A beautiful studio and wonderful classes that focus on improving your body’s strength and balance but also help center your mind. I always leave feeling strong, energized, and centered. I would (and have) recommend Barre3 to friends looking for ways to spice up their fitness routines.

Ive done barre before and decided to try Barre3 because it had reopened and I was missing studio classes. After going for a couple weeks, I absolutely love it and appreciate the welcoming environment. The instructors are great and I love how I feel after class!

This space is so great, and I’m grateful for them. After my studio closed they’ve taken me in and made me feel incredibly comfortable. Everything feels covid safe, the staff is super friendly & the workouts/music are great. Thanks Barre3!

All the staff is incredibly friendship and enthusiastic, but not overwhelming - which is really nice! They all manage to be professional yet connect on a down to earth and personal basis. The classes themselves are challenging in a good way, and make you push yourself but allow modifications based on your own needs. Its also very fun! Would recommend to anyone :)

I have been attending barre3 to get ready for my upcoming wedding, and I love the combination of yoga-type moves and toning! The staff and instructors have all been warm and welcoming. I plan to keep coming back as the big day approaches.

I’ve completed my first week of classes and I LOVE it. This is the workout I have been looking for. My body feels recharged after completing each class. I struggle with lower back pain from bad posture and just after a week others have noticed a positive change in my posture. Looking forward to continuing my Barre journey with the excellent teaching staff at the Madison location!

Ive just started here as my usual Barre studio hasnt reopened due to Corona Virus. I am so grateful this studio is open. As someone with a genetic condition that is marked by lax and hypermobile joints, the last year has been challenging without my usual exercise classes.The staff has been incredibly courteous and the instructors understanding of my needs for modifications while in class, trying to rebuild strength without getting injured.I live East and will continue to commute West for these classes.Thanks so much to Barre 3 for helping me to start getting back to less pain, stronger and more joint stability.

It was a fun way to get back to exercise after staying at home for so long. They are still careful about social distance, and I feel safe with in person classes.

I love taking classes at Barre3. They are such a good mix of strength, balance, and cardio workouts and I love the the music and brightness of the studio. Everyone is also very welcoming which I value when I’m trying out a new workout I’m not as comfortable with.

Great classes- instructors create a very non-judgmental and welcoming atmosphere. Always encouraging you to modify and do what works for you. An excellent workout! I love that the livestream classes are different lengths of time - 30, 45, 60 minutes depending on how much time you have. Highly recommend!

Wonderful instructors, cute studio and encouraging environment. Every class provides something different which I really appreciate. The instructors are all really helpful and approachable. They’re very good about answering questions/ concerns and offering modifications based on your individual needs/ abilities. I feel like I am able to be push myself out of my comfort zone while still respecting my body.

I was really demotivated to get back into anything because of knee pain but knew I needed something aerobic and challenging to get into shape. Ive been loving class at Barre3 because they are careful with the movements but really push you to work hard at the same time. They have many great teachers and it is always a really welcoming and energizing experience. Never boring! Im not in shape yet, but I am on my way!

I love going to barre3! The women who work there always have a smile on their face and welcome you by name. If they don’t know your name they ask and get to know you. I only go once a week(as that’s what fits in my training schedule) but I love it. I always feel better after I’m done:)

Everyone at Barre3 Madison is warm and welcoming. They made me feel comfortable from my very first class and continue to push me so I receive the most out of my practice. I leave every class smiling and ready to start my day on a positive note. I highly recommend Barre3 to anyone wanting to better their mental and/or physical health!

A fun, vibrant studio that provides an encouraging and uplifting environment. Every class provides new poses which keep the practice interesting and inspiring. The instructors are knowledgeable and are always available for questions. They have excellent advice for modifying poses to help tailor each class to your own needs/comfort level.

Great studio. All instructors are great and make you feel comfortable. As someone with back problems, they are always attentive and checking in on me - even helping me with suggested modifications. Barre3 is the best in town.

Barre3 is a great workout. I have tried different variations of barre and decided to try barre 3’s 2 week introductory offer. The instructors have a great energy and are very welcoming. It’s a great workout for people at all stages!

An outstanding workout that is both challenging and approachable. Don’t be scared to try Barre 3. It’s the best way to workout and feel remarkable about spending time becoming stronger and healthier. Go all in and you’ll be so glad you did!

Before coming to the Barre3 Madison studio, I had never been to a barre class before. Consequently, I was very intimidated and nervous for my first class. I was alone and trying something completely new, scary! But right when I arrived at the studio I was welcomed with open arms and felt ten times more comfortable. The classes themselves are challenging in the best way. They push you to reach beyond the limitations of both your mind and body. All of the instructors that I have had the pleasure to meet are lively, empowering, and best of all accommodating to the needs of those taking their class. If you’re thinking of taking a class at Barre3 Madison I would totally recommend you do it right away!

Barre3 is one of the most welcoming studio environments I’ve ever been a part of. The workout is challenging, yet there are constant modifications being given to tailor the workout to your needs. I appreciate the community that has been created here.

I’ve been going to Barre3 in Madison for a few months now, but have been using the Barre3 online app for years. When I stepped in the Madison studio for first time, I felt welcomed immediately. The studio is absolutely beautiful and the staff - from the front desk receptionists to the instructors - are very friendly. The classes are challenging and rejuvenating, exactly what I expect. I really look forward to attending classes every week!!

Classes at this studio have been a joy! Instructors seem happy to be there, and classes are variable enough to keep things interesting each time while still remaining similar enough to keep me comfortable. Another big plus about this studio is that every class Ive attended has had folks who span a few decades of age. I love the spirit that exists in 20-somethings, 30-somethings, and 50/60-somethings exercising together in community, not competition.

