There arent enough good words to write about The Bar Method Darien, but Ill try. A big thank you to the BMD owners, Anna and Lara, for opening up in Darien! They are the most motivated, professional, and caring women; the Manager, Erica, is the most hardworking, dedicated, fun, and coolest person. The whole team at BMD are so professional, sweet, and helpful.I have been going to Bar Method for the last month pretty consistently, and I have never felt better in my body. Long lean lines, flexibility, strength, motivation, and drive. I think I also grew an inch haha. It really checks all the boxes! This is the workout you jump out of bed for because you truly feel good while doing it. I have found my go-to place for always and couldnt be happier!!!!
They have gone to great extremes to make sure that everything is sanitized and safe. Everyone is spaced out, air purifiers, temperature is taken before entering. I’ve been doing the non-mask class and I feel completely safe. I’m impressed with all of the options they have given us- no mask, mandatory mask, zoom, outdoors. They have done an amazing job in such a tough environment. I’m grateful to be back in the studio with these amazing ladies!
The Bar Method Darien is a excellent place to workout if you want to strengthen your core and improve your posture. I joined shortly after they opened and go 4 times a week. I have gotten so much stronger, and walk taller. The staff is excellent with a hands on approach to make sure your are in the correct position so you do not hurt yourself. I cannot say enough good things about this location. If you are reading this come try a class, it is for all ages young and older!
BMD has changed my life! I finally found an exercise program that I really like. The teachers are top notch, knowledgeable and give spot on corrections to make sure you are doing the movements correctly.In addition, I especially like the way they explain the physiology during the workout and tell you what is important to focus on.I always feel rejuvenated after a class. I love the Bar Method!
I absolutely love The Bar Method Darien! The instructors are kind, friendly and dedicated to helping you get the most out of class. After just seven classes I saw significant changes in my body and felt changes in my energy level, and Ive been hooked ever since! The studio is also beautiful and the other clients are very welcoming. Convenient class times as well. All in all, a fantastic workout experience!
Such a great studio and workout! Staff does an amazing job keeping us safe and healthy by sanitizing everything and keeping a safe distance between class attendees.
Classes are great and your body asks to be coming back. They are not extremely hard but at the end of the day I feel the workout. The studio is very pleasant and clean.
Starting with the warm welcome in the lobby to the professional but fun instructors, Bar Method Darien is my number one fitness activity. I love the studio, the friendly vibe and my fellow classmates. I feel stronger and happier - definitely give it a try!
If I could give Bar Method Darien a million stars I would! BMD (whether on ZOOM or in the classroom) is a fantastic workout that provides proper alignment & targets all those special spots! It is a space that is warm, welcoming and feels like family! The owners, Anna & Lara, and their INCREDIBLE staff are AMAZING, friendly, caring and properly trained to give you the BEST, SAFEST workout! As a former dancer and instructor, I couldnt be more pleased! I take 6-7 classes per week & couldnt live without it! I highly recommend BMD!
Bar Method Darien is amazing in so many ways and im so happy to be apart of such a fun, caring, strong community. From the front desk staff to the instructors you feel like youve been coming here for years. Not to mention the level of support, motivation and care in every class to challenge your mind and body is so fulfilling and it truly is the best workout :)
FANTASTIC! The instructors are encouraging, friendly, and knowledgeable. The studio is bright and clean. The exercises are safe, and the instructors very carefully watch and correct form. This is the first time exercise has really clicked for me, and I credit this supportive environment!
Is it crazy to be addicted to something that’s good for you? Oh my bar method class, I do love you though I may be thinking something very different during the hour I’m with you! The instructors are welcoming, funny and serious about their classes, the studio is bright and clean and I strive to keep up with my fellow addicts!!
Saying yes to change is easy; following through with the yes can be hard. The Bar Method teachers make it easy for me to follow through with taking classes. They all exude a sense of warmth and joy and professionalism. I have confidence in their training. They are tuned into students bodies and adjust us so we are in proper form/position. This attention is welcome! There are so many classes to choose from throughout the day and into the evening. Women of all ages, shapes and sizes attend classes. Bottom line, it is challenging (you see results) and FUN!
Bar Method Darien is a top notch studio in every way! I’ve been a bar club member for 2years + and it has changed not only my body, but my life. The method works.. I absolutely love it!! I’m so grateful to the staff, and the owners who are masters at their craft!!
