Combine the conditioning of Pilates, the flow of yoga, and the strength and coordination of ballet with our Barre Power Series. In this third and final class of our series, Olivia takes you through a challenging barre workout that will increase your heart rate whilst testing your coordination and balance with intense, compound movements. The class begins with a standing warm up that focuses on the quads and inner thighs. We then move to an intense, cardio focused barre section and end with some abdominal work with a pilates ball. Barre is a creative cardio workout for the whole body; improving condition and tone, posture, flexibility and balance. Each workout uses low impact, low weight, repeated isometric movements to help strengthen and tone your muscles without increasing bulk. The Barre Power Series of 3 progressive 45 minute classes, is a step by step guide through the fundamentals of barre; effective whether done individually or as a consecutive series. With options to modify or advance movements these low impact classes are suitable for all, and a great option for those working with limitations or who are pregnant.
