Ballet barre fitness is the newest (although not so new)trend to slim down and get fit. I am blessed that it has become partof my daily routine. I have been taking Pure Barre classes for about four years now, and teaching for over a year. Having battled my weight since I was...like...born, fitness has been critical to help me stay healthy and strong. As much as I loved (well, hated....then loved after...maybe) running, my knees and body took a beating. Now, after knee surgery, having a 2 and 4 year old, and looking forward to my40th birthday weeks away, I feel and look better than I did at 20-thanks to Pure Barre. As a runner and adreniline junkie, I did NOT like the idea of ballet...or yoga...or anything like it. I'd never danced. Elliptical, body pump, bootcamp. But Pure Barre was a shocking surprise and gift. It was tougher than running in many ways, and I felt better, stronger, and leaner in just a matter of weeks. Pure Barre is tough-and the first class was different and difficult. From then until now, it has never gotten easy. But it is a workout I can do every day, feeling more fit every workout, losing inches, and enjoying life til I am 80! And that is the beauty of Pure Barre. I can still indulge (to an extent)in my love of red wine, dark chocolate, and pistachios....yay! I am so passionate about the Pure Barre lifestyle, and it is a joy that in one hour of lifting, toning, burning...I have completed a TOTAL body workout. Cheers to Pure Barre Tampa.
