[quote=Anonymous]I am fat and I love barre.  I had a lot of body image issues and had a really difficult time even being aware of my body.  (For example, when they would ask in yoga "where is the tension in your body?" I couldn't tell you.)  As I have worked through my emotional stuff, I have truly come to love my body and to feel good about it largely because of going to Barre regularly.  I now have a smaller and more toned butt, have lost the cottage cheese on my legs, am starting to see development in my calf muscles and am stronger for other forms of exercise like yoga.  I recently went on a vacation where we walked like five miles a day and previously I would have struggled wtih this but this time I didn't because I have a stronger core.  I can lift heavier things and go up stairs more easily.  At my studio there are lots of women in their sixties and everyone is pleased with keeping and gaining flexibility.  It took me a year to be able to do a plank not on my knees, but I am gradually getting much stronger  I work on my form a lot and am always sore after a barre workout.  If you're not it's because you're doing it wrong.[/quote]