Enjoy every class at Barre3! The instructors are knowledgeable and have helpful cues, the space is clean and beautiful with natural light coming in, and they have a variety of times on the schedule. I love the breath/meditation work during the last 5 minutes and always leave there feeling calmer, stronger and rejuvenated!

Barre3 is a great! The atmosphere is fun and inviting and the instructors are very supportive. They walk around the room throughout class to answer questions and help with any modifications you might need. The workouts are always challenging but also a lot of fun. Barre3 is by far my favorite barre studio in Madison!

I’ve gone to class a few times and am really enjoying it so far! The classes never seem to get any easier but understanding the flow of the class gets easier every time. The front desk staff and instructors have all been friendly and helpful.

I’ve never been much of an exercise/fitness class person, but I seriously love Barre3. The instructors are so friendly and accommodating to all fitness levels, and you can adjust your workout to fit your needs. Just plan to be sore for a few days after your first class!

Great class. I love when they turn the lights down low and crank the music! They also do great by allowing you to get a workout in that makes you sweat but won’t over do it!

Review №37

After trying different barre studios in Madison, I keep coming back to Barre3, because I feel like I get more cardio and a better overall strength workout. The classes always make me sweat, and I notice I am building overall strength and flexibility. After class, my posture and alignment feel more corrected than some yoga classes. The classes are a perfect mix of intensity and zen from beginning to end with helpful and motivated instructors.

Great studio, really welcoming staff, I felt at ease on day one. I have never been to another barre studio so I cannot compare, but Ive really enjoyed the classes. The instructors are always giving you options to make each posture more or less challenging.

I started taking regular barre3 classes in August, and have been delighted with my experience! Staff is friendly and helpful, and the teachers manage to make each class interesting, challenging, and effective. I feel stronger and motivated to go back. The space and amenities are great, and parking is easy.

Im a big fan of group classes and during Madison Fitness Week I figured Id give barre a try, hadnt tried one prior to attending a class at Barre3. The staff was very welcoming and the class was challenging, yet doable for first timers. I have since done more classes there, since I enjoyed my first one so much. Great workout and studio atmosphere!

Do the 14-day introductory offer! Its a great way to try as many classes/instructors as you want. The classes have a great variety of cardio, strength training, and stretching, so the hour-long class goes by really quickly. Friendly, welcoming, and helpful staff. A great workout!

I have tried so many versions of Barre, and NOTHING compares to Barre3! Missy, the owner, is spectacular. She makes sure you have the right form and pushes you to challenge yourself outside of your comfort zone. You will leave feeling ready to conquer the world!

Taking Barre3 class had helped a lot with my running because it concentrates on glute activation and core work. Ive noticed less back pain since taking these classes. Missy Dunn is a wonderful instructor.

I had a great time taking a few classes at Barre3 while in town for work. The staff is exceptionally welcoming, and I got in some great workouts with the very reasonable new client package offered (3 classes for $30). Thank you!!

Id definitely recommend barre3 for a fun workout!I was introduced to barre3 through ClassPass and Ive taken quite a few classes since then. I love that its kind of a mix of yoga, pilates, ballet, and some cardio. Im always sweating during a barre class, but Im also able to connect with my breath and focus on form.The barre3 staff members are welcoming and accommodating. I feel like a part of a community when I walk in. During classes, each instructor makes sure to provide verbal encouragement and assistance to ensure youre getting the most of the classes.The facility is clean, bright, and modern. They provide a hot tea and a water filling station, along with towels and some toiletries. Theres a small lot with 2 hour parking right outside barre3. Parking can be somewhat difficult, especially during times when classes are full (around 5:50pm), so Id recommend arriving early during those times.

Fantastic studio; great workout, great instructors, great location. Does wonders for the body and mind. Monthly membership is a great value if you plan to work out 2+ times a week. Comes with product discounts and other neat perks.

Review №57

I was nervous to try Barre, being pretty out of shape, but as someone whos not motivated to go to the regular gym I thought Id give something new a try. My first day there, I was welcomed and shown around the studio so I could get comfortable. The class kicked my butt, but I felt amazing afterwards and couldnt wait to go back.If youre hesitant to try Barre3, dont be! Their 3 classes for $30 deal for new clients is a great deal, and the instructors do a good job of giving modification options for newbies.

Review №62

Ive been taking class since 2015 and became a member about 1.5 years ago. If you like varied workouts that revolve around your core and cardio, give this studio a try. Every instructor knows what theyre doing and each is a positive, encouraging presence in the room. Classes fly by and are as challenging as you make them (since you use your own strength and resistance for many of the exercises). The studio space is full of natural light, clean, and welcoming. I cant enough good things about Barre3 Madison---the workouts, the people who work there, the people who take classes there, the space---its all great.

Review №63

Too much inconsistency among the instructors! If you can get Olivia, youll enjoy the class. Unfortunately Grace teaches at most of the times when Im available, and I find her classes frustrating. I usually leave angry. Now Ive stopped going. Grace lacks the mindfulness I learned is inherent to the Barre 3 vision. She shows a disregard for individual limitations and appropriate pacing. She skips over the essential steps of establishing a solid platform and isolating the correct muscle groups in a safe way. She impatiently accelerates from zero to sixty, skipping the more intermediate stages of each exercise to get to the most difficult, exhausting, and potentially injury-causing activities. Worst of all, she thinks its motivating to yell at us. If I wanted a boot camp class, I would have gone to one.
