BeyondBarre Philosophy

The philosophy behind our barre exercise program

BeyondBarre is the company behind the hottest fitness movement—a true cardio-infused ballet-barre workout.  The BeyondBarre program is unlike any other thanks to its creative design and limitless workout variations.  Each class includes barre exercises to firm the thighs and lift the seat, arm-toning work using light weights, an ab series to narrow the waistline and cardio to melt the pounds away.  This is not your little girl’s ballet class!

This challenging, fun workout focuses on proper form and body alignment to avoid strain and injury and produce optimum body-transforming results.  Because there are modifications for each exercise, the program can be done by all fitness levels— from out-of-shape beginners and those slowed by stiff muscles to fit athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Designed by New York Pilates In Motion owner Colleen Ketchum, a certified Power Pilates Instructor, and Michelle DuVall a dance professional and fellow Power Pilates teacher, the BeyondBarre exercise program focuses on proper form and body alignment to avoid strain and injury and produce optimum body transforming results. And because they included modifications for each exercise, the program can be done by ALL fitness levels.
