Client Testimonials
Friendly and open staff and teachers. Quality of instruction and knowledge of instructors to provide appropriate feedback. And a supportive and safe environment and community!
I like that everyone was very welcoming even though it is obvious that I have not worked out in quite some time. I love that the class actually worked and that I was able to feel it working with every movement.
love the studio, the childcare (especially Jenna!) and love the instructors and the workout :)
Love the knowledgeable instructors and friendly staff. Most importantly, I love the way barre3 makes me feel!
The convenient location
Barre 3 is one of the best workouts I've had. The Madison studio is super friendly and clean. :-)
Teachers and studio are both amazing!
I love the entire workout!
It seems to be a perfect fit to what I have been missing in my daily workouts.
So much kindness and acceptance wrapped up in a challenging workout. Would recommend this studi to anyone who asks.
Friendly staff, great class
Friendly, helpful, great instructors
Holly and her team are customer-centric, creative, and show a unique interest in their customers!
I love that the instructors know my name.
I love the classes. I'd go every day if it wasn't so far from me (I wish there was a Barre 3 closer to the university or in Oro Valley!). Instructors are kind, supportive, and motivating.
Ashley, I've been trying to figure out for a while whether or how to bring this to your attention, but I care so much about the studio and believe so much in Barre3 as a method that I felt it was important. I just didn't want to be *THAT* client.
Let me start by saying that I LOVE LOVE LOVE coming to class (although my schedule only allows me to do that once a week), and I have been doing Barre3 almost daily for the past year, and multiple times a week for a year before that. I'm a member of a large online exercise forum and have referred tons of people to Barre3 online and/or their local studios with my rave reviews and results. I talk about it to everyone I know, pretty much! Previously, I had also done a bunch of other types of barre classes in other locations, and Barre3 is by far my favorite method and atmosphere.
BUT, one of the things I like most about live classes is that the instructors are there to help me get deeper into my postures and perfect/hone my form in a way that I can't do at home. At pretty much every other class I've attended- yoga, barre, pilates, etc.- the instructors walk around the room correcting form, encouraging students individually and helping them optimize their workouts. The big exception is Barre3 (Winter Park is the only Barre3 studio I've attended). There are one or two Barre3 instructors who do that, but I've taken classes with almost all of the instructors, and most of them stay at the bar working out with the class and do not walk around helping students. I really try to not pay attention to what others are doing but I can't help but notice terrible form by newcomers or even more experienced exercisers that goes unnoticed and uncorrected by most of the instructors. I don't mean layers or modifications, I mean fundamental and necessary parts of the postures, like keeping the spine in neutral, or keeping the chest open, or not dipping into the lower back. It makes me wince, and the instructors ignore it, which makes me wonder what errors of mine they're not correcting either! I totally get working at your own level (I had to modify heavily during and after pregnancy and I embrace that!), and I love Barre3's motto of "Make it your own," but considering how much Sadie and the other instructors in Barre3 online emphasize form, I think the same should be true in live classes.
Barre3 is one of my true loves, and I try to live the Barre3 lifestyle in every way I can. I've just been disappointed about this for a while, to the extent that I've considered switching to the Bar Method or Pure Barre just to have access to better instruction. I didn't want to offend anyone or make waves, but I think as a studio owner, you probably want to hear this feedback because if a Barre3 fangirl like me would consider going elsewhere because of this issue, there are probably others who would do so. I love the studio and still refer every single person I know to it, but I really hope this is something that can be improved. Thank you again for creating such a beautiful, welcoming space for both me and Elly, and I look forward to many more classes.
The instructors are so attentive and really take the time to get to know you. Lots of people obviously become loyal to certain instructors, and it's those relationships that make it so worthwhile. It's like having multiple personal trainers that are helping you get to the next level, or help you through pain or injury. They encourage and cheer you on. Sometimes it's hard to know if I've made progress or hit a plateau on my own, but I can always count on getting what I need. Been a game changer for me.
There's been a few receptionists since I've started coming frequently and every single one of them takes the time to learn my name and greet me warmly. I've had to call to switch a class and they've known exactly who I am. That doesn't happen in a lot of places!
The instructor was friendly and helpful.
They are the nicest instructors I've ever had in a class and they really care about your needs/modifications.
Everything!!!
Knowledgable instructors, a workout anyone can do, childcare available, many time slots to choose from, great location.

Wish there were more class times though
clean and simple facilities. fast checkin. good instruction. nice childcare area
good customer service
All the Barre3 instructors are exceptional!!
great location, great facility (loved that you had products in the bathroom - I wouldn't necessarily need them but its a really thoughtful touch; loved the clothing line. Melissa's community class was very good (my first Barre3 class). Very pleasant, upbeat staff. Like the new-client promos.
Only negatives - I;m not a huge fan of the club-like music for the class. Not my thing. And one wall of the studio has no mirrors, so as a first time student who arrived later than the rest, I had no way to see instructor or see my own form when doing barre work.
Annie was a very friendly instructor. She was helpful and encouraging. Clean classroom.
I love how friendly everyone is from the moment I walk in. No love how the teachers are active in the class and make adjustments. I love the facility and the music.
Beautiful studio, clean, spacious. Great teacher!
Consistency and atmosphere
Clean facilities, knowledgeable teacher, child care