Love it. The classes are great. The teachers are amazing. The studio is clean an beautiful and everyone is very friendly and helpful... : )
Im obsessed with bar method. I had tried a bunch of different workouts and always felt like I was bulking up and was just exhausted after classes at other gyms. Bar Method really toned me out and its actually enjoyable! (ish...)
Bar method is just about the only thing that I will get my self in gear for at 5 AM. I have been a Bar fan for 10 + years and was thrilled when they opened in Darien. The instructors are focused solely on the students getting the most from class in an effective and safe way. Bar method is a great workout that I am totally addicted to. The studio is beautiful, the teachers are great - what more can I say- meet me st the Bar!
Having moved to the US from the UK I needed to find something to replace my beloved reformer Pilates. The Bar Method is just that thing! An amazing workout, with great teachers, and a fantastic mix of classes and challenges. A super friendly team (and clients), in a modern, clean and homely environment. Love it! Top of my recommend list!
Love love love this place! The best instruction and friendliest studio I have ever seen! There are no words to describe how fantastic the owners are. They create the most wonderful atmosphere, are professional and knowledgeable and best of all - this program makes a difference!
Fantastic all around work out. It’s an intense work out in a short period of time. The instructors make sure you do things correctly to avoid injury. I have never felt stronger!
I have done many different types of workouts, from Crossfit to Hot yoga and every time I come back to Bar Method I know why.. my body is always in the best shape while taking these classes. every instructor is so knowledgeable and aren’t just going through the motions they are so passionate about what they do it shows. The studio is welcoming and they make you feel like part of the family.. glad I’m back once again and so happy you guys are here!
For last decade I have tried: diets such as nutrisystem, weight watchers, kickboxing, Zumba, GYM memberships... did not work...Then my friend mentioned Bar and I have decided to try. Usually I go to classes or diet meetings once and then I stop... nothing motivated me... in last 16 days I went 10 times..I cannot stop going... love it. Makes me feel great... my neck stopped bothering me first time in 9 years... everyone is super nice and fun...I recommend Bar to everyone who has commitment issues, who is looking for motivation and overall good relaxing experience!Bar is the bestEka
Wonderful first class today, I have a history of multiple sports injuries and the teachers helped me modify everything. there were woman of all ages and sizes and it was delightful! I have tried many similar workouts and this was awesome!! thank you!
Very well trained instructors help you strive to do your best. Supportive, friendly, positive atmosphere and the workouts feel great! Modifications for injuries are encouraged. BMD is a wonderful place and a wonderful practice!
Outstanding studio, fantastic teachers and staff. Warm, welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for all ages, shapes and sizes. Consistency and quality of teaching keeps exercises safe and productive. Impossible to go wrong when joining the Bar Method in Darien.
By far the best class for me. The staff and instructors are extremely friendly and knowledgeable, not to mention they know everyone by name! I take anywhere from three to five classes a week. I absolutely love it and I’ve stuck with it!
The Bar Method Darien is by far the best barre studio I have ever been to. The instructors are all amazingly attentive and really want you to get the most from your workout. This is one of the only places who have made me excited to keep coming back.. even at 6am!
I love my Bar Method at the Darien studio. The staff and instructors are amazing and friendly. They always make sure you get the most out your work out and know every person by name. I have never kept with an exercise plan and I have been doing the Bar Method for over a year 3 to 4 Days a week. Thank you Anna and Lara.
A completely customized, positive, challenging and empowering barre class experience. Teachers provide excellent, hands on instruction and corrections to help you improve - actually allowing you to evolve through time. This is by far the best barre studio in Fairfield county. Above all I love the welcoming sense of community that you feel a part of the moment you step through the door. I was not really a fan of barre before I went here (and I had tried other studios). Now Im hooked! They also provide a multitude of classes every day - even at night or early AM so that working women can attend. I really appreciate that as many other gyms or studios of all kinds in fct only seem to cater to the women that take class 10-4pm.
I’ve been going to the Bar Method Darien for about a year now and love it there. The faculty itself is great - lockers, showers, amenities, etc. The instructors are fantastic - always willing to help you if you need some assistance, caring about your form during the workout, and just generally being friendly, helpful, and kind. The workout itself is challenging and makes you feel like you are really changing your body for the better. Overall, my favorite workout ever!
I LOVE bar method darien! All of the instructors are so nice and a joy to take class with. The classes are adaptable for all fitness levels and the studio is warm and welcoming to new comers.
