The fitness industry is always changing.\u00a0\u00a0 The search for the newest, most innovative workouts and equipment is always on.\u00a0 Working out can become boring and monotonous, so the idea is if we do something different we will stay engaged and keep coming back for more.\u00a0 Innovation also becomes very important for each gym to stay competitive.\u00a0 The gym owner doesn\u2019t want his or her gym to be out of the loop when it comes to what\u2019s hot! Let\u2019s face it, if you are moving, squatting, lunging, using your arms, raising your heart rate, it doesn\u2019t really matter if you are boxing, dancing, or stepping, the results will be similar.\u00a0 However, we are a nation that is fast moving and is always looking for the next best thing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of the latest crazes is Ballet Barre.\u00a0 Now, I must say, I absolutely LOVE this workout, and I do think it is a keeper.\u00a0 Ballet barre or Fit Barre, or Barre 3 or Pure Barre or any of the many Barre classes out there, are amazing for anyone.\u00a0 It is a low impact workout that works the entire body.\u00a0 It has great muscle toning components, focuses on posture, core and flexibility and also raises the heart rate.\u00a0 It is an aerobic workout which is great for specifically burning fat, which most people want.\u00a0 In addition, it brings us back to our childhood when dancing and moving was fun and not a chore.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ballet barre classes vary from studio to studio, so finding the class that you enjoy may take some seeking out.\u00a0 My barre class has a ton of ballet choreography so that you feel like you are actually in a dance class.\u00a0 The best part about a studio barre class is that you don\u2019t have to wear your hair in a bun or wear a black leotard with pink tights. \u00a0Moreover, there\u2019s no classical ballet music.\u00a0 This is just pure FUN! It doesn\u2019t matter what your age is or your fitness level, everyone will enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The fitness industry is always changing.\u00a0\u00a0 The search for the newest, most innovative workouts and equipment is always…\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":6088,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[66,63],"tags":[477,382,478,79],"class_list":{"0":"post-6090","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-spa-wellness","8":"category-workout","9":"tag-ballet-barre","10":"tag-exercise","11":"tag-fit-barre","12":"tag-fitness","13":"cs-entry","14":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"\n
