I have provided feedback in an email 9/14. No response. Dear Pure Barre Newton Team, I wanted to share some feedback after a recent class where I arrived about two minutes after the scheduled start time and found the studio door locked. I understand punctuality matters for class flow, but I'd like to raise two things: Safety concern: Locking the studio door during class raises a fire/life-safety question — in the event of an emergency, a locked door could delay someone getting in to help or getting out quickly. I'd ask that this practice be reviewed against any applicable fire code or occupancy requirements for the space. A little more flexibility for occasional lateness: Newton is not a rural area — this is a city location with real traffic congestion and school buses making frequent stops. On top of that, the studio doesn't provide its own parking, so members have to find street parking and pay the meter before walking in, which adds another couple of minutes that's outside anyone's control. Those minutes add up, and even leaving with plenty of buffer doesn't always account for a school bus stopped ahead, city streets being repaired without warning, or a line at the parking meter. This isn't a regular habit for me — it happens rarely and unplanned. I'd really appreciate a short grace period, or at least the ability to quietly slip in a couple of minutes late, rather than being locked out entirely. I value my membership and the studio experience, and wanted to raise this constructively so it can be considered going forward. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Alina Monisov

Great full-body workout, the atmosphere, good teachers and the clean, comfortable space.

Great workout, good instructors

The instructors! The availability of classes. The people I have met. And feeling great!

Music and rhythm , great challenging workout, but gentle on my joints

Everything! The amazing group of women I have met and the fantastic instructors who make classes fun

I love everything about it. Great workout, amazing teachers and great people.

lots of class options and generally lots of time frame options

Great workout, fast paced, instructors give helpful cues on how to do the movements more effectively, supportive and friendly group of people to exercise with.

I love the music, variety of exercises, excellent teachers, and central location. It is definitely loud in there, so I wear earplugs every time. My top constructive feedback would be to do a safety check of the decibels level, for the ear health of employees and clients.

A monthly reoccurring membership should be enough no-show charges, and cancellation charges seem to be excessive and unfair charges for paying members. Or at a minimum allow a few per quarter. People are busy and life happens. I would recommend the workout classes themselves but I'm not sure I would recommend a membership. Also at times I've sent an email and no one responds.

I love the workout, especially the focus classes lately

The class structure, how it works different muscles, and how the routine isn't always the same within the class. Plus I think it's great that it's suitable and tailored to all different kinds of people in their fitness journey. Instructors also make the class

Consistency of workout

Proximity to my home, array of classes, schedule of classes works well with mine, good and some great teachers.

Amazing 50 minute all body workout!

I love the incredible, welcoming staff. The variety of classes, especially the addition of Align and Define. Wish there were more Align classes offered.

Teachers, workouts.

I have been doing Pure Barre for 12 years. I still love it and find it challenging after all these years. It has made me stronger than I have ever been.

I would love to see more classes at 12 and 4:30 that are either classic or reform. If you have a 9:30 weekend class in newton as define, please offer classic at the same time in wellesley. New teachers should teach at odd times for at least 6 months. They get better and I understand they need practice to do that, but putting them on at 9:30 on weekdays or on a weekend is tough because we don't always have options to go to more challenging classes then.

The workout Define! The community

I miss the hands on corrections I had at the old studio I was attending. And sometimes the volume for the music is too high.

Location, instructors, and class options.

I would like to see much better instructors. The reason PB Newton was so great in the past was because of the strength of the teaching crew. Currently, only a handful of instructors live up to the old standards, and they teach a very limited number of classes.

The workout is fun and effective. The four different class formats makes sure all your fitness needs are covered so there is no need to go anywhere else. Additionally, the instructors and staff are well trained, helpful and welcoming to all.