Great classes and terrific and caring instructors. Very professionally run but fun as well! A++
The Darien Bar Method is awesome in every way. The studio is clean, bright and refreshing. Owners Anna & Lara are extremely professional, amazing instructors and two of the nicest people I know. All the instructors and staff are so welcoming, friendly and know each person by name. Its a feel good, happy place where you get an incredible full body workout. Im so happy that Anna & Lara brought the Bar Method to Darien and would encourage everyone to give it a try - youll get hooked!
Love this place. Warm, inviting and most importantly a challenging workout.
Its hard to truly love to exercise, but Bar Method Darien is an exception. I am challenged every class and the teachers care deeply for their students in a 100% judgment free zone.
I’ve been going to Bar Method Darien classes for almost a year now and I cannot say enough good things about it.The studio is clean and welcoming. The teachers empower and encourage you to push your workouts to the next level. I’ve toned in places I never even knew could be toned and have gained true strength and flexibility. Every class is STILL challenging.I’ve never been one to workout in a class structure but the Bar Method Darien has changed that. These classes are unique. You won’t regret trying it!
Approachable yet difficult classes. I always feel amazing after taking a class (and for days afterward!).
I have been taking classes at Bar Method Darien since December of 2016. I had not taken group classes before—having had personal trainers—but, love the energy and comradeship of the group. However, what makes it a superior exercise experience, is the knowledge and attention to detail shown by the instructors and the friendliness of not only the instructors, but all the staff.
I am enjoying my classes and already feel more flexible! The staff is so nice as well!
I can’t say enough about the Darien Bar Method. The owners and instructors are all incredibly supportive. Don’t be intimidated if this type of excerise is not in your comfort zone. It takes time and effort but the results are amazing. It’s truly a special place.
Total body transformation and great works out!! Awesome instructors and just great atmosphere . Definitely worth of trying sure you will like it!!
Great studio- well run, clean and the instructors are all fabulous - best schedule - no excuses!
The Bar Method Darien is a great Community of dedicated and engaging women: the owners, the Instructors, the staff and the clients. The classes are challenging and fun, with so many classes on the schedule every day that there is no excuse. The Instructors are clear, supportive and helpful, always insisting on correct form, to prevent injury.Results are amazing. After just 2 months, I am so much stronger. Critical for women of a certain age. I am very active and always thought I was in good shape. These tiny little isometric movements, (tucks, curls and squeezes) deliver A BIG PUNCH. I can attest.Studio is beautiful , organized and very clean. The owners are involved in the area and do alot of outreach to complimentary local businesses and charities.BMD is like Cheers, that iconic Boston Bar, where everybody knows your name. Dont be surprised to hear your name in a class.I highly recommend. A great group.
Want a fantastic work-out in judgement-free zone, then The Bar Method Darien is where you need to be! Owners, Anna and Lara and all the instructors are absolutely fabulous and have created a friendly, supportive and positive atmosphere for everyone who attends classes.
Love it. Results. Calming but challenging.
Amazing teachers keep you motivated. Beware... You will get addicted.
The Bar Method Darien studio is amazing! The workout and instructors are incredible and always ensure you peform each exercise safely and properly. I always leave class feeling stronger and more inspired! I cannot thank the Bar Method Darien enough for creating such a warm and positive atmosphere that motivates you to work hard and help you become the best version of yourself! Cant wait for many more classes to come!
If youre thinking about trying Bar Method Darien, do it! The teachers are kind, patient and talented -- and the work-out is amazing.
I cannot day enough good things about the BM Darien. I have taken every type of barre excercise class there is and nothing compares to the discipline, professionalism, fun and RESULTS of the bar method. Anna and Lara truly treat every client like they are a guest in their home, and all of the instructors lead with passion and purpose. I am a BM Darien client for life.
If you havent taken a class at the Bar Method Darien then you havent tried Barre class. And if you havent tried the Bar Method recently then you have no idea what you are missing. Although the basic technique is the same there is now a range of different classes and all sorts of new positions that are even more targeted and challenging.To become a Bar Method teacher is a long process that involves extensive training; so every class you take is safe and youll find the teacher knowledgable, hands on and helpful. No matter what your level of fitness there is a class for you. Ive been doing the method for many years and find it a great workout. The Bar Method is always demanding but also centering and calming.I especially love the Darien studio. The teachers are each different but all superb. The class schedule is accommodating with morning noon and night classes . I am a germaphobe so I love that the place is really clean. Be Warned: After taking a few classes at the Bar Method Darien you may become addicted.
Great teachers, amazing workout, lovely space and friendly community.
A great workout with amazing, knowledgeable teachers.
