“I’m 59 years old, and just over a year ago, I started doing Catie’s barre classes on my daughter’s recommendation. It was tough starting as a complete beginner at my age, but I persevered, and I’m now doing three classes a week and loving the results. I’m so much stronger and have so much more energy now. On a recent visit to my doctor for a DEXA scan, he was amazed to see that my bone density had improved significantly!
Her expertise, enthusiasm and kind and upbeat nature made our workouts so much fun. I constantly felt inspired and motivated and remained fit and healthy throughout my pregnancy. Thank you so much for EVERYTHING, Catie! I can’t wait to get back to our workouts postnatally.
“I have been a client of Catie’s for over five years. The results have come both physically and mentally, but my most proud achievement has been showing my children how disciplined and dedicated I am with my at-home workout routine. This has instilled a deeper perspective of well-being within our home, and I am indebted to Catie for giving me the courage and support to thrive.”
Barre Series is a low-impact, sweat-inducing, muscle-sculpting blend of ballet, Pilates and cardio. Although it’s inspired by dance, it’s grounded in Pilates and layers in (optional!) cardio. Classes are delivered online, on-demand, and in our Mayfair studio for you to sweat wherever and whenever you like.
Heck no! Barre Series is beginner friendly. We make it easy to follow whether or not you have a dance background by demonstrating exercises. Plus, we always start at the modification level, so you can add advancements when you’re ready—never before.
Absolutely! First, let us know if you’re prenatal or postnatal before class. We pride ourselves on being trained in prenatal and postnatal modifications and will let you know when it’s time to modify in class. You can email us or message us in the zoom chat.
Let us know if you have an injury before class, so we can note the injury on your file and share modifications with you throughout the class. You can email or message us in the zoom chat.
You can take any Barre Series class without equipment and still sweat like a 1980s Jane Fonda! A chair or countertop for your “barre” and a yoga mat for floor work will make the class more manageable. Grab 1–2 kg hand weights and a resistance band for advancements when ready for a challenge.
Comfortable, fitted workout wear is our go-to; it allows the instructor to see your body and provide helpful cues and corrections so you’re working out safely. If you’re working out on hardwood floors, barre socks are a lifesaver.
Heck yes! The beauty of barre’s low-impact workouts is you can exercise every day. Because we start with small, isolating movements and then work into bigger, lengthening movements, we’ll stretch your muscles and minimize tightness so you don’t feel as sore the day after your workout.
Results and goals are different for everyone, but if you’re taking class three days per week, you should start to feel stronger, agile and leaner after three weeks!
