Previously I would have given PBF a 10/10 and recommended to anyone. However, since the transition has happened communication has been dodgy and defensive. PBF has been my home away from home and happy place for over 12 years. The disruption in routine has been very upsetting and with no clear timeline for when we will be back to a full schedule of in studio classes in a true pure barre studio. I feel like a once thriving community is quickly falling apart and it is disheartening. Recent resignation of management/leadership is also concerning. I do appreciate the livestream classes and I am able to take class at Roots some on the weekends and while it is not the same as being in a true PB studio it is a nice facility and good to see some of our community and be with the remaining (amazing) teachers. WIth no clear timeline for the future (and with things seemingly moving at an incredibly slow place) it is hard to recommend PBF to new clients at this time.
I love the community that Erin has built and the body positive and inclusive environment. I also love the workouts and the encouragement from instructors and clients.
Teacher turnover has been very challenging
After heavy weightlifting for several years I was not sure if I would like Pure Barre, but I absolutely love it. I was a competitive dancer for many years, so I appreciate how they focus on the technique! I also love the instructors at St. Paul Eagan. Marti especially is very hands-on, and I love that!
Bring back 7:30 classes and Sunday afternoon
I have been taking classes since 2019. There is never a class that i have taken that i thought was easy.. Pure Barre always challenges me and allows me to become stronger with every class.
The instructors are always welcoming and they make the class so fun. I love how welcoming it is! The environment is so fun and the music makes it even better.
No studio or progress towards one
I love the classes and the instructors are the best.
I enjoy classic
Consistent (but not repetitive) low-impact workout. Friendly supportive atmosphere
Everything!! One of the best workouts for ALL and everyone. Love, Love, Love!
The instructors are SO helpful and just genuine, kind women!! I always feel stronger and more encouraged after class.
Awesome staff, flexible cancelations and package policies, great discounts and sales, best workout
I love the instructors and their attitudes and love how they encourage everyone!! Instructors here are wonderful!! The main things I would change is have a stretch/warm up period that is longer (we jump into difficult moves right away), have more moves using the actual bar (actual ballet movements), and have some more slower movements (stretching, yoga and isometric exercises moves - like wall sits - intermixed). We've done some wall sits at Pure Barre. Overall, we do so many small movements so quickly that I am torn if I should stat with Pure Barre. Since there is very little warm up built in or time for water break, the 50 minutes of the Classic class feels so long for me. I do like how the music allows you to coordinate all your exercises with the beat but would prefer more variety of music styles. It's definitely challenging and I do like that, aspect, and I realize most paid classes of this type probably do not have much in the way of stretching breaks or 3 minutes to grab water. Thank you for your consideration.
I love so many things about Pure Barre! It is such a good workout while being low impact. I have struggled to find something that I want to do consistently and this has definitely been that! Everyone is so nice and welcoming, the class times are really easy to fit into my schedule, and I appreciate the variety, but also the ability to modify as needed. I really can't say enough good things about Pure Barre!!
The staff are very helpful, encouraging and they correct you to get the most out of a particular move. They are not negative and are very friendly. Multiple classes
The community is provides. The ever changing classes to keep it challenging! The teachers can be so fun!
I love how the instructors aren't afraid to give corrections! I also really like how you can feel the burn actively as you do the workouts and I always leave excited for my next workout! They truly have created such a welcoming and encouraging environment!
Great classes and instructors
Great classes and instructors!
I love Pure Barre Spring Hill because it's so much more than a workout! The instructors are amazing, the community is welcoming and encouraging, and I always leave feeling strongerâphysically and mentally. It's my favorite hour to focus on myself and be surrounded by such uplifting people!
One of the reasons I decided to try this particular barre studio is because it's close to my home so I can easily get to the studio. Everyone is so welcoming and encouraging which keeps me coming back.
I've had such a great experience at Pure Barre! The classes are challenging and fun, and I love how welcoming and encouraging the instructors are. The atmosphere is positive and motivating, and every class leaves me feeling stronger, more energized, and accomplished. I really appreciate the attention to form and the supportive community that makes every workout enjoyable. Pure Barre is such a great place to challenge yourself, build strength, and feel good both physically and mentally. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great workout and an amazing fitness community!
