7 Best barre classes in KL to tone and strengthen your body

Balletcore isn’t just for the fashion girlies! You jocks can get in on the action too. Stay fit with this graceful, high-endurance workout: barre.

When we talk about barre, the mind immediately thinks of ballet—and, true enough, this workout is based on the dance. Barre has been designed to help tone and strengthen your body, creating beautiful, lean muscles in the same way that traditional ballet does. This workout trains muscles that you wouldn’t normally target; parts of your body that your usual squats and sit-ups can’t reach. It’s basically a workout for those who want to look like a ballerina but have zero rhythm or dance skill.

Some might wonder, what’s the difference between pilates and barre? Simply put, pilates focuses on improving core strength while barre offers a more targeted muscle toning. If barre sounds like something that you’d be interested in trying, here are some barre classes to sign up for in KL.
