Barre for Beginners

women chatting about fitness classes in barre workout studio with instructor

You took the first step today - you're here! The next part is easy - let's get you ready for your first class.

At OpenBarre, we offer one class per month just for first-time clients, though you're welcome in any class you'd like to take. We hold intro classes on the 19th of each month. Advance registration is required, as space is limited and we want to keep intro classes on the smaller side. Plan on spending an hour and 15 minutes with us, touring the studio, having questions answered, and taking a Barre Express class with our studio-owner, Lauren. If our next intro class doesn't work with your schedule, we recommend starting with a Barre Express class. Whether you start with an intro or in one of our regularly scheduled classes, your first class is $10.

Just left my first class at OpenBarre with Lauren and I already scheduled my next one! What a perfect blend of difficulty and fun; this is an ideal environment for everyone regardless of your level of expertise. So thankful to have this great studio in College Park!

I've never been crazy about group workout classes but wanted to give barre a shot. It's a great workout that focuses on parts of my body I forget when I workout alone. Best of all, the atmosphere of the classes is more relaxed, less of the cheesy stuff that often comes with group experiences. Love the instructors and highly recommend this place.

This was my first time at OpenBarre and my first time at a Barre class in general and it was such a positive experience! Can’t thank Lauren enough for making me feel welcome and comfortable. Excited to come back!