Love love love the classes. Studio is clean - teachers are great!
PUre Barre is the best all around workout. It keeps me fit without worrying about injury. So nice to have smaller classes snd such nice institutions who give personal instruction.
Variety of classes, friendly instructors and convenient class schedules.
It's a total Head to toe workout. Every day a new challenge. Love the music. Staff is supportive and helpful. They have continued to create a very warm and friendly atmosphere.
First, I want to say how much I appreciate this studio. The environment has always been very welcoming, and the community is so supportive. Because I love this studio and have been a long-time member here, I wanted to share some constructive feedback regarding a few recent changes. Instructor Consistency & Training: Our long-time teachers are fantastic. However, some of the recent new additions seem to need a bit more training and support to feel fully prepared. Additionally, the schedule and teacher line-ups have been changing much more frequently lately, making it difficult to plan. Class Availability (Align): Align classes seem to disappear from the schedule more often than othersâespecially right now as we head into the final stretch of the Fall challenge, when having those classes is most helpful. Speaking with other members who take Align, we would love to see this format offered more consistently. (And Brittany used to be on the schedule, and does a great Align class). Visibility of Class Sizes: Recently, the app/schedule view stopped showing the number of available spots for classes (except for free classes). It was always helpful to see capacity in advance and know whether a class would be packed or more intimate, especially on days when you prefer a smaller group. Lastly, I love the pop-ups and social events the studio plans for us; you do a great job with those! I hope you don't mind this feedback; I know there are many moving parts to keep the studio running. Thank you for listening and for all you do!
Great class
i love love love my gym!!! it's a source of fitness and a social community. My only feedback is that I'd love to have more classes to choose from. especially doubles for those who are yearly members that want to stack two classes on one day
The positive energy of the whole Pure Barre community. Always encouraging each other.
It's good excercise , professional and polite instructors which makes it lively and fun.
Great workout - gentle on the joints but challenges the muscles - especially the core! Instructors are well trained and friendly.
It's a great community. All are very supportive and are cheerleaders for everyone.
Always positive energy, but still a challenging workout. Especially fond of the Define classes, more weights are good !
Instructors are great! Always offering help and alternatives. Very friendly staff! Highly recommend. I have had success in toning arms and legs.
Love this place. Always a happy place. Everyone is so positive and happy and pleasant to talk with. The classes seem to always change monthly which is very great to keep it Interesting!
I love Pure Barre! I started a couple of years ago, and at that time I had not worked out regularly for MANY years. I joined various gyms in the past, but could never motivate myself to keep going, and would end up canceling. Pure Barre is different. Everyone is so welcoming, and the instructors are incredible! They are passionate and knowledgeable, and guide/encourage members to be their best throughout each class. I have become stronger, healthier and more confident since joining. I'm truly grateful to have found this community! â¤ï¸
A variety of class formats in the morning, the instructors, every class is different or changes frequently, and it's a great full body workout!
I love that I get to chose my own schedule and the intensity of workout depending on what I need. I love getting to know the teachers' styles, and having many teachers to choose classes from. I love that it helps me feel better after and accomplished after the work out.
I love how fast paced the classes are, how tight knit the community is, and how sore I feel after I'm done!
Great, full body workout that is challenging regardless of how long you have been doing it. Also, the variety of ages means it works for everyone.
I sometimes feel like a couple of the class times are just a little too big. If I walk in 5 min before class I struggle to find a bar spot and that feels really intimidating. I wonder if you should consider capping the enrollment for each class at a little lower number?
Great class schedule and variety, great coaches, welcoming community!
- I like the early morning classes. I wish there were 5:30am classes on the weekends as well. - instructors are friendly. - it is challenging but not so challenging it's not doable. - I like the location.
The full body workout I get, encouragement from instructors and the of the others I workout with. At 62, I want to enjoy my life to the fullest. Pure Barre give me strength and flexibility to be my best selfâ¤ï¸
Great workouts, great people, great trainers.
Teachers are great. The classic classes I want are so few and far between though. I'm considering taking a step back in membership but then I'm not sure is the price per class is even worth it.
The instructors are exceptional and classes are fun and full of variety!
