Back to the Barre

It's time to head back to the barre for some Burnin', Tonin' and Liftin'!!!

I have been SO busy the past few months, and have not had time to schedule a PB sesh. I set all plans aside, and even said no to babysitting (extra cash $!!) so that I could make my date at the barre tonight!

I purchased an exercise similar to Pure Barre to use at home. It's set up very differently, but some of the moves are the same that we use in PB. I liked it.... BUT I still love PB more. 


So I purchased the new PB Flatirons 2 dvd! It mailed out right away and I got to Lift, Tone and Burn with Carrie herself right in my living room!! I was even a little sore the next day! This dvd is a great fill-in when you can't make it to a Pure Barre class, or you need a quick workout in the morning.

I LOVE pure barre, I rave about it (whenever I am actively going, that is...). While the dvds are great, I really don't think anything compares to attending an actual class. The music is great, the burn is intense, my thighs are usually shaking uncontrollably, and I LOVE every minute of it! I really think having the right instructor makes all the difference! Luckily, PB Lex has GREAT instructors. I have only had a handful of different instructors, because I'm pretty loyal to one in particular, Catherine. She was my first instructor when I took PB last fall, and was so sweet. She has a GREAT class and is so helpful throughout. Lex girls, if you've been debating taking a class or not, TAKE ONE! Catherine does classes on Tues and Weds nights AND Mon and Wed in the earllllly morning (5:30 am WAY to early for me to work out, but, hey it may work for you!). I promise, take one class and you won't regret it!.

I'm thinking I'm going to reward myself with a new Lululemon purchase tonight :) I deserve it, right?!

  1. Soooo obviously I didn't see this prior to tweeting at you, "blog about PB!" I have wanted to go forever but I always talk myself out of it. I shouldn't be, but I'm self-conscious about it because I'm sure everyone there is thin, fit, and cute PB addicts! haha. I might have to go with you sometime!
