barre3 — Local services in San Diego

This studio is a safe and calming space for me, and one of the activities I look forward to most in my day's. There are various instructors, all are talented, motivating and helpful. I really like the reservation system that ensures your spot in the studio and the ability to be waitlisted should your preferred class be waitlisted. I've had one opportunity to stay for a social hour after a class, and it was really fun and a great way to meet other like-minded people. The studio is open to anyone and I have always felt comfortable with the people around me, even though I don't know them, but I really like that it's a safe space for women. I don't have little ones, but they have an area for childcare during your class, which is really great for those that do. I expect to continue coming here for the time being, and I continue to look forward to it. My only advice if you're driving here is to arrive with time to find parking. The studio is surrounded by neighborhoods where the residents park and the main street does not have...

Since the studio opened in North Park in October, it's become my official third place (or, rather, second place, since home and work are the same). I love everything about barre3. Every single instructor is outstanding, the studio is beautiful, and the whole experience is positive and uplifting. The messaging of body positivity and inclusivity is real, and the instructors walk the talk. I love the way you are warmly greeted when you enter, and how the instructor is present in the lobby after class to chat with members. I appreciate that all the props are there and all I have to bring is my water bottle. The workout meets you where you are, and you can adapt it a myriad of ways to suit your personal needs or preferences (I love that "cheating" in other workouts is "options" in barre3). I've done a lot of group fitness in my life (especially dance-based). Barre3 is by far my favorite. I'm so grateful to have a studio in my...

One of the best things I’ve done for my physical and mental health is sign up for this incredible studio. I’ve never been a fan of group work-out classes and strength training has always seemed like a chore but my time at Barre3 has completely transformed my perspective. You get a full body workout, strength training, and cardio with awesome tunes and even more awesome instructors. The ones I’ve met are thoughtful, kind, authentic, and offer a variety of modifications so you never have to feel like you have to wreck yourself to keep up. Plus, no one is screaming at you to do more so you can burn more calories—it’s always about feeling good in your body and building health and strength. Is it a challenging hour? Oh yeah. Is it also an amazing full body work out you’ll look forward to every week? Abso-freaking-lutely. Seriously, grab a class, chat with the instructors, and discover your new favorite...
