....Fit RX: Barre Body Studio....

Sunday, October 27, 2013


....I have been getting back into a pretty good workout routine..... these last few baby pounds are oh so difficult to melt away, I am trying not to stress myself out too much about them, I mean it is a struggle some days to find the time to get a workout in, but I know how important it is for my mind, body and soul to get moving..... I always feel better when I am incorporating fitness into my life, and I make healthier choices all around when I am not being lazy.....

....finding new and fun ways to try and melt away the extra lbs is always a win, so when my sister invited me to register for the newest craze in fitness I was very interested.... and a little apprehensive.... I mean I am no dancer.... and definetely no ballerina (Ha!), but neither is Jaclyn so I figured I should check it out with her and see what this Barre Body Studio is all about!

I just have to start off by saying we had a blast, our instructors name was Elisa,she is also one of the owners of the studio.... the class was one hour long and worked out all the areas I need working on (ie. full-body workout...)..... the class was fairly low-impact, incorporating a few weights for the arm excerises and a small ball for some of the glute excercises....

there are mirrors all over the place so you can check out your form.... (or in my case lack there of....) I am in no way, shape or form a dancer, but I did feel kind of like a ballerina in one of those movies standing next to the barre and doing plie's until my legs were shaking....

By the end of the one hour session I was ready for a beverage from the juicing bar in the foyer....mmmm so good.... and just what I needed after working off a few cals.....

The studio in Edmonton is brand new, but the company has been running out of Calgary for a while now.... I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a "change of scenery" in the fitness department, although the class has elements of yoga and pilates, it has its own unique vibe that isn't like anything else!

.....til next time...xo...CS
