BarreConcept classes at Barre Bootcamp, Worcester. BarreConcept classes at Barre Bootcamp - with Worcestershire’s only BarreConcept certified registered instructor. Coming to Worcester in July 2014.

Barre training is the latest fitness trend taking the UK by storm that has a celebrity following including Natalie Portman, Olivia Wilde, Denise Richards, Demi Moore and Madonna to name a few.

What is it?

This increasingly popular exercise regime incorporates the precision of Pilates with the positions, moves, grace and technique of ballet.  Add to this the alignment of yoga and strength from sports conditioning and you will have the aspects of a typical Barre workout.  The combined elements of the different methods fuse to form a challenging and exciting workout, which stretches and sculpts the muscles, whilst burning fat.  Balance, strength, stamina, power, flexibility and motor control all improve.  This workout produces dramatic results that sculpt and redefine the entire body, without even being a dancer.

BarreConcept has a specific way of working the muscles in order to give maximum benefits and results.  The low impact, total body workout lifts the butt, tones the thighs, flattens the abs and sculpts the arms, whilst protecting the joints.  In this high intensity workout, set to high energy music, small isometric contractions are performed and integrated with an interval training approach that burns fat and improves cardiovascular fitness.  Posture, flexibility, stamina and core strength improve.  The result is a body that is realigned, rebalanced and works harmoniously and efficiently.  Stretches are performed after each strength section of the class to ensure the muscles are re-lengthened to create a body that is strong without the added bulk of other regimes.  

If you want to hit a wide range of fitness goals – blast fat, improve flexibility, tone and shape up classic problem areas such as the thigh, bum and arms – BarreConcept classes are for you.
