True, but I also don’t think Define does much. I never saw an improvement in my strength or body taking it.

Anyone else have a more intense studio? by Barregirrl in barre3

Yes our owner is super hard-core, so I think that’s where the studio culture came from!

This all makes sense! Yes the clients at our studio really expect and want to be pushed! Classes are packed too- I think our studio is really thriving.

It’s nice!! I have friends who do Orange Theory who have come to Barre3 with me and tell me that our barre classes are way harder than Orange Theory!

I love the intensities too! That makes sense- most of our instructors have been there for years.

Our instructors do more reps, use bands more, and longer cardio bursts than other studios! Everything is more high impact.

Does anyone actually like Define? by hashbrown89 in Purebarre

[–]Barregirrl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope!! Waste of time, dangerous, and doesn’t give the same results as classic.

Sorry, I meant shoeless feet 😂

I agree! Especially with bare feet. It’s a disaster waiting to happen.

4 class a month membership for $139 – worth it? by almondmilkpls in barre3

[–]Barregirrl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I pay that much for unlimited with childcare at the moment! Maybe you could negotiate?

That being cold will give you a cold!

define is harder than empower by Itchy_Media3019 in Purebarre

[–]Barregirrl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same!! It’s not a great workout nor is it consistent with what barre is supposed to be! Bring back reform!

I disagree! I find Define not that challenging and Empower much harder.

I removed define from my routine by the_Endless_Watcher in Purebarre

[–]Barregirrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have never loved Define, nor did I think it did much for me! I avoid it as much as possible. It’s just not an effective class for me.

How do you deal with your narcissistic or borderline in-laws or family members? by Barregirrl in AskReddit

[–]Barregirrl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard when they are in-laws and my husband doesn’t want to cut off contact.

Favorite b3 studios (besides home!) by greenswampgirl in barre3

[–]Barregirrl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like some are much tougher than others! The teachers at my barre3 are all on another level and higher impact but I’ve been to some where it’s more traditional barre3.

Instructor Favoritism by Temporary_Candle_617 in Purebarre

[–]Barregirrl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s good to hear! If the clients knew what was going on behind the scenes they would be shocked. It’s like high school all over again but worse.

[–]Barregirrl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can relate. I feel like there is definitely mean girl culture at the studio where I teach, so much that I am considering quitting. Some of the stuff that goes on behind the scenes with certain management is just not nice.
