[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"barre" classes are nothing like ballet barre. they just capitalize on the ballerina image. they are a fine "toning" workout, but you are just doing small range of motion conditioning exercise. you won't be surrounded by professional dancers. [/quote] Actually "real" barre classes were designed for ballet dancers and dancers have been taking them in their studios for probably close to 20 years. All the major studios in NYC did them in the 90s and my fellow dancer friends and i would do road trips occasionally to take classes and we always fit in Barre. Even though we were in top "dancer" shape we would definitely feel sore for a few days after. You're right that it's not the same as barre work that is done in the beginning of a ballet class. I'm sure there are classes out there that aren't the real deal. But if you go to a reputable class it's not just "range of motion exercises". If that is all you're getting out of one I'd look elsewhere.[/quote]
