Barre Basics is a 50-minute total body workout on Thursdays at 10 a.m. at Beachside Health Studio. The class is designed to tone, lift and sculpt the body and will be led by ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, Katie Williams.

The Barre Basics class is designed to use the body’s own weight to isolate, strengthen, and sculpt all major muscle groups. Pilates exercises are largely performed in a sitting or prone position, while the Barre Basics exercises take place both at the ballet bar and on mats. Barre Basics focuses on strengthening, stretching and aligning all major muscle groups resulting in power, physical grace, stamina and significant body change.

“It is the only bar workout that is held in a health studio that is connected with skilled physical therapists who can guide and ensure joint safety,” says Williams, instructor. “Barre Basics emphasizes sculpting more than other bar workouts by targeting the muscles that play the largest role in changing the shape of the body. Every exercise includes active stretching and is followed by additional stretching to elongate the muscles just worked.”
