Barre in Lisbon: The Full-Body Workout You Didn’t Know You Needed
When I first heard about Barre, I had no idea what it was. Ballet? Stretching? Something only dancers did? But once I tried it, everything changed. It became one of my favourite ways to work out. Now, I’m here to tell you why Barre might just be the workout you didn’t know you needed.
What Exactly Is Barre?
Let’s keep it simple—Barre is a full-body workout that uses ballet-inspired moves mixed with Pilates, yoga, and functional training.
You don’t need to be a ballerina, and trust me, there’s no tutu required!
It’s low-impact but incredibly effective for toning your muscles, improving flexibility, and boosting core strength.
How Barre Transforms Your Body
You know those workouts that leave you feeling sore in places you didn’t even know had muscles? That’s Barre! It focuses on small, controlled movements.
You’ll do things like tiny leg lifts, core-focused planks, and light weight exercises for your arms. It’s these small moves that make a big difference.
During a class, you’ll notice your muscles shaking—that’s a good thing! It means you’re pushing your body just enough. And the best part? Barre is great for all fitness levels. Whether you’re new to working out or a regular gym-goer, you’ll feel the benefits.
