From the reviews
By far the best experience I’ve ever had working out! I’ve been a member going on 5 months now and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. From the instructors to the environment, the atmosphere is very welcoming and encouraging!
I've had such an incredible experience at Barre Nation. I was a complete newbie to Barre and was a little intimidated to begin. As soon as I walked in for the first time the studio was so beautiful and the people were so kind and accepting.
I just took my first class at Barre Nation. The shopping center in Nexton was easy to get to and had plenty of parking. The owner Nicole was very sweet. She gave me a tour and explained how everything worked. The class was great and everyone was very welcoming. The studio was beautiful and clean.
I joined Barre Nation to return to barre style workouts after years since I last attended such classes regularly. Nicole operates an outstanding operation - with amazing instructors, a great community, and so many fun and creative ways to make a hard workout a lot more enjoyable.
Your first ballet class at Barre Nation
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
