Booty barre

In days gone by the believed wisdom of exercise was that you joined the gym and only when enough hours had been pounded on that treadmill would you have the body of Elle MacPherson.

Not so anymore, there are so many different fun exercise options and we were thrilled to be asked to try the new Booty Barre class at Rebel 17 Studio. Promising to work your body in a slightly different way, barre will give you lean muscle and a strong core using ballet techniques at the barre. As a person who has never had the coordination to make it on and off a step or through a zumba class without causing injury to the surrounding exercisers, this was the perfect class. Slow controlled moves under the watchful eye of our brilliant instructor and my was it challenging.

The results of this class could still be felt 3 days later and isn’t that a great feeling. We will be returning to Rebel 17 to try more ,the benefits are endless, out of town, easy to park, great staff and a really interesting mix of Yoga, Pilates and Barre classes.
