year of quarantine, I was eager to return to a place where I could move my body. YOLO Barre made sure to abide by COVID-19 regulations making me feel safe and excited to join! Each class I was able to engage a different muscle and really sweat for 45 minutes. After 6 weeks of classes, I feel myself getting stronger and still enjoying classes. Each instructor is great at coming up with fresh routines so that the work outs remain interesting. Most of all, I loved the body positivity. So many places push only for weight loss or one body type, but here it's so much more than that. I am sad to be leaving YOLO Barre because there is a sense of community here that will be hard to find again. Would recommend trying this place out! read more

I have been a member since Yolo Barre opened in June 2019. The studio has always been clean, so it's no surprise that Brianna and her staff have taken the pandemic very seriously. She has gone above and beyond to create a safe and healthy environment, whether it's in the park, the back patio or virtually in the wake of COVID-19. Her commitment to our physical, mental and emotional health and her flexibility to adapt to new county restrictions, never fail to amaze me. The community that Brianna has brought together are an important part of maintaining positive human connections and motivation while isolated and trying to stay healthy during this difficult time. I don't know what I would do without Yolo Barre! read more

I joined Yolo Barre after a serious accident that broke several bones and ruptured a ligament in my foot. I had to have surgery and couldn't walk on it for two months. Once I was cleared to walk and had been undergoing physical therapy for several months I joined YB to gain back the ability to lift my heel and put weight on my toes. I don't know if I would've gone through that painful rehabilitative process without the help of Yolo Barre. I think of YB as physical therapy in a Zumba class. You do ballet-like positions and hold them for minutes while pulsing or bending (plie) your knees or lifting your heels (releve) to various heights. There are big movements and tiny movements. The big movements give you a great cardio workout. The little movements burn and are more targeted. They're really really intense, but close your eyes and groove to the music. The teachers are all trained by Brianna, the studio's ever-present owner. She's amazing and teaches many of the classes herself as does her husband, David. In fact, all the instructors are amazing and I love how they all make their own playlists. It's not some generic elevator-fitness music like some classes. Music is everything when you're working out! YB classes are fun, intense but they go by fast. If your rehabbing or if you just want to improve your stability and endurance or if you just want to look and feel great, YB is a solid choice for you! read more

Absolutely phenomenal 2.5 years spent training with these guys! Even through Covid and shelter in place they made workouts accessible and fun! My arms have never looked better! And most importantly, my body feels great!! Sad to be leaving due to a move, but hopeful to see these guys thrive as a wonderful locally owned option for barre aficionados! read more

This newly opened barre studio is a gem! Not only do you get a total body no impact workout in 45 mins, but there are a ton of times to choose from and the owner's personal committment to learning your name and making sure you feel welcome (at any level) is impressive.

A wonderful addition to Davis, Brianna and her team are such genuine, helpful ladies who have created a wonderful studio that you can go into and let the worries of your day melt away. As a certified personal trainer who's always trying to further myself, I thoroughly enjoyed Barre, it definitely promotes extra awareness of the muscles in your body and this for someone who might have injuries or poor posture can be key information in looking after themselves better. As somebody who was once above the 240lbs mark I know it can sometimes be daunting to start an exercise class, I know a few different ones made me feel Unwelcome over the years. But Yolo Barre is for anybody, all shapes and sizes. There's no excuse if you think you're out of shape. I've seen all walks of life there, - men included! They also have a wonderful Facebook support group where you can get extra home workouts and ask questions! Give it a go! You'll never regret a workout once it's done! Namaste read more

Yolo Barre has definitely brought the joy back to personal fitness for me. Thanks YB! read more

From the moment I first walked into Yolo Barre, I was hooked! The modern but spa-like atmosphere invokes an immediate feeling of health, calm, and wellbeing.

At Yolo Barre, 45-minute classes make that possible! Brianna, David, and the entire Yolo Barre team make each Yolo Barre member feel seen, valued, and empowered. Yolo Barre has made me a stronger person, both physically and emotionally, in every area of my life! After seeing the many, many positive effects Yolo Barre has had on my well-being and my body (I have a six-pack for the first time EVER at age 39!), my husband has recently obtained his own Yolo Barre membership!
